Abstract

It is now clear that the future of energy passes through Smart Grids and prosumers, a new energy community, which encourages the reduction of traditional power plants, implementing the distributed generation formed by small self-production plants (micro-grid) by RES, allowing to the private sector to produce clean electricity. This transformation is also made possible by Smart Grids, which combine electronics and digital technologies, as ICT and IoT, to allow 2-way communication between the various points of the network. This allows monitoring, analysis, control and exchange of information in real time between the parties involved, to optimize the efficiency and reliability of the network, consumption and energy costs, for all participants in the energy market. There remains a strong limit linked to consumer interests, which often cannot decide between saving and energy efficiency and above all a lack of guarantee of its desires in terms of consumption and sales. With this paper we want introduce a model of control, through the fuzzy logic, for better prosumer experience, so that it can be helped in an objective way to the definition of its interests, whether economic or well-being for a real improvement of the quality of life.
