: In this paper, the operation of a future distribution network is discussed under the assumption of a multi-carrier microgrid (MCMG) concept. The new model considers a modern energy management technique in electricity and natural gas networks based on a novel demand side management (DSM) which the energy tariff for responsive loads are correlated to the energy input of the network and changes ...

Resource demands are a core aspect of performance models. They describe how an operation utilizes a resource and therefore influence the systems performance metrics: response time, resource utilization and throughput. Such demands can be determined by two extraction classes: direct measurement or demand estimation. Selecting the best suited technique depends on available tools, acceptable measu...

Microgrid (MG) is one of the important blocks in the future smart distribution systems. The scheduling pattern of MGs affects distribution system operation. Also, the optimal scheduling of MGs will be result in reliable and economical operation of distribution system. In this paper, an operational planning model of a MG which considers multiple demand response (DR) programs is proposed. In the ...
