Potential of Demand Response for Power Reallocation, a Literature Review

The power demand on the electric grid varies according to time of day following users’ needs and so does cost electricity supply because mix is formed using different generators varying capacities. Demand response (DR) modification consumption load curve a signal from provider; it mostly used for peak clipping. By reducing short-term mismatch between generation consumption, helps integrate intermittent renewables new low-carbon technologies such as energy storage, vehicles, power-to-gas. present work literature survey based keywords: response, technology, potential, power, dispatch, which aims provide summary state art regarding potential implementation. Literature either related assessment or implementation; less focus given non-dispatchable DR than dispatchable DR. There great untapped reallocation in all sectors. Incentivizing users participate programs crucial, well education campaigns smart meters penetration. barriers are investment costs absence an adequate pricing scheme.
