An Intelligent Load Management System With Renewable Energy Integration for Smart Homes

Demand side management (DSM) will play a significant role in the future smart grid by managing loads in a smart way. DSM programs, realized via home energy management systems for smart cities, provide many benefits; consumers enjoy electricity price savings and utility operates at reduced peak demand. In this paper, evolutionary algorithms-based (binary particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, and cuckoo search) DSM model for scheduling the appliances of residential users is presented. The model is simulated in time of use pricing environment for three cases: 1) traditional homes; 2) smart homes; and 3) smart homes with renewable energy sources. Simulation results show that the proposed model optimally schedules the appliances resulting in electricity bill and peaks reductions.
