Electrical distribution networks worldwide are facing frequent capacity challenges due to the widespread roll out of various distributed energy resources (DERs). A number of demand response (DR) mechanisms have been developed in order to circumvent the problems and enhance the flexibility of the distribution network. While the existing centralized control system remains its crucial role for reliable...
The rapid proliferation of distributed energy resources (DERs) leads to capacity challenges, i.e. network congestions, in the low-voltage (LV) distribution networks. A number of strategies are being widely studied to tackle the challenges with direct switching actions such as load shedding or power curtailment. On the other hand, various market-based demand response (DR) programs have been developed...
Energy storage is a topic of much discussion in power systems as a way to integrate more renewable energy sources into the network. One renewable energy source that has undergone significant growth is photovoltaics (PV), and much of this has happened in low voltage networks. It has become popular as a result of different support schemes and a desire among customers to reduce their costs and reduce...
Within the smart grid - smart buildings context, electric vehicles (EVs) require an increasing consideration, not only for the challenges they create, but also for their potential for grid support. In office buildings, a high number of EVs is most likely to park for a longe period. Studies have shown that if the EVs are allowed to charge without control it will not only have negative impact on building...
This paper proposes an effective method for improving the flexibility of buildings as electrical loads to support the distribution grid operation. The buildings energy consumption is the result of the operation of the energy systems that are there to support its operation. As the buildings main purpose is to provide a safe environment, a great part of the buildings energy demand come from the operation...
