Method and system for intelligently recommending control schemes optimizing peak energy consumption of built environment

A computer system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory coupled to the one or more processors, the memory for storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• collect a first set of statistical data including current power consumption and past power consumption of a plurality of energy consuming devices within one or more built environments;
• fetch a second set of statistical data including an energy consumption behavior of each of a plurality of users and an occupancy pattern of the plurality of users present inside the one or more built environments based on occupancy sensors;
• accumulate a third set of statistical data including current and historical energy storage and supply capacity data of a plurality of energy storage and supply means of the one or more built environments including charging rates, discharging rates, temperature characteristics, energy storage and release capacity of the plurality of energy storage and supply means;
• receive a fourth set of statistical data including current and historical temperature data inside and outside of the one or more built environments;
• gather a fifth set of statistical data including current and historical recordings of energy pricing models affecting power consumption of the one or more built environments;
• analyze the first set of statistical data, the second set of statistical data, the third set of statistical data, the fourth set of statistical data, and the fifth set of statistical data using one or more statistical functions to generate a plurality of statistical results, the plurality of statistical results including an energy usage profile for each of the plurality of energy consuming devices, each of the plurality of energy storage devices, and each of the plurality of users;
• generate the one or more control schemes to control operations of the plurality of energy consuming devices and the plurality of energy storage and supply means based on the plurality of statistical results, the one or more control schemes including instructions for
• optimizing control of the plurality of energy consuming devices based on the first set of statistical data, the second set of statistical data, and the third set of statistical data;
• and
• automatically control the operation of the plurality of energy consuming devices and the energy storage and supply means based on the one or more control schemes.
