Designing market mechanisms for electricity distribution systems has been a hot topic due to the increased presence of smart loads and distributed energy resources (DERs) in distribution systems. The distribution locational marginal pricing (DLMP) methodology is one of the real-time pricing methods to enable such market mechanisms and provide economic incentives to active market participants. Determining...
Distributed energy resources (DERs) and smart loads have the potential to provide flexibility to the distribution system operation. A coordinated optimization approach is proposed in this paper to actively manage DERs and smart loads in distribution systems to achieve the optimal operation status. A three-phase unbalanced Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem is developed to determine the output from DERs...
The rapid development of the theory and application makes it imperative to find the best strategies to improve the energy efficiency of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we address the following question: given a multi-to-one wireless sensor network in physical space, what is the optimal routing strategy to enable the energy-efficiency of the network with regard to a given mission and a certain...
Zero-Energy Buildings (ZEBs) have recently become a trend for future constructions. It remains challenging to design control systems for such buildings that require energy-efficiency and employ renewable energy. In this paper, we describe a simulation platform that can be used to energy management and comfort improvement in buildings. This platform provides a method to users to manage buildings through...
The primary control objectives for intelligent and green buildings focus on maintaining occupants' comfort while minimizing energy consumption in building operations. This paper describes a multi-agent control system which is designed for building energy management. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is utilized to optimize the control system to improve users' comfort and save energy. In order to maximize...
