Demand Response in Smart Buildings

The demand-side management scheme, one of the smart grid’s distribution side features, is well accepted due to its role in controlling energy consumption residential buildings by ensuring sustainability, leading concept buildings. consumers’ appropriate response without compromising comfort, referred as demand response, helps decrease their electricity bill. Further, flexibility and controllability power patterns end user has gained tremendous research interest grid domain. Smart appliances’ pattern alternation, battery back-up during peak load period, partial fulfilment through renewable generations are instrumental reducing Besides, short-term forecasting plays a vital system scheduling management. This chapter attempts summarize strategies it discusses importance adapting point probabilistic methods yield efficient building environment.
