PACE
is a weather-based energy control system. It compensates for the effects
of temperature, wind, solar gain, and rain on the perimeter walls of a building.
PACE does not use interior air temperature as a reference point as do conventional
control systems. Instead, a PACE system maintains an economical
steady-state
comfort level because it is based on the principle of replacing heat at
the same rate it is lost from the building envelope.
