Power shortages plague much geography throughout the world disrupting the life and prosperity of many societies. Rotational load shedding is a measure widely used under severe power shortage situations resulting in cyclic blackouts. The paper presents an agent-based distributed cyclic blackout mitigation and prevention scheme based on the optimum use of available standby generation and managing the...
In many countries detailed mappings of various related issues such as appliance time of use, usage patterns, and human occupancy are not available making the process of generating residential demand profiles for demand management purposes very challenging. In this paper an abstracted residential demand generator (ARDG) based on behaviour finite state diagrams is introduced. The generator takes into...
The ever-increasing demand for electric power presents a massive, worldwide, challenge. One consequence of the shortage of available power is a series of small and large cyclic blackouts affecting millions of people; the paper details a solution to mitigate the effects of such blackouts. The proposed solution is based on utilising power superfluity from neighbourhood standby generation resources and...
Many countries around the world are challenged to meet the escalating demand for power often resulting in frequent blackouts. Domestic standby generation and associated running costs are prohibitive and novel strategies to provision measures that manage blackouts are becoming much sought after. Almost all installed standby generation is not fully utilized and certain amounts of surplus power can be...
