Implementing Active Customer Interface for Smart Grid Functionalities to an Lvdc Distribution System

چکیده
Information and communication technologies (ICT) play significant role in modern smart grids (SG). SG functionalities require implementation of devices with computing performance into the grids and communication network between these devices. This has also been the case in a low-voltage direct current (LVDC) electricity distribution system, to which remote and automated grid monitoring and control system besides advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) have been integrated. To get the full potential of the LVDC SG platform, customer load control is essential when demand-side-management-related functionalities are considered. This paper addresses the design of active customer interface (ACI) for the implementation of the load control functionality to the LVDC smart grid concept.
