In the large-scale industries, optimization of multi-type energy systems to minimize the total
energy cost is of great importance and has received worldwide attentions. In the real …

When operated in a highly humid environment, frost may accumulate on the surface of the
outdoor coil in air source heat pump units (ASHPs), leading to a reduction in its output …

Systematic interactions between buildings, vehicles, and renewables can increase eco-
economic viability on a neighbourhood scale. In this study, an interactive buildings-vehicles …

Heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems provide a comfortable indoor
thermal environment, but in the process of attaining appropriate indoor thermal comfort …

Distributed energy systems (DESs) are regarded as promising systems for integrating
