Abstract:
This paper describes a simulator for smart load management of standard household appliances as a base for later on-chip integration. The idea is to optimize and balance the overall power consumption of a household. Implemented devices in this work provide different stages of internal management intelligence in the view of shifting and forecasting their energy load profiles. This enables customers and energy suppliers to utilize the available electrical power in an optimized way. The simulated appliances can be run together with real household appliances to predict energy consumptions for bigger and more complex households.
