Multi-objective framework for a home energy management system with the integration of solar energy and an electric vehicle using an augmented ε-constraint method and lexicographic optimization

Truong Hoang Bao Huy et al.

Summary: Recent innovations in smart grid technology have increased the utilization of advanced techniques and control methods, allowing consumers to purchase and sell electricity more flexibly. To support residential consumers in consuming energy efficiently, achieving high satisfaction levels, and meeting grid specifications, a comprehensive home energy management system (HEMS) is urgently needed. Existing studies have suggested simple HEMS models with limited objectives, but we propose a multi-objective HEMS model that fully utilizes different capabilities and optimizes energy cost, peak-to-average ratio (PAR), and discomfort index (DI).

Optimal sizing of renewable energy storage: A techno-economic analysis of hydrogen, battery and hybrid systems considering degradation and seasonal storage

Tay Son Le et al.

Summary: This paper presents the design and operation optimization of hydrogen/battery/hybrid energy storage systems considering component degradation and energy cost volatility. The study examines a real-world case study and demonstrates that the system in the tropical zone always provides a superior return when compared to a similar system in the temperate zone due to abundant solar resources. The results show that battery systems perform better than hydrogen systems in many situations, but if there is high seasonal variation and a high requirement for using renewable energy, using hydrogen for energy storage is more beneficial.

New perspectives on temporal changes in occupancy characteristics of residential buildings

Xin Zhou et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the occupancy patterns of residential buildings based on time-use survey data. It compared the data from 2008 and 2017 to reveal temporal changes in occupancy patterns and explore the influencing factors of behavioral change. The study found that residents spent more time at home on workdays and less time at home on weekends. Additionally, residents shifted from the living room to the bedroom in their homes. Age, education level, and employment status were identified as factors affecting the length of time spent at home.

Two-layer co-optimization method for a distributed energy system combining multiple energy storages

Jiacheng Guo et al.

Summary: With the rapid development of nearly zero-energy buildings, the establishment of a nearly zero-energy community composed of concentrated and contiguous nearly zero-energy buildings constitutes the future architectural trend. However, configuration and optimization research of distributed energy systems combining multiple energy storages (DES-MESs) for the nearly zero-energy community is not sufficiently mature. This paper proposes a DES-MES combining power-to-heat, power-to-cold and lithium batteries and a two-layer co-optimization method. The results show that the co-optimization method effectively balances the accuracy of the optimization results and calculation time.
