Smart Home Energy Scheduling with Photovoltaic System

The integration of Photovoltaic (PV) system into home increasing the complexity of energy scheduling in smart home. But most of current papers concentrate on reducing the payment of the customer. There are few papers studying improve the consumption of PV energy to lead to environment advantages. This paper presents a new method for household energy management with PV system. This work address the PV energy consumption by the household compared to the existing works. The appliance model is given in mathematic model. The time-of-using pricing(TOUP) is used to solve the optimal problem. The objective function is a linear programming problem with absolute value. By introducing auxiliary variables, the objective function is changed to a typical linear programming problem that is easy to be solved.
