Abstract
In this paper, an integrated fog and cloud based environment for effective energy management is proposed in which fogs are connected to cloud in order to reduce the burden of cloud. It handles the data of clusters of buildings at consumers’ end. Six fogs are used on six different regions in the world which are based on six continents. Furthermore, each fog is connected to cluster of buildings and one fog is connected to one cluster. Each cluster comprises of multiple smart buildings and these buildings has at least 100 smart homes. Microgrids (MGs) are available near the buildings and accessible by the fogs. Energy is managed for these homes and fog helps the consumers to fulfill their load demands through nearby MGs and cloud servers’ communication. The requests are sent by the homes or buildings to the fog according to the energy demands and fog forwards these requests to nearby MGs to fulfill them. The MGs establish the connection and provide electricity to relevant homes in the building and requests are managed by the round robin algorithm. Proposed model is evaluated in terms of demand request time, demand response time and demand processing time and it performs efficiently during the peak demand periods.
