INTELLIGENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR A SMART HOME INTEGRATED WITCH RENEWABLE ENERGY AND HEAT SUPPLY USING A STEAM GENERATOR

This paper proposes a smart energy management system for a smart home that combines solar energy and energy from storage devices to reduce dependence on the grid and make the system more economical. The proposed system manages the energy needs of a smart home by properly rescheduling and organising the flow of energy between energy storage devices, the grid and photovoltaic installations. The energy system can absorb excess power from the developed system when the load demand is low and on the other hand, it can supply energy to the load in case of peak demand. Thus, in the developed system, the user is able to sell additional power in order to generate revenue. Careful modelling of the system has been carried out and the results show the effectiveness of the approach in terms of managing energy between different sources
