Autonomous cycle of data analysis tasks for scheduling the use of controllable load appliances using renewable energy

International Conference on Computational Science and Computational Intelligence, 15/12/2021-17/12/2021, Estados Unidos.With the arrival of smart edifications with renewable energy generation capacities, new possibilities for optimizing the use of the energy network appear. In particular, this work defines a system that automatically generates hours of use of the controllable load appliances (washing machine, dishwasher, etc.) within these edifications, in such a way that the use of renewable energy is maximized. To achieve this, we are based on the hypothesis that depending on the climate, a prediction can be made of how much energy will be generated and, according to the behavior of the users, the energy demand required by these appliances. Following this hypothesis, we build an autonomous cycle of data analysis tasks composed of three tasks, two tasks for estimating the required load (demand) and the renewable energy produced (supply), coupled with a scheduling task to generate the plans of use of appliances. The results indicate that it is possible to carry out optimal scheduling of the use of appliances, but that they depend on the quality of the predictions of supply and demand.European CommissionAgencia Estatal de InvestigaciónJunta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Manch
