Abstract

Electrical power energy forms an indispensable part of human comfort. Numerous activities would have been impossible without the aid of electricity. The introduction of the PV solar system introduces additional challenges to engineers on how to increase the efficiency of the system. Micro grid PV generations spread world-wide by installing small size PV system on the roof top of residential properties. The maximum output of the PV system is at midday where working families are away from homes. Without the storage system, this energy can only be injected into the electrical grid. This paper introduces the concept of electrical management system for smart home. The proposed smart system allows percentage of the PV generated energy to be used during working hours. Also, the proposed system gives the individual a total control to maximize the use of generated energies, reduce the electricity bills and the impact on the environment.
