Project Summary

Home Electricity Management System (HEMS) mechanism is used for the implementation of different strategies to encourage residential users to reduce electricity bill as well as energy demand. There is also a close relationship between the consumer and utility for equally benefiting to both in terms of grid stability and bill reduction. Extensive research is undertaken now a days in order to make practical implementation on the possible use of different HEMS strategies to regulate the energy demand and carbon emission reduction in the World.
A home automation system controlling household energy is proposed. It consists in computing the starting times of specific services and the set points of others while satisfying the maximal available power requirement and taking into account user comfort criteria. The objective is to maximize user comfort and minimize energy cost. An application example is presented. 

Project Objectives

 The presented algorithm manages power consumption by assigning the residential load according to utilities power supply events.
The major objective of this work is to study the HEMS-based approaches which could be helpful in achieving significant electricity demand reduction at the electricity distribution network which is directly connected to the commercial and residential sector especially.
In this work, we use an optimization algorithm to obtain the optimal solution for residential electricity load management in a typical household setting.

Project Implementation Method

A home automation system controlling household energy is proposed. It is broken down into three layers: an anticipative, a reactive and a device layer. This project focuses mainly on an anticipative layer that allocates energy by taking into account predicted events. It consists in computing the starting times of specific services and the set points of others while satisfying the maximal available power requirement and taking into account user comfort criteria.  User can also check and control the system status from  his mobile phone via Special purpose Mobile Application. 

Benefits of the Project

   Benefits of HEMS are as given:
Accurate load management during peak periods designed based on the house requirements
Real time monitoring of the portions or rooms performance,
Intelligent alarming capabilities for early power quality problems
Energy management
Power system efficiency
Save money by avoiding any penalty from the utility
Continuous monitoring for the power quality
Load control and management with proper methodology
Keep the consumption with the contracted limit
Fault diagnosis and alarming
         

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Electricity management allows consumers to reduce consumption of electricity during peak usage times (peak shaving), which can, in turn, reduce costs by eliminating the excess amount of energy.
We model a multi carrier energy home with residential energy hub framework.
An optimization problem is proposed to manage home load in the hub.
Home electrical demand shifts to low tariff and low demand hours by applying HEMS.
Home load management (HEMS) leads to lower customer payment cost.
