with the aim of reducing cost of electricity consumption and peak load reduction, tools requirement for better managing electricity consumption have become inevitable in recent years. smart home has some equipment which are controllable and this ability is used for increasing comfort and minimizing electricity cost for residence. as a key component of smart home , electric vehicle(ev) ,increase...

under the smart grid environment, demand response resources (drrs) are introduced as a virtual power plant to enhance power system adequacy. drrs often fail to reduce their load due to some external factors. in this paper, a reliability model of a drr is constructed as multi-state conventional generation units, where the probability, frequency of occurrence, and departure rate of each state can...

The stringent requirement of the demand-supply equilibrium for delivering electricity has traditionally been dealt with a supply-side perspective, assuming that the demand is not alterable. With the promises of the Smart Grid, demandside management techniques are increasingly becoming more feasible. A demand-side management technique, called Demand Response, aims at inducing changes in electric...

In recent years, resilience enhancement of electricity distribution systems has attracted much attention due to the significant rise in high-impact rare (HR) natural event outages. The performance post-event restoration after an HR is effective measure for a resilient network. this paper, multi-objective model presented improving first objective function, load shedding process minimized. As sec...
