IT organizations often struggle with managing the balance between the supply and demand side of IT products and services. IT managers have often been concerned about delivering products and services, faster, better, and cheaper (i.e., supply side) and left behind the crucial aspects of the demand side of the equation. Therefore, the capability to ensure that IT investments are made as effective...

The main goal of this paper is to structurally analyze impact of DSM programs on reliability indices. A new approach is presented to structurally decompose reliability index Expected Energy Not Supplied (EENS) by using Monte Carlo simulation. EENS is decomposed into two terms. The first term indicates EENS which is caused by generation contingencies. The second term indicates EENS which is caus...

Real-time pricing schemes make the customers to feel the energy price volatility and improve their load profiles. However, these schemes have no significant effect on demand-side uncertainty reduction. In this paper, considering smart grid infrastructures and smart building Energy Management System (EMS), a new real-time pricing scheme is presented to reduce the uncertainty of demand-side. In t...

Energy demand-side management becomes a well-established approach in the Smart Power Grid. Aggregation of consumption information is a critical operation performed by most demand-side energy management mechanisms as it provides information about the required adjustment of power demand. However, a centralized demand-side energy management approach controlled exclusively by utility companies is n...

Demand‐side management (DSM) merits increased attention by power system modelers. We argue that numerical models should incorporate DSM constraints in a complete and consistent way. Otherwise, flawed DSM patterns and distorted conclusions on the system benefits of demand‐side management are inevitable. Building on a model formulation put forward by Göransson et al. (2014...

A smart energy management controller can improve efficiency, save costs, and reduce carbon emissions consumption while accurately catering to consumer habits. Having integrated various renewable systems (RESs) a battery storage system (BSS), we proposed an optimization-based demand-side (DSM) scheduler (SEMC) for home. The suggested SEMC creates DSM-based operational plan regarding user-centere...

-The objective of the present project is to develop solutions to improve energy efficiency in electric grids. The basic approach adopted in this research is based on a new concept in the Micro Grid, namely Demand/Response Optimization, which enables the implementation of the autonomous demand side energy management for a big variety of consumers, ranging from homes to buildings, factories, comm...
