Popis: The conventional power system has been evolving towards a smart grid system for the past few decades. An integral step in successful realization of smart grid is to deploy renewable energy resources, particularly rooftop photovoltaic systems, at smart homes. With demand response opportunities in smart grid, residential customers can manage the utilization of their demand responsive appliances for getting economic benefits and incentives in return. In this regard, this paper proposes an effective home energy management system for residential customer to optimally schedule the demand responsive appliance in the presence of local photovoltaic and energy storage systems. For efficient home-to-grid energy transactions in home energy management system, the stochastic nature of photovoltaic power generation is modeled with the beta probability distribution function for solar irradiance. The main contribution of this paper is the application of polar bear optimization (PBO) method for optimally solving the scheduling problem of demand responsive appliances in home energy management system to minimize electricity consumption cost as well as peak-to-average ratio. The effectiveness of the proposed metaheuristic optimization technique is proven by performing different case studies for a residential consumer with different base load, uninterruptible deferrable, and interruptible deferrable appliances under a real-time energy price program. Comparative results with different metaheuristic techniques available in the literature show that the electricity consumption cost and peak-to-average ratio are effectively optimized using the proposed PBO algorithm.
