Home energy storage system time synchronization

Does a home energy management system have a real-time energy scheduling strategy?

A real-time energy scheduling strategy is proposed for a home energy management system (HEMS). The HEMS integrates a supervised learning method to learn and mimic optimal actions of energy storage systems and electric vehicles. The proposed method is validated using real-world data and compared with MADDPG-based and forecasting-based methods.

What is synchronization in a power network?

Synchronization in a power network can be interpreted as a stable state when the pace of evolution of the electric angle in all generators across the network is identical; in a power network with n generators, it can be mathematically described by:

Does real-time energy scheduling work?

The results show the effectiveness of the proposed method for real-time energy scheduling. With rising energy costs and concerns about environmental sustainability, there is a growing need to deploy Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) that can efficiently manage household energy consumption.

What is an energy storage system (ESS)?

An ESS can store excess energy generated from RES and provide it during periods of high demand. Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular, and many households are investing in them to reduce their carbon footprints.

Can supervised learning be used for real-time energy scheduling?

The HEMS integrates a supervised learning method to learn and mimic optimal actions of energy storage systems and electric vehicles. The proposed method is validated using real-world data and compared with MADDPG-based and forecasting-based methods. The results show the effectiveness of the proposed method for real-time energy scheduling.

What is synchronized operation of a generator?

The synchronized operation of generators guarantees that the flow of electric power across the network remains stable and yields a homogeneous frequency at all nodes; i.e., a network frequency ( f ≈  (2 π) −1ωsync ).
