Abstract :
The future home energy management system (HEMS) in smart grid will need to include contractual grid regulations imposed by the utility while also taking into consideration the domestic users´ comfort, preferences, budget, and security. The emerging autonomous demand response (ADR) programs have initiated steps in utilizing sophisticated software algorithms for the scheduling and optimization of HEMS. This paper proposes a system of systems approach as a versatile energy scheduling system that takes into account the components, characteristics and methodologies required for achieving an efficient level of energy consumption in the residential sector of the smart grid.
