Abstract - Recently, countries are faced with an unreliable electric power supply to homes and the industry due to insufficient supply from the utility, causing load shedding. With the power utilities struggling to keep the lights on, there are initiatives to invest in backup power solutions and home energy management systems (HEMS) to manage this development. This paper analyzes energy consumption with the existing infrastructure of typical equipment used in homes. An approach called smart home energy management systems (SHEMS) is implemented to balance the power demand and the supply more effectively throughout the smart micro-grid by utilizing control algorithms simulated using MATLAB Simulink. This is achieved by utilizing real data from a home with commercial and residential load features in an urban area. The SHEMS revealed greater management and efficiency in electric power savings by reducing the utilities power demand. The framework adopts a local information management terminal as the core of data storage and scheduling in the home. Based on the timely purchase of electricity from the grid and the generation of electricity in combination with PV systems, an optimized simulation model for the scheduling of a new home energy management system is established. In addition, the application prospects of artificial intelligence in the HEMS are overviewed.
