Autonomous Integration of Distributed Energy Sources and Home Appliances Coordination Scheme in Future Smart Grid Networks

Abstract

Abstract Currently world is trying to sweep over new challenges in energy market, such as climate change, demand response, energy conservation, etc. These issues cannot be overcome with the conventional power system. It needs to promote the existing power system to improve the efficiency, sustainability at lower cost. The next era of power system, known as Smart Grid(SG) is a combination of Information, Technology and Computer (ITC) with the conventional power system. New ideas and emerging technologies are already being used such as IED (Intelligent Electronics Device), SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and AMI(Automatic Metering Infrastructure). But these methods fail to integrate renewable energy sources with grid. In this work Autonomous Integration of Distributed Energy Sources (AIDES) method along with new Home Appliance Coordination Scheme (HACS) for scheduling of domestic appliance is proposed. This method minimizes the load on live grid and increase the participation of renewable energy sources in our daily energy consumption. Appropriate use of this scheme provides the solutions for energy management issues in smart grids as confirmed by simulation results.
