Abstract
The modern trend in electrical energy distribution is the soft island system. Manual and conventional procedures
struggle when dealing with multiple sources, loads, and constraints because they need intelligence to perform at
their best. This work, therefore, proposes an intelligent fuzzy logic-based controller for building energy
management system that controls solar panel and inverter, grid, battery and inverter, and generator in a way that
prioritizes the use of the cleanest and most affordable source. To simulate the developed system in MATLAB
Simulink, real data from offices in the engineering complex of Niger State Polytechnic Zungeru, Nigeria, was
used. Results showed that when compared to the conventional distribution board, the developed algorithm
conserved power by 33.71%.
