We developed, deployed, and demonstrated an MPC in a large office building from 2020 to 2025, an uncommonly long duration for MPC field research that has enabled us to gain valuable insights. The MPC achieved 45% energy savings in efficiency mode and an estimated 61% annual cost reduction under experimental dynamic prices compared to baseline rule-based control, leveraging thermal mass for load shifting across all four seasons. However, the demonstration revealed critical barriers to broader adoption: uncertain cost-to-benefit ratios, including dependence on specialized expertise for deployment, integration hurdles due to proprietary and many different data streams (APIs/protocols), gaining facility staff trust, and updating the Building Management System (BMS).
