| Summary: | Abstract Economic profit is the main incentive for PV‐integrated residential prosumers, so energy management algorithms play a key role in these systems. The main priority of conventional rule‐based energy management systems (REMS) is to supply the demand. As a result, the total amount of energy sold to the distribution network, and consequently the user profit in such systems, is not considerable. This study proposes a smart energy management system (SEMS) for optimal energy management in a grid‐connected residential photovoltaic (PV) system, including battery as an energy storage unit. The proposed method, which is simulated by MATLAB, using real values for load and PV characteristics, will result in achieving an economic plan for battery operation based on a discretised state of charge of the battery. Experimental tests, carried out to verify the simulation results, demonstrate a noticeable increase in the prosumer benefits as well as the load profile correction compared to the classic energy management algorithms. |
