Book Preparing Distribution Utilities for Utility Scale Storage and Electric Vehicles A Novel Analytical Framework

Download or read book Preparing Distribution Utilities for Utility Scale Storage and Electric Vehicles A Novel Analytical Framework written by and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging distributed energy resources (DERs)-such as solar photovoltaics (PV), battery energy storage systems (BESS), and electric vehicles (EVs)-are expected to increase substantially in India in the coming years following policy-driven targets of the Government of India to modernize its electricity system, reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs), and improve air quality. These emerging technologies can pose challenges to distribution utilities, forcing overhauls in planning and operational practices. They can also create challenges in power system infrastructure planning and cause more frequent system operational violations (e.g., network voltage bounds and loading thresholds) if not properly integrated. The impacts on the localized power distribution grid from these emerging technologies manifest in increased infrastructure investments and erratic shifts in demand patterns. These impacts are not yet well understood, and analytic solutions are not readily available. To address these challenges, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), in collaboration with BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd. (BRPL), developed an advanced power distribution system impact analysis framework of BRPL's distribution system. This framework helps analyze the readiness of the power distribution network to accommodate emerging technologies and the potential opportunities they might introduce. The framework has been predominantly set up to evaluate distributed PV, BESS, and EVs. In this collaboration between NREL and BRPL, we developed and evaluated the framework on two distribution feeders in the BRPL territory for various scenarios of BESS and EVs. BESS are evaluated for their effectiveness on the grid to mitigate present and future feeder overloading scenarios, and they are subsequently analyzed for their costs compared to the costs of traditional upgradation measures. Scenarios include assessing the effects of EV density on grid infrastructure upgrades and interlinking EV management with BESS integration.

Book Barriers and Opportunities to Broader Adoption of Integrated Demand Side Management at Electric Utilities

Download or read book Barriers and Opportunities to Broader Adoption of Integrated Demand Side Management at Electric Utilities written by Jennifer Potter (Energy researcher) and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This scoping study explores recent electric utility industry experience with IDSM [integrated demand side management] to provide an updated assessment of any benefits and barriers observed by a sample of industry practitioners. To better understand the current status of IDSM efforts in the electric utility industry and where it is likely headed in the near future, we gathered input from entities who are currently managing, or planning to implement IDSM. We reached out to ten such entities to ask if they would participate and provide information for our study. Eleven staff from eight utility and third-party program administrators responded and participated in the data gathering exercise used to inform this study. Thus it is important to note that the focus of this scoping study is on electric utility IDSM efforts from interviews conducted with a small sample of utilities and one program implementer, which narrowly focuses the viewpoints represented herein. Our primary data collection method was a survey instrument, with follow up interviews of some respondents to clarify responses.

Book Demand Side Management

Download or read book Demand Side Management written by Prachi Gupta and published by . This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A preliminary national-level analysis was conducted to determine whether Demand Side Management (DSM) programs introduced by electric utilities since 1992 have made any progress towards their stated goal of reducing peak load demand. Estimates implied that DSM has a very small effect on peak load reduction and there is substantial regional and end-user variability. A limited scholarly literature on DSM also provides evidence in support of a positive effect of demand response programs. Yet, none of these studies examine the question of how DSM affects peak load at the micro-level by influencing end-users' response to prices. After nearly three decades of experience with DSM, controversy remains over how effective these programs have been. This dissertation considers regional analyses that explore both demand-side solutions and supply-side interventions. On the demand side, models are estimated to provide in-depth evidence of end-user consumption patterns for each North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) region, helping to identify sectors in regions that have made a substantial contribution to peak load reduction.

Book Demand Side Management for Residential Consumers Considering Distribution System Requirements

Download or read book Demand Side Management for Residential Consumers Considering Distribution System Requirements written by Thanappuhettige Nipuna Mihiranga Gomes and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the focus areas of the smart-grid initiative is residential level demand response. Literature presents numerous demand response and load control programs. Some of the recent surveys analyze price-responsive demand response optimization, mathematical modeling of demand response, responsive demand forecasting, and communication requirements. Minimal work is done to evaluate and incorporate the impact of such programs on the grid. The real-time demand response program should benefit both utility and the consumers in an optimized manner. Most demand response schemes in the literature fail to identify the benefit to the distribution system. Only a few of publications in the literature indicate that the proposed demand response programs could benefit the utility. Of that, only a handful of work shows and verifies the actual benefits. One of the works, which evaluated the grid impact, focuses on individual appliances and their contribution to voltage drop mitigation. Regardless of the benefit to the consumers, the utility will not be interested in those programs if they do not provide a considerable benefit to them. This has limited the distribution system operators from identifying the worth of demand response and launch programs which are beneficial to both consumers and distribution operators. This thesis addresses the value of demand response programs to the grid. The first part of this thesis identifies the benefit of the demand response programs available in the literature. Next, the thesis presents an approach to incorporate utility focused demand response benefits into distribution system operation. This is done by maintaining distribution level requirements such as minimal deviations in nodal voltage and power factor. A modified AC distribution power-flow method is proposed along with the demand response as a constraint. The demand response constraint is developed using the first part. The outcome of this work can be used by utilities to evaluate the benefits of demand response programs
