Development of general purpose energy system simulator

Smart energy system is very large energy system that consists of the windmill, solar panel, heat pump, airconditioning system, solar thermal panel and so on. To develop efficient smart energy system, it is very important to investigate how to manage the total energy utilization of the total smart energy system. But it is difficult to examine the energy management only with experiment. The simulation is promising technology for the development of the energy management of the smart energy systems. But as this system is too large, we can't analyze this system, unless we analyze this system rationally. Therefore we have established the modular analysis theory that can analyze the large scale energy system. This paper introduces this theory and using this theory, we have developed the energy system analyzing simulator that is called "Energy Flow +M". This simulator has been already opened for the worldwide through Internet. This simulator is expected to be used for the energy saving of the total energy systems.
