In this paper, application of demand response to accommodate maximum PV power in a low-voltage distribution network is discussed. A centralized control based on model predictive control method is proposed for the computation of optimal demand response on an hourly basis. The proposed method uses PV generation and load forecasts, network topology and market price signals as inputs, limits of network...
In this paper, the control objectives of future active distribution networks with high penetration of renewables and flexible loads are analyzed and reviewed. From a state of the art review, the important control objectives seen from the perspective of a distribution system operator are identified to be hosting capacity improvement, high reliable operation and cost effective network management. Based...
In this study, a new pricing approach is proposed to increase demand responsiveness. The proposed approach considers two well-known demand side management techniques, namely peak shaving and valley filling. This is done by incentivizing consumers by magnifying price difference between peak and off-peak hours. The usefulness of the suggested method is then investigated by its combination with an electric...
Overvoltages in low voltage distribution grids with high solar photovoltaic (PV) integration are usually alleviated by implementing various active/reactive power control techniques. As those methods create revenue loss or inverter cost increase to PV owners, a coordinated control of load demand and the PVs, considering electric vehicles (EVs) as potential demand response resource, is proposed in this...
The balancing of power systems with high penetration of renewable energy is a serious challenge to be faced in the near future. One of the possible solutions, recently capturing a lot of attention, is demand response. Demand response can only be achieved by power consumers holding loads which allow them to modify their normal power consumption pattern, namely flexible consumers. However flexibility,...
The changes in the Danish energy sector, consequence of political agreements, are expected to have direct impact in the actual power distribution systems. Large number of electric boiler, heat pumps and electric vehicles are planned and will cope large percentage of the future power consumption at household level. Despite of the well-known flexible service that this kind of loads can provide, their...
