Abstract

To reduce energy consumption and wastage, effective energy management at home is key and an integral part of the future Smart Grid. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of Green Home Service (GHS) for home energy management. Our approach addresses the key issues of home energy management in Smart Grid: a holistic management solution, improved device manageability, and an enabler of Demand-Response. We also present the scheduling algorithms in GHS for smart energy management and show the results in simulation studies.
