Abstract
With the growing of irregular renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, are required energy backup solutions to establish an advantageous compromise between the energy production and consumption. Typically, these renewable energy sources are not installed at the end-users level, which can create the problem of uncontrolled distributed energy sources. In this research work we propose a solution based on the standard OpenADR to handle this problem, creating a platform based on internet–of-things capable to turn-on or off electrical devices based on a central decision process that meets the requirements of energy producers and consumers. Producers can provide energy according to the consumer’s requirements and take part of energy production and costs fluctuations. Based on an OpenADR standard for energy data exchange and a central cloud server, a list of services are provided to handle this transactions, with georeferenced information to minimize energy losses in the distribution process.
