Abstract: Putting the nearly zero energy building (nZEB) idea into practice has not even come close to making a big difference, and volunteer naming methods do not seem to offer a good option either. The letters nZEB stand for 'nearly zero energy building'. To improve and back up standard bioclimatic design, this piece talks about the use of building automation control systems. It is usually the first one that determines long-term regular patterns, while the second one only affects activity in the short term. It is based on fair assumptions that they make their schedules, and the set points are changed after energy models are done. We created the best energy point tracking (MPPT) programme of the P&O type with the goal of getting as much power as possible from a solar system. The estimated operating temperature matches the adaptive comfort model for more than 98% of the reference year, and energy use is cut by 53%.

Keywords: PLC; solar power system; zero energy; energy sources.
