Fuzzy Efficient Energy Smart Home Management System for Renewable Energy Resources

An Optimized Home Energy Management System with Integrated Renewable Energy and Storage Resources

Traditional power grid and its demand-side management (DSM) techniques are centralized and mainly focus on industrial consumers. The ignorance of residential and commercial sectors in DSM activities degrades the overall performance of a conventional grid. Therefore, the concept of DSM and demand response (DR) via residential sector makes the smart grid (SG) superior over the traditional grid. I...

Fuzzy Based Expert System for Renewable Energy Management

The aim of this work is determine the most appropriated period for connecting a particular generation source fuelled by biogas on a distribution network. The main electrical characteristics of the network are evaluated. The proposed simulations provided data for analyzing the quantitative parameters – voltage levels, power losses and load current. A group of decision makers was selected for est...

Communication Network Architectures for Smart-House with Renewable Energy Resources

With the microgrid revolution, each house will have the ability to meet its own energy needs locally from renewable energy sources such as solar or wind. However, real-time data gathering, energy management and control of renewable energy systems will depend mainly on the performance of the communications infrastructure. This paper describes the design of a communication network architecture us...
