Design and Implementation of Intelligent Energy Distribution Management with Photovoltaic System Abstract:

As increasing power consumption is becoming a huge problem, renewable energy has been highlighted recently. Many companies and research centers study this new sustainable energy, and various products have appeared to the public. However, this kind of researches concentrates on the elemental technologies, and now a management system is needed to manage these technologies to maximize energy efficiency. In this paper, we propose the system of Intelligent Energy Distribution Management (iEDM) to monitor fast changing environmental variables and manage solar power flexibly. The proposed system involves Power monitoring device, Lightweight Power management system and Power Management System. The Power monitoring device monitors the power consumption of the device and transfers to the LWPMS (Light Weight Power Management System). The power management system collects the information of the power consumption and power generation. Based on the power storage this system decides to effectively use the power generation. The power utilization is decided in two modes: Efficiency oriented and User oriented. The Efficiency oriented method considers time, season & weather. Based on the environmental conditions and the season and time it decides to utilize the battery power or not. In the user oriented method it prioritizes the device and makes the device to be operated by the use of the battery power.

Existing System:
Power Consumption is more relayed on grid rather than renewable resources. No prioritized algorithm available for effective power consumption

Proposed System:
Solar Powered systems Efficient use of power generation & power consumption Switching supply to appliances based on priority of appliances.
