Typical load profile (TLP) describes the hourly values of electricity consumption on a daily basis, and is associated to a certain consumer category, for certain specific operating conditions. TLPs can be defined for residential, small industrial, commercial or services consumers, for warm season and cold season, for week days and weekends. In this paper, the daily load curves of a residential feeder...
Load forecasting plays a vital role in demand management. The primary goal of demand management strategy is to shave the peak load in order to reduce the dependency on the peaking plants and to avoid the overloading of the transmission and distribution equipment. Battery storage can also be utilized for peak shaving by storing excess energy during the off-peak and consuming battery energy during peak...
Recent advances in wireless sensor networking (WSN) techniques have encouraged interest in the development of vehicle health monitoring (VHM) systems. These have the potential for use in the monitoring of railway signaling systems and rail tracks. Energy efficiency is one of the most important design factors for the WSNs as the typical sensor nodes are equipped with limited power batteries. In earlier...
Occurrences of underground cable faults in the power transmission and distribution system is unavoidable due to several reasons. Long outage of power supply can cause the power distributors and retailers heavy loss of revenue and discomfort of the customers. Therefore, a quick detection and rectification of the faults is a major concern of the power distributors and retailers. This paper reviews a...
Demand management is mechanism to shift the demand of electricity from peak to off-peak to use the available energy as efficiently as possible without requiring additional generation capacity or transmission and distribution infrastructure. Demand response is a special type of demand management which motivates the customers to respond to electricity prices over time. The recently proposed demand response...
