This article proposes a DR program characterized by novel compensation scheme. The proposed scheme recognizes the different characteristics of curtailment, such as total length curtailments within window time, or number separate curtailment events (i.e., startup), and compensates end-user accordingly. features piece-wise reward function comprised two intervals. participants receive onetime upfr...

The environmental concerns around energy, namely electricity, have driven attention to innovative approaches fostering consumers participation in the whole energy system management. Accordingly, concept of demand response provides incentives and signals no change normal consumption patterns increase use renewables, for example. problem is that such has a large amount uncertainty. This paper pro...

In recent years, incremental rate of electrical demands made many challenges for policy makers of power systems. Besides, due to economic crisis and environmental concerns about the air pollution, the new investments in thermal power generation units have experienced a noticeable reduction. For this reason, the power system operators should propose novel approaches to make a balance between inc...

Nowadays, demand response has become one of the essential components of recent deregulated power systems as it can offer many distinguished features, such as availability, quickness, and applicability. DRPs (Demand response programs), announced by the federal energy regulatory commission, are among the most accepted and practical features of demand side management. DRPs not only can contribute ...

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...

This paper investigates an alternative solution to prevent Load Shedding (LS) triggering during underfrequency and proposes a new technique to restore the frequency during emergency events. Demand response (DR) is considered as one of the most promising Smart Grid concepts that can be used to support the peak demand, whereas, LS is an existing last resort method during emergency grid situations...

In this paper, a customer incentive scheme is proposed for retailers to build an effective demand response program over the peak demand period to minimize the financial risk. Firstly, an objective function is formulated based on the market operation and an optimal incentive price is derived from this objective function. Secondly, the incentive price is employed as a part of an incentive scheme ...
