Real-time energy scheduling for home energy management systems with an energy storage system and electric vehicle based on a supervised-learning-based strategy.

• A real-time energy scheduling strategy is proposed for a home energy management system (HEMS). • The HEMS integrates a supervised learning method to learn and mimic optimal actions of energy storage systems and electric vehicles. • The proposed method is validated using real-world data and compared with MADDPG-based and forecasting-based methods. • The results show the effectiveness of the proposed method for real-time energy scheduling. With rising energy costs and concerns about environmental sustainability, there is a growing need to deploy Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) that can efficiently manage household energy consumption. This paper proposes a new supervised-learning-based strategy for optimal energy scheduling of an HEMS that considers the integration of energy storage systems (ESS) and electric vehicles (EVs). The proposed supervised-learning-based HEMS framework aims to optimize the energy costs of households by forecasting the energy demand and simultaneously scheduling the charging and discharging operations of ESS and EV. From the scenarios extracted from historical data, the HEMS optimization problem is solved using a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) solver to collect the datasets on the optimal actions of the ESS and EV. Accordingly, a supervised learning method is used to learn the optimal actions of the MILP solver using deep neural networks (DNNs). Well-trained DNNs act as decision-making tools that are subsequently applied to predict near-optimal actions for ESS and EV based on real-time data. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through simulation results and compared with deep reinforcement learning-based and forecasting-based methods. The results show that the proposed method can significantly reduce energy costs and improve the efficiency of ESS and EV operations. Overall, the proposed supervised-learning-based HEMS offers a practical and effective solution for residential energy management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
