Abstract
This paper presents a model predictive control (MPC) methodology for integrating air-based photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) systems in school buildings. The methodology is developed based on a case study for an archetype fully electric school building in Québec, Canada. A data‐driven grey‐box model for the classrooms is calibrated with measured data, and a PV/T model is developed. These models are integrated to apply MPC to the school building using the established dynamic tariffs for morning and evening peaks. Three scenarios are investigated and compared: (1) A reference case without a PV or PV/T system, (2) Integration of a PV system and MPC, and (3) Integration of a PV/T system and MPC under a demand response scenario. Results show that using the MPC with PV/T integration can reduce peak demand by up to 100% during high-demand periods for the grid. This methodology is scalable and can be transferable to other institutional buildings.Abbreviations: PV: Photovoltaics system; BIPV/T: Building integrated photovoltaic and thermal system; COP: Coefficient of performance; CV-RMSE: Root-mean-square error; DR: Demand response; DSM: Demand-side management; HRV: Heat recovery ventilator; HVAC: Heating ventilation and air conditioning; IEQ: Indoor environmental quality; MPC: Model predictive control; RC model: Resistance-capacitance model; RES: Renewable energy sources

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
