    Novel Functionalities of Smart Home Devices for the Elastic Energy Management Algorithm
    (Basel : MDPI, 2022) Powroźnik, Piotr; Szcześniak, Paweł; Sobolewski, Łukasz; Piotrowski, Krzysztof
    Energy management in power systems is influenced by such factors as economic and ecological aspects. Increasing the use of electricity produced at a given time from renewable energy sources (RES) by employing the elastic energy management algorithm will allow for an increase in “green energy“ in the energy sector. At the same time, it can reduce the production of electricity from fossil fuels, which is a positive economic aspect. In addition, it will reduce the volume of energy from RES that have to be stored using expensive energy storage or sent to other parts of the grid. The model parameters proposed in the elastic energy management algorithm are discussed. In particular, attention is paid to the time shift, which allows for the acceleration or the delay in the start-up of smart appliances. The actions taken by the algorithm are aimed at maintaining a compromise between the user’s comfort and the requirements of distribution network operators. Establishing the value of the time shift parameter is based on GMDH neural networks and the regression method. In the simulation studies, the extension of selected activities related to the tasks performed in households and its impact on the user’s comfort as well as the response to the increased generation of energy from renewable energy sources have been verified by the simulation research presented in this article. The widespread use of the new functionalities of smart appliance devices together with the elastic energy management algorithm is planned for the future. Such a combination of hardware and software will enable more effective energy management in smart grids, which will be part of national power systems.

    An Elastic Energy Management Algorithm in a Hierarchical Control System with Distributed Control Devices
    (Basel : MDPI, 2022) Powroźnik, Piotr; Szcześniak, Paweł; Turchan, Krzysztof; Krysik, Miłosz; Koropiecki, Igor; Piotrowski, Krzysztof
    In modern Electric Power Systems, emphasis is placed on the increasing share of electricity from renewable energy sources (PV, wind, hydro, etc.), at the expense of energy generated with the use of fossil fuels. This will lead to changes in energy supply. When there is excessive generation from RESs, there will be too much energy in the system, otherwise, there will be a shortage of energy. Therefore, smart devices should be introduced into the system, the operation of which can be initiated by the conditions of the power grid. This will allow the load profiles of the power grid to be changed and the electricity supply to be used more rationally. The article proposes an elastic energy management algorithm (EEM) in a hierarchical control system with distributed control devices for controlling domestic smart appliances (SA). In the simulation part, scenarios of the algorithm’s operation were carried out for 1000 households with the use of the distribution of activities of individual SAs. In experimental studies, simplified results for three SA types and 100 devices for each type were presented. The obtained results confirm that, thanks to the use of SAs and the appropriate algorithm for their control, it is possible to change the load profile of the power grid. The efficacious operation of SAs will be possible thanks to the change of habits of electricity users, which is briefly described in the article.
