Book Smart Grid Economics and Management

Download or read book Smart Grid Economics and Management written by Clemens van Dinther and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-07 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on market/regulatory issues concerning smart grid applications, business cases and use cases. It covers the most relevant aspects of the smart grid—design considerations, economics, legal aspects and system management—and includes exercises at the end of each chapter. Since renewable energy generation is weather-dependent, it is more volatile, which affects market prices and the need for flexibility options including demand side management. In order to balance supply and demand in a sustainable manner also with high shares of renewables, energy systems need to be enhanced by smart grid technologies. This co-evolutionary transformation of the energy system, economic, societal, political and regulatory domains is challenging and calls for an integrated and interdisciplinary approach. This book provides an essential basis to prepare lecturers and students for engaging in the new energy world.

Book Integration of Demand Response into the Electricity Chain

Download or read book Integration of Demand Response into the Electricity Chain written by Arturo Losi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-11-04 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Demand Response (DR) generally concerns methodologies, technologies and commercial arrangements that could allow active participation of consumers in the power system operation. The primary aim of DR is thus to overcome the “traditional” inflexibility of electrical demand and, amongst others, create a new powerful tool to maximize deployment of renewable energy sources as well as provide active network management solutions to help reducing the impact of limited grid capabilities. DR allows consumers to actively participate in power system operation, thus bringing new opportunities in emerging energy markets as well as tangible system benefits. In this sense, DR is considered one of the key enablers of the Smart Grid concept. However, DR also poses a number of challenges, particularly when “active demand” is connected to the Low Voltage network, thus affecting all the actors involved in the electricity chain. This book presents for the first time a comprehensive view on technical methodologies and architectures, commercial arrangements, and socio-economic and regulatory factors that could facilitate the uptake of DR. The work is developed in a systematic way so as to create a comprehensive picture of challenges, benefits and opportunities involved with DR. The reader will thus be provided with a clear understanding of the complexity deriving from a demand becoming active, as well as with a quantitative assessment of the techno-economic value of the proposed solutions in a Smart Grid context. Many research contributions have appeared in recent years in the field of DR, both in journals and conference proceedings. However, most publications focus on individual aspects of the problem. A systematic treatment of the issues to be tackled to introduce DR in existing electricity grids, involving the extended value chain in terms of technical and commercial aspects, is still missing. Also, several books have recently been published about Smart Grid, in which there is some mention to DR. However, again while DR is seen as a key pillar for the Smart Grid, there is no dedicated, comprehensive and systematic contribution in this respect.

Book Demand Side Approaches for Congestion Management in Electricity Market

Download or read book Demand Side Approaches for Congestion Management in Electricity Market written by Jingling Sun and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1990s, deregulation of the power industry and the introduction of electricity market has unbundled the vertically integrated optimization of power system operation into distinct different optimization problems for generation and transmission operation separately. On top of that distribution network operation is also separately optimised. The increasing integration of renewable generation challenges the power system operation and the system operator plays an increasingly crucial role to organise the delivery of electricity through power trading associated with different forms of contracts. Among all the duties undertaken by the system operator, congestion management has become increasingly difficult but it is of absolute importance. However, most congestion management methods only concern with solutions from the supply side but assuming that the demand side remains unchanged. As the supply side is becoming less controllable and less predictable under the new generation environment, the quest for solution from the demand side arises. This thesis focuses on the investigation of network congestion arising in liberalised electricity markets and the management of congestion from the demand side with respect to identified existing and future challenges. To this purpose, new methodologies based on Demand Side Management are developed and modelled on Matlab platform. A simple but practical index, namely Economical Demand Management (EDM) index, is proposed for finding solution to manage the congestion from demand side based on Optimal Power Flow calculation and Locational Marginal Pricing. The efficacy of the proposed index has been validated on IEEE 14 and IEEE 30 systems. The values of the indices can be used to allocate the optimal load adjustment and determine the amount of demand side participation. Furthermore, a new load control methodology in the form of smart appliances that can be employed in the smart grid frame is also developed in this thesis. The proposed methodology is illustrated as a generalised technique based on load shifting, which has been mathematically formulated as a linear-constrained quadratic minimization problem. The proposed algorithm allows different control strategies to be applied according to the different attributes of the appliances, which is sufficiently general to be implemented in the real world. The implementation of the proposed load control methodology using case studies on a set of nationwide domestic smart appliance load shifting have been carried out with UK Power System data. Furthermore, combination of the proposed load control methodology and EDM index for congestion relief has been simulated on a network model. Also, their potential impacts from both economical and environmental aspects have been evaluated.

Book Energy Storage Technologies in Grid Modernization

Download or read book Energy Storage Technologies in Grid Modernization written by Sandeep Dhundhara and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ENERGY STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES IN GRID MODERNIZATION Written and edited by a team of experts, this exciting new volume discusses the various types of energy storage technologies, the applications of energy storage systems, their role in the real-time operation of power markets, and the operational issues of modern power systems, including renewable-based generating sources. The worldwide energy sector, specifically power generation, has undergone a huge transformation in recent years, and the focus is to make it sustainable, environmentally friendly, reliable, and highly efficient. As a result, a significant share of highly intermittent but clean renewable sources is being integrated into the power system using advanced technological components. The higher penetration level of renewable energy sources (RESs) has increased the active power generation share in the grid but reduced the total rotating system inertia. This high reduction in inertia brings new challenges and technical issues to the operators of modern power systems and impacts the stability and security of the grid. The stochasticity of these renewable sources also poses a big challenge to the efficient operation of the power system. Electrical energy storage systems help to manage such issues and challenges that occur due to the intermittent nature of RES and can play a big role in the smooth and reliable operation of the power system. The applications and opportunities to use storage on the grid are growing due to the improvements in energy storage technologies, and flexible regulatory frameworks. Technological developments have made it possible to use batteries and other Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) for managing the operation of the power system. This book aims to illustrate the potential of energy storage systems in different applications of the modern power system considering recent advances and research trends in storage technologies. These areas are going to play a very significant role in future smart grid operations. This book discusses the various types of energy storage technologies and promotes the applications of ESSs in the performance improvement of modern power systems. Whether for the veteran engineer, new hire, or student, it is a must-have for any library.

Book Demand side Flexibility in Smart Grid

Download or read book Demand side Flexibility in Smart Grid written by Roya Ahmadiahangar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights recent advances in the identification, prediction and exploitation of demand side (DS) flexibility and investigates new methods of predicting DS flexibility at various different power system (PS) levels. Renewable energy sources (RES) are characterized by volatile, partially unpredictable and mostly non-dispatchable generation. The main challenge in terms of integrating RES into power systems is their intermittency, which negatively affects the power balance. Addressing this challenge requires an increase in the available PS flexibility, which in turn requires accurate estimation of the available flexibility on the DS and aggregation solutions at the system level. This book discusses these issues and presents solutions for effectively tackling them.
