Non Intrusive Load Identification for Smart Energy Management Systems

none6siIn an energy management (EM) perspective, an ob- jective function considering the balance of energy and resources needs to be optimized. To reach the goal, in a residential scenario, a number of tasks (typically appliances) can be managed (e.g. shifted). This paper proposes an unobtrusive cascade classifier approach to autonomously identify the different appliances and their priorities (shiftable, non interruptible, continuous loads) in EM algorithms based on smart plugs measures.noneG.
