Abstract
Smart grid is considered as the next generation power grid by using new information and communication technologies as well as ensuring better sources' energy management and control. In order to test and validate new smart grid concepts and approaches, simulation has become a vital and suitable tool for the future grid research. Our Smart Grid Simulator (SGS) is designed to provide fine grained information on different power grid components such as energy consumption and production, time-use of appliances, time varying electricity prices, etc. In this paper several household's profiles has been set in order to model and emulate a wide range of different users. The architecture that supports our SGS concept is presented, as well as a preliminary test results of emulating different household's profiles in term of power consumption. The behavior of different appliances considered in each profile has been modeled in order to be as close as possible to real world model.
