Smart home energy management with integration of PV and storage facilities providing grid support

In this paper, Smart Home Energy Management System (SEMS) is designed in distribution network to support grid. This system reduces stress on the grid by managing the loads and power distribution. This system uses renewable energy resources like PV cell as an alternate power source which helps in reducing dependence of home on the grid. It also has a distributed load management which maintains the loads according to grid condition thus improving the grid stability. SEMS also has storage facilities such as battery which helps in supplements such as peak shaving and valley filling.
