The evolvement of sustainable smart grid (SG) technology, advanced metering infrastructure, bidirectional communication and information infrastructure has revolutionised advancement in home energy management system (HEMS). The intelligent monitoring and control of renewable generation and distribution have their positive impact on the ease and convenience of the consumers to reduce overall energy consumption and to improve the comfort level. This study presents an overview of existing HEMS and their feasibilities. It also explores different controlling techniques and their functionalities that have been adopted to bring out future perspectives on the advancement of HEMS. The existing hardware implementations for HEMS along with communication protocols are discussed. Different demand response (DR) programmes and their compatibility are well‐classified for HEMS, and also the range of application for HEMS has been discussed. Optimisation techniques that are used for different objectives of DR and HEMS are well‐furnished in this study. The motivation, setbacks and their solutions for co‐simulation approach along with the different power system simulators and communication network simulators and their compatibility for SG environment and HEMS are explored in the study.
