MLx 2.0 optimal control of industrial heating and cooling using machine learning
FY 2022-23 · 2022-12-15
Summary
Building on the accomplishments of MLX-1, MLX-2 will focus on the application of machine learning and optimal control of industrial heating and cooling processes in selected markets.
The submitted proposal is to develop an Optimal Control application that will reduce energy use and GHG emissions in industrial heating and cooling plants by 10-15%. while maintaining stable, reliable plant operations.
Over the past four years, Mariner’s clients have expressed ever-growing interest in new forms of automation, and increasingly, automation enabled by the emerging capabilities of machine learning technology. This trend has accelerated even more by the impact of the Covid pandemic, which triggered a rapid move to digitize and automate both

Description (French)
S’appuyant sur les réalisations de MLX-1, MLX-2 se concentrera sur l’application de l’apprentissage automatique et du contrôle optimal des procédés de chauffage et de refroidissement industriels sur des marchés sélectionnés. La proposition soumise vise à développer une application de contrôle optimal qui réduira de 10 à 15 % la consommation d’énergie et les émissions de gaz à effet de serre dans les installations industrielles de chauffage et de refroidissement, tout en maintenant un fonctionnement stable et fiable des installations. Au cours des quatre dernières années, les clients de Mariner ont exprimé un intérêt toujours plus grand pour de nouvelles formes d’automatisation, et de plus en plus, une automatisation rendue possible par les capacités émergentes de la technologie d’apprentissage automatique. Cette tendance s’est encore accélérée avec l’impact de la pandémie de COVID-19, qui a accéléré le mouvement de numérisation et d’automatisation.
