Abstract

Advances in smart grid technologies have been proven to improve energy efficiency. These technologies will drive significant changes of energy consumption operation, energy management, energy using patterns, and customer services. In order to achieve energy saving efficiently and provide smart services automatically for users, the architecture of a smart energy monitoring and management system is proposed in this paper. By monitoring the power consumption information, environment information and users’ situation information, the system based on the architecture can calculate the proportion of wasted energy consumption based on the energy consumption statistic, provide smart services based on the person-device interaction, and forecast the energy consumption based on the user energy consumption behaviors. The system is combined with cloud computing for data storage and processing. This paper describes the design and partial implementation of the system architecture.
