Smart Grid-The intelligent electricity grid empowers bi-directional communication between utility and its consumers. Unlike traditional grid, smart grid encourages consumers to participate in demand response program. Demand Response program allows the consumers to reduce or shift the energy usage from peak to offpeak period. This potentially offers energy efficiency. In this paper, we have prop...

The interest in the implementation of demand response programs for domestic customers within the framework of smart grids is increasing, both from the point of view of scientific research and from the point of view of real applications through pilot projects. A fundamental element of any demand response program is the introduction at customer level of a device, generally named energy box, able ...

demand response (dr) has many beneficiaries in the electricity market. there are independent players who are interested in dr, which include: transmission system owners, distributors, retailers, and aggregators. in this paper dr is introduced as a tradable commodity that can be exchanged between dr buyers and sellers in a pool-based market which is called demand response exchange (drx). drx ope...

With increasing the energy demand, optimal and safe operation of power systems is main challenge for engineers. Thus, a technique implementation demand response programs (DRPs), installation distributed generation (DG) with transmission distribution factors, DC dynamic load flow presented in this paper. In fact, finding time execution DRPs bus installing wind units its probabilistic effects con...

Virtual power plant (VPP) is an effective approach to aggregate distributed generation resources under a central control. This paper introduces a mixed-integer linear programming model for optimal scheduling of the internal resources of a large scale VPP in order to maximize its profit. The proposed model studies the effect of a demand response (DR) program on the scheduling of the VPP. The pro...

In response to California’s electricity supply and demand crisis of 2001, the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) implemented a portfolio of programs funded by the California Legislature, through Senate Bill 5X. As part of its SB5X portfolio, SMUD implemented a Small Commercial Prescriptive Lighting program. SMUD’s initial goal for the program was to achieve installation 450 installati...

Demand response is getting increased attention these days due to the increase in electricity demand and introduction of renewable resources in the existing power grid. Traditionally demand response programs involve large industrial consumers but with technological advancement, demand response is being implemented for small residential and commercial consumers also. In this paper, demand respons...
