The real-time management and control of Building Energy Systems (BES) is crucial for improving both energy resilience and efficiency. By utilizing real-time control alongside ongoing monitoring and adjusting to variations in energy supply and demand, BES ensures a consistent and dependable power supply for local areas, even during grid disruptions or power outages. Additionally, real-time operation facilitates demand response strategies, allowing users to effectively control their energy use and expenses. This approach is essential in updating and safeguarding modern energy infrastructure, contributing to its sustainability. In this work, system identification and parameter estimation techniques are used. The developed tools can be very useful in energy management and real-time control applications of building energy systems. A detailed model of the building energy system is also developed, which is the basis on which the applied identification techniques are based, as well as any real-time control system of the building energy system.
