The effective and efficient utilization of electrical energy is the outcome of smart energy management system. Moreover, appropriate augmentation of renewable energy alternatives through distributed generation can considerably unburden the power utility system. This paper identifies the scope for the rule based approach to develop an energy efficient utilization model for bulk power consumers. The augmentation of distributed power generation using solar PV has also been proposed which considerably reduces the maximum demand (M.D) of power during peak hours. The distributed generation from solar PV for this case-study uses minimum storage battery as the generation schedule and the load schedule often coincides. The portfolio of energy distribution is formulated based on priority of energy demand. The proposed model can be suitably modified for similar type of load centers including industrial loads.
