Abstract:
A method for operating HVAC equipment includes obtaining building data for each of a plurality of time steps. The building data relates to resource usage of HVAC equipment. The method also includes calculating a recursive residual for each of a plurality of overlapping time periods using the building data. Each overlapping time period includes a subset of the plurality of time steps. The method also includes, for each of the plurality of time steps, calculating a metric based on the recursive residuals for overlapping time periods that end on or before the time step and automatically detecting a change in static factors for one or more buildings served by the HVAC equipment by comparing the metrics for the plurality of time steps based on a statistical property of the metrics.

Claim (Index 9):
The controller of  claim 7 , wherein the instructions cause the one or more processors to:\n gather third data from a building management system in response to a determination that a change affecting the building's energy usage has occurred; use the third data gathered after the change has occurred to generate a third energy usage model for the building; and use the third energy usage model to generate and transmit control signals for the HVAC equipment.
