Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for controlling heating, ventilation, cooling, and potable hot water delivery. The method performed by a control unit includes receiving at least one input signal indicating thermal energy requirements associated with an Air Conditioning and Potable Hot Water (ACPH) system. In response to the at least one input signal, the method includes generating an operating scheme for at least generating thermal outcome corresponding to the thermal energy requirements based on the State of Charge (SoC) of a thermal store, parameters, and operating factors. Further, the method includes selectively operating the thermal store, and the plurality of thermal energy systems based on the operating scheme for supplying the thermal outcome corresponding to the thermal energy requirements. Furthermore, the method includes supplying the thermal outcome corresponding to the thermal energy requirements for at least space conditioning and delivery of potable hot water.
