In this paper an optimal controller for battery management in smart home environments is presented in order to save costs and minimize energy waste. The considered scenario includes a load profile that must always be satisfied, a battery-system that is able to storage electrical energy, a photovoltaic (PV) panel, and the main grid that is used when it is necessary to satisfy the load requirements or charge the battery. The optimal controller design is based on a class of adaptive critic designs (ACDs) called action dependent heuristic dynamic programming (ADHDP). Results obtained with this scheme outperform the ones obtained by using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) method.
