More flexible demand side would benefit the electricity markets, networks and sustainable power generation in many ways. The success of demand response programs, however, relies on consumer acceptance. This paper reviews previous studies about acceptability of different kinds of residential demand response programs. Furthermore, it discusses whether consumers who are more aware of the principle...

Reaching an electricity system which is both economically efficient and environmentally friendly is motivating countries to design and execute different types of TOU demand response programs. But there are certain deficiencies which prevent these programs to effectively modify the load shape. Smart grid as a means could help the electricity system to reach the highest demand side management ...

Frequency stability of the power system is impacted by increasing penetration wind because intermittent. Meanwhile, sometimes demand side loads increase quickly to require more than total produced. So balancing active in maintain frequency main challenge high smart grid. This paper proposes coordination rotor speed control (RSC), pitch angle (PAC) and inertial (IC) turbines, together with respo...

Information systems are going to play a key role in making today’s electricity grids smarter and, in this way, will enable the energy turnaround from fossil to renewable energy sources. One of the approaches to cope with the intermittent feed-in of renewable energy is demand response, i.e. the demand side responds to requirements and price signals from the electricity grid. As yet, the supply s...

The practice of target pricing has been a key factor in the success of Japanese manufacturers. In the more commonly-known demand-side approach, the target price for the supplier equals the manufacturer’s market price less a percent margin for the manufacturer but no cost-improvement expenses are shared. In the supply-side approach, cost-improvement expenses are shared and the target price equal...
