	abstract = {In light of the rapidly increasing global energy demand for cooling, energy-efficient cooling methods should be investigated. We use chiller-assisted nocturnal radiative cooling with photovoltaic-thermal collectors to cool a single-family house in Central European summer climate. A model predictive controller chooses between active and passive operation to cool a radiant slab at night to stay below an upper zone temperature limit during the following day. This goal is achieved with a high energy-efficiency ratio, compared to a conventional cooling system, while keeping the computational demands of the model predictive controller low. },
