Abstract

Abstract : This study presents a smart power strategy coordination for optimal electricity supply. It aims to coordinate the energy flow on the electrical system for a residential application in the southern area of the African continent, in conjunction with an intelligent demand management control strategy. It has been observed that there is a potential for renewable energy resources that can enhance the energy and development of the African continent if used efficiently. In addition, the continent is suffering from several energy crises, which could be resolved by appropriate energy control approaches. It has been observed that incorporating an autonomous smart strategy that can coordinate a hybrid energy supply for a residential energy demand could improve the power grid performance of the Southern African region. In this paper, a smart strategy that develops a dynamic real‐time energy structure control is proposed. This approach uses the ability of smart metering to create a flexible communication control strategy (FCCS), which will manage the demand and the supply of energy. It ensures the consumer's optimal power supply while ensuring stability and good performance on the utility side.
