The effects of increasing volatility of energy production could be mitigated by real-time shaping of the electricity consumption profile. This paper compares various strategies of an electricity retailer for controlling the consumption profile of its customers, under uncertainties in wholesale prices as well as heating demand. The economic and technical performance potential of selected forms of direct...
It has been suggested that demand response (DR) would be one of the most promising and important features of an energy system. However, the development of residential customers' DR has not been very successful so far. Among the main reasons have probably been inadequate benefits that DR provides to different market participants. Various DR practices have been proposed, but only a few of them have...
Even though demand response (DR) participation has substantial benefits to the market as a whole, current DR programs suffer from a collection of market, regulatory, infrastructure and technology problems, such as lack of scalability, lack of privacy, imprecision, and nonacceptance by customers. This paper describes how a fundamentally different DR approach, based on service priority tiers for appliances...
Demand response (DR) is an important demand-side resource that allows for lower electricity consumption when the system is under stress. This paper presents a DR framework that can be implemented within a home area network, as well as a conceptual hardware architecture for a Home Management System (HMS) and appliance interface units that enable in-home DR implementation. The proposed DR strategy allows...
Existing methods for demand response either assume direct control of appliances by supplier, or assume that consumers adapt their load by reacting to pricing signals. The former are intrusive and might not scale well; the latter expose consumers to price volatility and require detailed awareness of time varying prices. We propose an alternative approach, based on “service curves”, which uses the following...
Recently, a massive focus has been made on DR programs, mainly on decreasing electricity price, resolving transmission lines congestion, reliability enhancement and market liquidity improving. Basically, demand response programs are separated into two main groups named, incentive-based programs and time-based programs. The focus of this paper is on Time of Use (TOU) program and Direct Load Control...
