Abstract

Abstract : In this paper, an intelligent energy management system for the smart home that combines the solar energy as well as the energy from the battery storage devices has been proposed to reduce the dependency on the power grid and make the system to be more economical. The proposed system manages the energy requirement of the smart home by properly rescheduling and arranging the power flow between the energy storage devices, grid power, and the photovoltaics. The power grid can absorb the excess power from the designed system whenever the load requirement is low, and on the other hand, it can supply the power to the load in case of peak demand. Therefore, in the designed system, a user has the flexibility to sell the extra power for the purpose of revenue. A thorough simulation of the system has been carried out, and the results obtained show the effectiveness of the approach in terms of energy management between the different sources.
