Abstract
- • A novel hybrid stochastic-IGDT model is developed for HEM problems in nZEBs. • Real energy price and vehicle-to-home capability are properly modelled. • Unpredictable behavior of the electric vehicle is formulated via IGDT. • A bi-objective structure is presented to jointly optimize the energy consumption and cost using lexicographic optimization. • The problem is kept linear being solvable by standard solvers. Residential sector is being promoted to evolve towards nearly-Zero Energy Buildings (nZEBs), which draw a yearly net energy consumption near zero. This target can be attained through on-site renewable generation, achieving high efficiency in consumption. In this context, Home Energy Management (HEM) systems become an indispensable tool for obtaining optimally coordinating smart appliances, renewable generation, and on-site storage facilities. Due to the high unpredictability of renewable generation and some emerging appliances like electric vehicles, these tools must be able to deal with different uncertainties properly. At the same time, a variety of objectives are jointly considered. The existing approaches commonly fail to deal jointly with these two premises. This paper aims to fill this gap by developing a novel solution for HEM systems in nZEBs. The proposed procedure uses lexicographic optimization to find a compromise solution among objectives. At the same time, the variety of uncertainties caused by unpredictable weather, demand, energy pricing, and electric vehicle behavior is adequately modeled using a hybrid stochastic-Information Gap Decision Theory (IGDT) approach. The mathematical modeling is sufficiently comprehensive (comprising various energy sources and vehicle-to-home capability) and tractable due to its integer-linear structure. A case study on a benchmark nearly zero energy home is considered to validate the developed approach, which its results reveal its effectiveness in terms of minimizing various objective functions while the degree of robustness is preserved and the whole procedure is efficient yet.
