Abstract
In a district cooling system different types of cooling generation can be combined (e.g., vapour compression chillers, absorption chillers, and free cooling). Controlling such complex systems in an efficient way is challenging: the cooling demand is much more difficult to predict than the heat demand and, as for absorption chillers, heat sources such as the solar energy and the waste heat are not predetermined by the designers
