IT 최적화 기술을 이용한 지능형전력망 환경의 스마트 빌딩 전력 스케줄링

【With the recent advances in smart grid technologies and the increasing dissemination of smart meters, the power usage of each time unit can be detected in modern smart building environments. Thus, the utility company can adopt different price of electricity at each time slot considering the peak time. Korea government also announces the smart-grid roadmap that includes a law for realtime price of electricity. In this paper, we propose an efficient power scheduling scheme for smart buildings that adopt smart meters and real-time pricing of electricity. Our scheme dynamically changes the power mode of each consumer device according to the change of power rates. Specifically, we analyze the electricity demands and prices at each time, and then perform real-time power scheduling of consumer devices based on collaboration of each device. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme reduces the electricity charge of a smart building by up to 36.4%.】
