Promoting Increased Energy Efficiency in Smart Grids by Empowerment of Customers
نویسنده
چکیده
The European Parliament has continuously supported these goals. It is a common understanding that this change will require a transition from monopolised hierarchically controlled Power networks to customer oriented Smart Grids operating in deregulated energy markets. However, this poses several regulatory, organizational and technical challenges to be identified and addressed. To that end several international Smart Grid projects have been launched worldwide in EU, the US, and in China.

Real -Time Pricing Design Considering Uncertainty of Renewable Energy Resources and Thermal Loads in Smart Grids
In this paper, a novel real time pricing design is presented for Demand Response (DR) programs. A Load Serving Entity (LSE) is responsible to provide energy for flexible loads, inflexible loads and thermal loads. The LSE consider operation conditions of system and uncertainty of renewable energy resources and it designs a Real Time Price (RTP) demand response. The inflexible and thermal loads c...

In this study, a new multi-objective method is proposed to optimal manage the local energy resources and customers’ load in a microgrid in the presence of demand response programs. The wind turbine and photovoltaic panel are the renewable energy sources of the microgrid. The time of use and critical peak pricing programs are also used to improve the consumption pattern of customers. Moreover, c...
متن کاملUtilization of Electric Vehicles for Improvement of Daily Load Factor in the Price-Responsive Environment of Smart Grids
Using electric vehicles, in addition to decreasing the environmental concerns, can play an important role in decreasing the peak and filling the off-peaks of the daily load characteristics. In other words, in smart grids' infrastructure, the load characteristics can be improved by scheduling the charge and discharge process of electric vehicles. In smart grids, the customers are instantaneously...
