The potential affinity of these buildings is coping energy sustainability, security and reliability. Building energy management has been primarily associated with development and implementation of an efficient control scheme. The challenging task of building controls is to achieve indoor building environment comfort with improved energy efficiency. In this study, multi-agent control system has been developed in combination with stochastic intelligent optimization. The multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) and hybrid multi-objective genetic algorithm (HMOGA) are used as optimization algorithms. The corresponding case study simulations of effective management of energy and user comfort are presented. The developed control system provides substantial enhancement in energy efficiency and indoor environmental comfort in smart buildings. An energy efficiency of 31.6 has been achieved with an 8.1 improvement of comfort index using the HMOGA technique. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
