English Abstract

The design process of an efficient residential building energy management system is presented in this work.

The main objectives are achieving major energy cost reductions, providing safe home and reliable service.

Thus, the essentials tool of the system will focus on providing useful information for the user by continuous monitoring and recording of the consumption behavior of the home appliances, also will raise early alarms in case of fault detection by high temperature monitoring.

The outcomes of monitoring and analyzing real power demand of group of typical home appliances is then used for proposing further tools such as consumption forecast, tariff comparing and scheduling tools.

Rule based system is designed for efficient and reliable operation control of home energy system with distributed energy source and storage units.

LabVIEW software package is used for implementation of most of the proposed algorithms which have been tested by variation of possible operating conditions.

The results show that 22.75% energy savings can be achieved by applying the proposed tools and control strategies on typical home appliances.

Modification of the system is recommended to include wide range of consumers types such as industrial and commercial sectors and to include more than one type of distributed energy sources
