A predictive building control system includes equipment operable to provide heating or cooling to a building and a predictive controller. The predictive controller includes one or more optimization controllers configured to perform an optimization to generate setpoints for the equipment at each time step of an optimization period subject to one or more constraints, a constraint generator configured to use a neural network model to generate the one or more constraints, and an equipment controller configured to operate the equipment to achieve the setpoints generated by the one or more optimization controllers at each time step of the optimization period.
