Abstract-Smart Grids are smart networks of energy transmission and distribution that enable a two-way communication between the consumer and distributor. Smart Grids are important for energy sustainability and environmental preservation avoiding the non-renewable energy consumption since decentralized suppliers are able to supply energy demands through renewable energy. It will be possible to encourage renewable energy consumption using a dynamic pricing adopting different prices to each energy source. Some network and security issues arise with that network communication like if it will be able to calculate the price in a suitable time interval. So a challenge is to analyze the impact of ICT on this operation. We analyzed the impact of a dynamic pricing on consumption changes and energy generation, and the delay time to calculate the price in a clustered network architecture.

“…As broadly revealed and investigated, sustainability is a crucial topic covering different areas within electrical grids, where the convergence for smart grids is recognized as a priority [1]. Inside the extended scope of smart grids, many technologies are emerging and other are coming up again, such as the possibility of DC electrical grids [2][3].…”

As it has been recognized, mainly over the last decades, PFC rectifiers are more and more fundamental and are increasingly present in several applications in the perspective of limiting power quality problems. In line with this reality, this paper proposes a novel topology of single-phase PFC rectifier. On the AC-side, the proposed PFC rectifier operates with sinusoidal current in phase with the voltage, but, additionally, it presents these very important advantages: Multilevel voltage operation; Interleaved-based current control; Modular design, allowing to establish n DC interfaces on the DC-side. The proposed PFC rectifier is comprehensively detailed, and the validation is carried out with a configuration that allows to have two independent DC interfaces, resulting in an operation with five different voltage levels, and in a current control with a ripple with a frequency that corresponds to four times the value of the switching frequency of each switching device. The validation was carried out addressing the operation of the proposed PFC rectifier in steady-state and transient-state.

“…In addition, the number of homes recently that utilize the energy generated by a distributed energy resource (DER) system (e.g. a small size photovoltaic system or wind power system) is increasing [2]. However, there are limitations of appliances to increase the energy efficiency, and though the price of a DER system has fallen, it is still too expensive to install in every household, like a TV.…”

Energy saving has attracted great attention as a global issue because of recent environmental problems. As a part of energy saving efforts, governments are operating policies that encourage the distribution of energy saving systems. Also, individual households are voluntarily installing energy saving systems to reduce electric power consumption. However, due to fixed system architecture, the existing systems have a disadvantage, lacking in scalability and usability. In addition, the existing systems bring up immense inconvenience as it returns to standby mode after automatic standby power cut-off. Therefore, we propose an intelligent energy saving system to solve these problems. The proposed system controls the power based on the hierarchical relationship among home appliances, along with the relationship between user activity and home appliances for standby power reduction. We designed and implemented the proposed system, deployed it in the test bed, and measured the total power consumption to verify the system performance. The proposed system reduces total power consumption up to 10.5% 1 .Index Terms -intelligent energy saving system, zero-energy home, standby power reduction, energy saving outlet.
