Abstract

In the introductory part, this paper summarizes the main aspects related to smart homes and home energy management (HEM) technologies and presents several existing HEM solutions. The proposed Electricity consumption management software tool for consumers - MY SMART HOME allows the management of the types of devices that facilitate the monitoring and optimization of electricity consumption: meters, smart devices, and sensors. A process for optimal scheduling of the devices was implemented, through a series of seven steps to be followed by the user. Some reporting solutions, both in graphical and tabular form, for analyzing the initial and optimal consumption per device, consumption place and household are offered.
