Title
A Meta-Heuristic Home Energy Management System
Abstract
In this work, we evaluate performance of home energy management system(HEM) by using three meta-heuristic optimization techniques: Harmony search algorithm (HSA), Bacterial foraging optimization (BFO) and Enhanced deferential evolution(EDE). We categorize appliances into three groups on the basis of their energy consumption pattern. Real time pricing (RTP) scheme is used for electricity bill calculation. Our objectives are to minimize electricity cost, energy consumption, reduction in peak to average ratio while maximizing user comfort. However, there exists a trade-off between different objectives. Our simulation results show that there exist a trade-off between user comfort and cost. Results also show that in terms of cost HSA perform better among other techniques.
