Intelligent Reasoning Rules for Home Energy Management (IRRHEM): Algeria Case Study

doi: 10.3390/app12041861
Algeria is characterized by extreme cold in winter and high heat and humidity in summer. This leads to an increase in the use of electrical appliances, which has a negative impact on electrical energy consumption and its high costs, especially with the high price of electricity in Algeria. In this context, artificial intelligence can help to regulate the daily consumption of electricity, by optimizing the exploitation of natural resources and alerting the individual to avoid energy wasting. This paper proposes a decision-making tool (IRRHEM) for managing electrical energy at smart home. The IRRHEM solution is based on three elements: the use of natural resources, the notification of the inhabitants in case of resources misuse or wasting behavior, and the aggregation of similar activities at same time. Additionally, based on the proposed intelligent reasoning rules, residents’ behavior and activities are represented by OWL (Ontology Web Language) and written and executed through SWRL (Semantic Web Rule Language). Finally, the (IRRHEM) solution is tested in a home located in Algiers city inhabited by a family of four persons. The IRRHEM performance evaluation results are very promising and show a 3.60% rate of energy saving.
