Recent trends in electric meter is based on Global System for Mobile Communication(GSM), Radio Frequency Identification(RFID), Remote wireless energy measurement from meter. But none have turned to solve the problems related to power demand. In this paper, we propose a solution to solve the problems associated with power demand by designing an electric meter that efficiently handles the power c...

Integrated resource planning (IRP) is a new way for utilities and state regulatory commissions to consistently assess a variety of demand and supply resources to cost-effectively meet customer energy-service needs. This paper reviews recent progress in IRP and identifies the need for additional work by utilities, regulatory commissions, and other organizations. Kevwords: demand-side management,...

Intensified industrialization in developing countries has recently resulted in huge electric power demand growth; however, electricity generation in these countries is still heavily reliant on inefficient and traditional non-renewable technologies. In this paper, we develop an integrated game-theoretic model for effective power systems planning thorough balancing between supply and demand for e...

This paper proposes an advanced distribution automation planning problem in which emergency-based demand response plans are incorporated during service restoration process. The fitness function of this planning problem consists of various costs associated with fault occurrence in electric distribution systems consisting of the total yearly cost of customers’ interruptions, the total annualized ...

If electricity infrastructures are to make the most of electric vehicle (EV) technology it is paramount to understand how mobility can enhance the management of assets and the delivery of energy. This research builds on a proof of concept model that focuses on simulating EV movements in urban environments which serve to forecast EV loads in the networks. Having performed this analysis for a tes...

Medium-term load forecasting is a useful tool for the maintenance planning of grids and as a market research of electric energy. In this work medium-term load forecasting methods are developed, the most forgotten time scaling process in the load forecasting bibliography. These methods will be applied to the peninsular Spanish monthly energy consumption. Methods traditionally employed with this ...

Hydro-electric power utilities convert the potential energy of water to electricity through the operation of generation turbines. Each turbine unit has an operating range and incurs a fixed start-up cost. The problem of determining which turbines should be operating at any point during the day whilst ensuring that the demand for electricity is satisfied is known as the unit commitment problem. ...

Due to the environmental impact of fossil fuels and high variability in their prices, there is rising interest in adopting electric vehicles (EVs) by both individuals and governments. Despite the advances in vehicle efficiency and battery capacity, a key hurdle is the inherent interdependence between EV adoption and charging station deployment–EV adoption (and hence, charging demand) increases ...
