Abstract: A system includes a plurality of thermostats corresponding to a plurality of HVAC systems that serve a plurality of spaces and a computing system communicable with the plurality of thermostats via a network. The computing system is configured to, for each space of the plurality of spaces, obtain a set of training data relating to thermal behavior of the space, identify a model of thermal behavior of the space based on the set of training data, perform a model predictive control process using the model of thermal behavior of the space to obtain a temperature setpoint for the space, and provide the temperature setpoint to the thermostat corresponding to the HVAC system serving the space. The plurality of thermostats are configured to control the plurality of HVAC systems in accordance with the temperature setpoints.

Abstract: A facility management portal and associated user interface can be used for remote monitoring, servicing, and commissioning of a Building Management System (BMS) and associated devices. Building stakeholders can use the facility management portal to configure smart thermostat devices with various settings or parameters associated therewith. For example, building stakeholders may create device profiles associated with smart thermostat devices and provide different device profiles to different groups of thermostat devices installed in a building. Moreover, stakeholders can use the facility management portal to monitor data such as energy consumption and air quality associated with buildings. Building tenants can interact with control devices such as smart thermostats and associated mobile applications to initiate maintenance or emergency notifications relayed through the facility management portal.
