| Resumen: | The rise of IoT devices and smart technologies has transformed homes into complex interconnected environments, creating new challenges for energy management. Understanding how people actually use energy is now a key requirement for designing smarter, more efficient systems, and simulation provides a controlled way to test decisions before deploying them in real homes. However, traditional simulation tools rely on static occupancy profiles and deterministic models that overlook the variability of real household behavior. This paper introduces Home Agent-Based Individualized Time and Activity Simulator (HABITAS), a flexible agent-based framework capable of emulating diverse household scenarios and testing energy optimization strategies. HABITAS represents occupants as autonomous agents with unique routines, preferences, and needs, enabling realistic modeling of energy and resource use. The simulator integrates solar generation, battery storage, appliance use, water consumption, and environmental monitoring through a modular architecture that supports both real-time and fast-forward simulation. Through detailed simulations, HABITAS generated plausible residential load shapes and variability patterns consistent with behavioral expectations, illustrating its practical applicability. Its detailed, individualized outputs support research in demand response, energy policy, smart home design, and decentralized energy systems. |
