Abstract
Carbon footprint management for structures is disclosed. In an example, a method includes determining a value of a first carbon footprint of the structure when operated at an existing demand for a first time period, and comparing the value of the first carbon footprint to a value of a prorated carbon cap of the structure for the first time period. If the first carbon footprint is less than or equal to the prorated carbon cap, the structure is operated for a second time period according to the existing demand or other demand that keeps a second carbon footprint of the structure below a prorated carbon cap for the second time period. Otherwise, the demand is adjusted to bring the second carbon footprint to approximate the prorated carbon cap for the second time period, and the structure is operated according to the adjusted demand for the second time period.
