On one hand, the worlds rising electricity demand can lead to increased renewable, clean, environmentally friendly generation. On the other hand, this increase of volatility poses many new challenges for today's power supply system to integrate this hard to predict generation. One direction many efforts are undertaken, is the introduction and increase of flexibility on the consumer side, leading to more smartness and communication need between power consumption and production. In the customer premises, home energy management systems are being developed to increase own consumption for users, but also offer an access point for other stakeholders, to receive market or grid signals, to accomplish timing and coordination. To be able to analyze, e.g. the energy flows and to gain a better understanding of scaling effects; there is a need for simulation frameworks like RAPSim. This paper describes the implemented extension of RAPSim with an additional consumer component, which allows integrating selected functions of home energy management into the simulation. The simulation allows the new consumer component to closely approximate the behavior of home energy management systems that have a photovoltaic system and a battery storage installed. Further possibilities to extend the components and features in the future are also pointed out.
