PV Integration by Building Energy Management

International audienceThis paper focuses on Energy Management System (EMS) applied to the residential sector. The EMS architecture is proposed. It is composed on three layers: anticipation, reactive and device (local) layers. However, to validate global control algorithms, a simulator capable of interoperating with energy management systems must be used. This work presents a solution for real-time simulation with a networked system that manages energy flows. It makes it possible to perform fine simulations of the physics, including fast dynamics of electrical appliances imbedded on the buildings. This paper deals with computing the starting times of some services in one hand and in determining set points of others on other hand; the maximal power constraints and predicted events are taken into account. A Satisfaction Problem formulation has been proposed. So, the purpose is to maximize user comfort and minimize energy costs. An application example is presented
