Robust load scheduling in a smart home with photovoltaic system

A robust optimization model was proposed for smart home load scheduling to tackle the uncertain challenges brought by PV system, in which an adaption parameter, Γ, is defined to control the robust level of the final optimal solution. The proposed robust optimization is capable of producing load schedules with different electricity cost and robust levels. Final decisions can be made as a tradeoff according to users’ financial situation and risk preferenc
