Abstract
An example control device includes memory storing a first thermal model of a building and a second thermal model of the building, and a processor connected to the memory. The processor is configured to select the first thermal model or the second thermal model as a selected thermal model, and execute model predictive control (MPC) using the selected thermal model to control a heating, cooling, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) apparatus at the building.
