<p>Solar power plants using environmentally friendly technology in the process of harvesting energy from the sun can be a solution to the future electricity crisis so that it has been the most widely developed and reliable alternative. However, the conversion of solar energy depends on the availability and conditions of sunlight. In sunny conditions, the PV system can serve large loads while charging the battery to the maximum. While in cloudy weather conditions or at night, the PV system serves the load and without charge of the battery. The battery will discharge the stored energy until it runs out, and the supply to the load will be cut off before the desired time. Therefore, research on the PV system loading management system is needed to increase the amount of electricity from solar energy and maintain the continuity of electricity supply to the load. The load power management strategy follows the conditions of sunny, cloudy, rainy, or night time by considering the remaining capacity of the battery that can be used. Load installations are designed to consist of low, medium, and high load installations. Simulation results show that the use of PV loading management strategies can increase the operating time of the PV system. When the remaining less than 10% battery capacity and PLN supply is available, the supply will be switched to PLN. The remaining 10% of PV battery capacity could be used to maintain electricity supply to a low load if the PLN supply interrupted. Thus, the use of a loading management strategy will increase the electricity supply from renewable energy and improve the sustainability of electricity supply.</p>

The public lighting system was being a vital part all over the world for many years. Indeed, as the number of population and urbanism grow, this system is becoming a primordial part of our life comfort. Therefore, it is used extensively leading to an increased important amount of electrical energy being consumed. This paper proposes an idea of an intelligent energy management system (EMS) for public lightening system consumption based on an autonomous hybrid sources of electrical energy. It is composed of a PV system installed at the top of the lightening system and a battery storage system, where an intelligent energy management system is used to ensure the charging of the battery during the daylight with the option of supporting the PV system production in case of low period irradiation during the day. Whereas, during the night, the battery fully powers the lightening system. In the same for the protection of the battery system and its related lifespan, the proposed (EMS) takes into accounts this issue. Furthermore, this system has the ability of recognizing accurately the basic data on the length of the day, the sunrise time and sunset time automatically based on the location of the used public lightening system which is defined by its longitude and latitude. The proposed EMS is built around a special electronics card including display screen of main information with the insertion of special sensors such as current and voltage sensors, which were built by the authors. The proposed system has been tested in a known location where the obtained results prove the validity of the proposed management system for ensuring the operation of the public lightening system.

In this paper, three distinct distributed energy resources (DERs) modules have been built based on demand side management (DSM), and their use in power management of dwelling in future smart cities has been investigated. The investigated modules for DERs system are: incorporation of load shedding, reduction of grid penetration with renewable energy systems (RES), and implementation of home energy management systems (HEMS). The suggested approaches offer new potential for improving demand side efficiency and helping to minimize energy demand during peak hours. The main aim of this work was to investigate and explore how a specific DSM strategy for DER may assist in reducing energy usage while increasing efficiency by utilizing new developing technology. The Electrical Power System Analysis (ETAP) software was used to model and assess the integration of distributed generation, such as RES, in order to use local power storage. An energy management system has been used to evaluate a PV system with an individual household load, which proved beneficial when evaluating its potential to generate about 20–25% of the total domestic load. In this study, we have investigated how smart home appliances’ energy consumption may be minimized and explained why a management system is required to optimally utilize a PV system. Furthermore, the effect of integration of wind turbines to power networks to reduce the load on the main power grid has also been studied. The study revealed that smart grids improve energy efficiency, security, and management whilst creating environmental awareness for consumers with regards to power usage.
