Integration of household appliances into energy management systems: A call to EMS manufacturers Munich, June 2024 - At Intersolar in Munich, it became clear that the integration of household appliances such as washing machines, dryers and dishwashers into energy management systems (EMS) is still being neglected. Although the integration of such appliances was shown on graphics at many trade fair stands, the actual realisation usually fails to materialise. The focus continues to be on heat pumps, battery systems and charging facilities for electric vehicles. However, for a holistic energy management system, household appliances must also be integrated as essential consumers. Many customers do not own heat pumps, battery storage systems or electric vehicles, but would still like to use the cheap electricity generated from their own roof or dynamic electricity tariffs as automatically as possible. Modern household appliances can already be controlled externally and can be started when cheap electricity is available, provided the customer has charged them and made them ready to start. For example, networked appliances from Miele, BSH and many other manufacturers are prepared for integration into EMS and can be controlled via the standardised EEBUS protocol, defined in EN50631, in addition to company-specific proprietary APIs. This enables comprehensive automated energy management for the customer. The integration of these devices into the EMS of the various manufacturers is essential so that the "Flexible Start" use case can also be applied to household appliances, for example. It is time for EMS manufacturers to recognise household appliances as an integral part of a holistic energy management system and integrate them into their systems in a timely manner. #energymanagement #EEBUS #Miele #BSH #Smarthome #SMA #Kiwigrid #GridX #PPC #Enphase #openEMS #Bosch #SchneiderElectric #SolarEdge #APPLIA #dynamictariffs #selfconsumptionoptimisation #SmartGrid #Smartmeter #tibber #CodeofConduct #EnergySmartAppliances #interoperability

Good day, and Happy New Week to all. Welcome to " *Be Solar Energy Weekly Enlightenment." "PRESERVATION OF OUR ENVIRONMENT IS NOT A LIBERAL OR CONSERVATIVE CHALLENGE, IT'S COMMON SENSE". ------Ronald Reagan. *INVERTER* Today, we shall look at INVERTER based on types and classifications. There is no 'best' inverter for all purposes. What might be great for an ambulance would not be suited for home use. *Inverters* can be described as electric devices that convert direct current (DC) to alternate current (AC) because household appliances use AC power to operate. *TYPES OF INVERTER* There are three (3) major types of Inverter. namely; 1. Square Wave Inverter 2. Modified Sine Wave Inverter 3. Pure Sine Wave Inverter. 1.Square Wave Inverter: This is the least efficient inverter type. It is used for appliances that use little power to start up. 2.Modified Sine Wave Inverter: This type of inverter takes up several minutes to kick in, and its power transition is not as smooth as that of a pure sine wave inverter. 3. Pure Sine Wave Inverter: This is more sophisticated in terms of technology to protect sensitive electronics because it adjusts voltage setting as may be required at any time. CLASSIFICATION OF INVERTERS. With advancement in technology, Inverters can be classified into three(3) major classes, namely; 1. The Grid Tie Inverter 2. Off Grid Inverter 3. Hybrid Inverter 1.The Grid Tie Inverter: This class of Inverter feeds the service line directly without storing the energy in batteries, that is, the energy taken from the panels (PV) is AC power and it is used directly without any storage, this required a large number of panels and stable sunshine which is not guaranteed through out the day. 2.Off Grid Inverter: This is a class of Inverter that uses energy stored in batteries to generate AC output power that runs the loads. The low voltage DC energy is "inverted" into higher voltage alternating AC current and can sustain appliances loads as long as there is energy in the battery system. 3.Hybrid Inverter: Hybrid Inverter is a combination of Off Grid and Grid Tie Inverter in a box. This Inverter transforms DC power into AC electricity using Solar PV power generation or other sources. This Inverter can store AC power in batteries. The Hybrid Inverter combines an inverter, battery charger, and charge controller into a portable device. This is where we are dropping the curtains for today. See you next week. We welcome your questions, suggestions, and opinions in the comment section, and we shall take time to respond timely with well articulated responses to help you in your decision-making. Feel free to reach out to us via our social media handles, *E-mail: bselftech@gmail.com, WhatsApp @+2348068426295, Facebook @besolarenergyng, X(formerly Twitter)@bselftech for your installation, maintenance, trouble shooting and Consultancy services. *Be Solar Energy......

Hong Kong pushes for energy efficiency labels on LED lamps, gas-powered stoves and water heaters Manufacturers given grace period lasting until December of next year before they must put labels on LED lamps, gas-powered stoves and tankless water heaters Government says rule change will save about 160 million kilowatt-hours of energy each year, reducing carbon emissions by some 75,000 tonnes Summary: Hong Kong authorities have introduced a new mandate requiring manufacturers to place energy efficiency labels on LED lamps, gas-powered stoves, and tankless water heaters. This move is a part of the city's broader efforts to combat climate change and transition towards a more sustainable future. Manufacturers have been given a grace period until December of the next year to comply. The labels will be based on a five-grade scale, with grade one being the most energy-efficient. This is a part of the fourth phase of the Mandatory Energy Efficiency Labelling Scheme initiated by the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department. The department estimates that this new addition will save approximately 160 million kilowatt-hours of energy annually, thereby reducing carbon emissions by around 75,000 tonnes. For the first time, the requirement will extend beyond electrical appliances to include non-electrical home appliances as well. Initially launched in 2009, the scheme has progressively expanded to cover 11 types of household appliances that collectively account for about 80% of household energy use. Long-term, the government aims to reduce household electricity consumption by 15% by 2035 and 30% by 2050 as part of its Climate Action Plan announced in 2021. Further, discussions are underway to introduce a minimum energy efficiency requirement for appliances covered under the scheme, with research for the proposal aimed to be completed before 2024. This initiative could serve as an interesting case study for other regions, including Singapore, to adopt similar measures. It strikes a balance between giving manufacturers ample time to adapt and setting ambitious yet attainable goals for energy savings and carbon reduction. #HongKong #EnergyEfficiency #Sustainability #ClimateAction #CarbonReduction https://lnkd.in/gZe-4Hjp
