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.

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.

Is there a trade-off between energy costs and user satisfaction?

The trade-off between energy costs and user satisfaction is inevitable in the energy scheduling process. Users can adjust the settings of the HEMS model based on their preferences. Accordingly, the proposed method can be easily updated and improved to effectively adapt to user requirements.

What happens if an EV does not participate in energy scheduling?

In case the EV does not participate in the energy scheduling scheme, it is scheduled to charge immediately until its battery is full, similar to the base-load without DR. In some unexpected scenarios, users may need EVs for a spontaneous period, and the minimum capacity of the EV may not satisfy user satisfaction.
