Load Matching, Grid Interaction, and Advanced Control - Modeling, Design, and Optimization of Net-Zero Energy Buildings - page 304

(2011) have identified four different kinds of indicators depending on (a)
whether theyrefer toload matching orgrid interaction and (b)whether they
can be obtained with on-site data only or need additional information (e.g.,
grid conditions). The four resulting categories of indicators, as shown in
Table 6.2 , are briefly discussed next. Some examples are presented for the
case of all-electric buildings.
