Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The rise in energy demand and the need for sustainable energy solutions have led to increased interest in renewable energy sources for residential applications. This thesis presents the design and implementation of an Intelligent Power Management System (IPMS) tailored for smart homes to efficiently integrate and utilize renewable energy sources. The study begins with an introduction to the background of the research, highlighting the increasing significance of renewable energy sources in the context of smart homes. The problem statement underscores the current challenges in managing power from renewable sources effectively in residential settings. The main objective of this study is to design and implement an IPMS that optimizes the utilization of renewable energy sources in smart homes while ensuring reliability and cost-effectiveness. The research methodology encompasses a comprehensive literature review covering key aspects of renewable energy integration, smart home technologies, power management systems, and relevant methodologies. The study also includes the development and testing of the proposed IPMS using simulation tools and practical experiments. The discussion of findings in Chapter Four delves into the performance evaluation of the IPMS in terms of energy efficiency, cost savings, and reliability. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the system in managing power from renewable sources and optimizing energy consumption in smart homes. The conclusion summarizes the key findings of the study, emphasizing the importance of intelligent power management systems in enhancing the integration of renewable energy sources in residential settings. In conclusion, the Design and Implementation of an Intelligent Power Management System for Renewable Energy Sources in Smart Homes presents a novel approach to addressing the challenges associated with renewable energy integration in smart homes. The proposed IPMS offers a feasible solution to optimize energy utilization, reduce costs, and promote sustainability in residential environments. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on smart grid technologies and renewable energy systems, with practical implications for the design and implementation of efficient power management systems in smart homes.
