Smart Grid Energy Arbitrage Orchestrator
Design a system for a 'Smart Home' that manages energy flow between solar panels, a home battery, the local power grid, and household appliances. The goal is to minimize cost by selling power back to the grid when prices are high and charging the battery when prices are low. The system must react in real-time to price fluctuations and appliance demands. It must support multiple manufacturers of batteries and solar inverters.
