A method for distributing energy in the home energy management system including a central unit, an energy source, and an energy consumer. The central unit, the energy source, and the energy consumer are connected for exchanging information items. The central unit generates an information item which contains a first price information item and a first amount-of-energy information item for a predetermined period of time. The central unit transmits the information item to the energy consumer. The energy consumer ascertains a requirement information item taking into account the information item. The requirement information item contains a requested amount of energy for the predetermined period of time. The energy consumer transmits the requirement information item and a second price information item to the central unit. The central unit checks whether the overall requested amount of energy ascertained from the transmitted requirement information items at any one time exceeds the amount of energy available at this time. The central unit transmits the acknowledgment information item to the energy consumer.
