Abstract
The paper demonstrates the fuzzy logic based smart distributed system to utilize the available energy optimally. We study the power system with two distributed sources of renewable energy like wind and solar together with normal power grid supply. Through the suitable allotter of the generation ratio from power sources, the distribution generation system, combined with battery bank, can provide user with reliable and constant electric power. Therefore a smart energy distributor is useful to supply energy to consumers such that their demand is supplied optimally depending available energy and battery status. In this work, a new distributor system is tested with fuzzy logic theory to satisfy the load demand constantly at the same time to keep the charging state of the battery at a safe level. Simulation results are also presented to illustrate the potential benefits of the smart distributor by maximizing the usage of renewable energy and depending less on the supply grid.https://doi.org/10.1071/SP14006
