TL;DR: Results show the relationship between the electricity flows and the storage capacity, which is not linear and becomes an important design criterion.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the development of a control system for demand-side management in the residential sector with Distributed Generation, which is composed of two modules: a scheduler and a coordinator, both implemented with neural networks.

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of the passive strategies used in Net Energy Plus Houses has been made, and the results reflect the impact of passive design strategies on the houses' comfort and efficiency, as well as their influence in helping to achieve the Zero Energy Buildings category.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the operation of an electrical demand side management (EDSM) system in a real solar house, which is implemented by a control system which schedules the tasks commanded by the user.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of uncertainty associated to the forecast of photovoltaic generation in a residential electrical system equipped with DSM techniques and a local storage system are analyzed in a solar house that is able to displace a residential user's load pattern, manage local storage and estimate forecasts of electricity generation.
