Download or read book Demand Side Management and Electricity End Use Efficiency written by A. de Almeida and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Demand-Side Management and Electricity End-Use Efficiency" was held in order to present and to discuss some of the most recent developments in demand-side electric power management and planning methodologies as well as research progress in relevant end-use technologies. Electricity is assuming an increasingly important role in buildings and industry, due to its flexibility, efficiency of conversion and cleanliness at the point of use. However the production and transmission of electricity requires huge investments and may have undesirable environmental impacts. The recent nuclear accident in Chernobyl and the damage caused by acid precipitation are creating increasing concerns about the impacts of power plants. Some environmental problems are local or regional, others such as global warming can affect the whole world. Although environmental impacts may be minimized with additional investments, electricity generation will become even more capital intensive. Energy, and electricity in particular, is not directly consumed by people. To achieve improved standards of living, what is important is. the level of production of goods and services. If it is possible to produce the same quantity of goods and services with less electricity and in a cost-effective way, substantial benefits can be gained. By reducing costs, electricity efficiency can raise the standards of living and increase the competitiveness of an economy. Electricity efficiency also leads to reduced requirements in power plant operation, thus leading to reduced consumption of primary energy supplies and a higher quality environment.

Download or read book Addressing Energy Demand Through Demand Response International Experiences and Practices written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demand response (DR) is a load management tool which provides a cost-effective alternative to traditional supply-side solutions to address the growing demand during times of peak electrical load. According to the US Department of Energy (DOE), demand response reflects "changes in electric usage by end-use customers from their normal consumption patterns in response to changes in the price of electricity over time, or to incentive payments designed to induce lower electricity use at times of high wholesale market prices or when system reliability is jeopardized." 1 The California Energy Commission (CEC) defines DR as "a reduction in customers' electricity consumption over a given time interval relative to what would otherwise occur in response to a price signal, other financial incentives, or a reliability signal." 2 This latter definition is perhaps most reflective of how DR is understood and implemented today in countries such as the US, Canada, and Australia where DR is primarily a dispatchable resource responding to signals from utilities, grid operators, and/or load aggregators (or DR providers).

Download or read book A Classification of Demand Side Management Concepts Their Potentials for a Renewable Energy System in Germany written by Lukas Schirren and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2023-04-12 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Energy Sciences, grade: 1.3, Technical University of Berlin (Wirtschafts- und Infrastrukturpolitik), language: English, abstract: This paper will analyse Demand Side Management (DSM), an approach to include the demand side in the electricity system and consequently increase flexibility. The demand side should be regarded as a variable and not as fixed, as Gellings put it beautifully. With renewable energy, energy production becomes a variable source, and the demand has to adapt accordingly. The concept of DSM has been used in the USA since the 1980s but remains a novel subject in the European Union (EU). In 2009, the European Commission set the target to increase the capacities of DSM because only a tenth of the actual potential was used within the EU in 2014. A significant obstacle regarding DSM is the deviating estimation of DSM Potentials. There exist multiple studies, which estimate the potential in Germany, but due to the high deviations that exist between them, making it is dicult to estimate the real potential. For investments, this is an important measure, and it should have high accuracy. These deviations potentially come from a missing definition for DSM, which is often entangled with Demand Response (DR), sector coupling and load management. As no clear definition or distinction to other terms is visible, it seems necessary to define the term DSM. For that, chapter 2 analyses the initial objective, modern approach and relative terms of DSM. Eventually, this leads to a more precise distinction, which helps to calculate the DSM potential from Germany with a broad analysis of multiple studies. These studies are typically based on different assumptions and were conducted in different years, therefore having different annual electricity consumption and consequently di↵erent potentials (Ladwig, 2018). A normalisation with regard to the annual electricity consumption will be performed and followed by a distinction of the assumed restrictions. Here, it helps to look at the DSM groups, which can implement DSM measures and point out their individual restrictions and challenges that would limit their potential or increase the complexity of integration. Scientific modelling helps to estimate the effects of novel approaches on the electricity system. As DSM has many interdependencies and is very decentralised through many individual participants, different approaches for a framework of DSM will be analysed.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power systems must be actively managed to maintain a steady balance between supply and demand. This is already a complex task as demand varies continually. But what happens when supply becomes more variable and less certain, as with some renewable sources of electricity like wind and solar PV that fluctuate with the weather? to what extent can the resources that help power systems cope with the challenge of variability in demand also be applied to variability of supply? How large are these resources? and what share of electricity supply from variable renewables can they make possible? There is no one-size-fits-all answer. the ways electricity is produced, transported and consumed around the world exhibit great diversity. Grids can cross borders, requiring co-ordinated international policy, or can be distinct within a single country or region. and whether found in dispatchable power plants, storage facilities, interconnections for trade or on the demand side, the flexible resource that ensures the provision of reliable power in the face of uncertainty likewise differs enormously. Written for decision makers, Harnessing Variable Renewables: a Guide to the Balancing Challenge sheds light on managing power systems with large shares of variable renewables. It presents a new, step-by-step approach developed by the IEA to assess the flexibility of power systems, which identifies the already present resources that could help meet the twin challenges of variability and uncertainty.

Download or read book Demand side Management Through the Implementation of an Internet of Things Based Energy Management System written by Andy Pimentel and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A steadily increasing energy demand has placed electrical grids in more frequent stress conditions with many struggling to withstand the requested capacity. Increases in grid capacity are costly and difficult to implement leaving many grids in the constant threat of failure. Demand-Side Management (DSM) is a solution to this ever increasing consumer energy demand. Through requests and alerts from a production company, consumer energy use can be influenced and result in a curbed peak energy demand, reduction of stress on the grid, and yield economic benefits for both the consumer and production company. For DSM to be achievable, communication between the production company and the consumer must be viable. DSM is not widely implemented in the consumer sector and is scarce in the industrial sector due to a lack of communication between production companies and the consumer. The internet is an easily accessible avenue of communication that would permit production companies to quickly and easily relay requests to consumers. Through the internet and a cooperating consumer base, production companies would be able to easily perform DSM in an area. Implementing Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in a home energy management system would allow for automated responses to usage requests and make influencing consumer demand a more rapid process. This work demonstrates that the IoT is a reliable means of communication between consumers and a production company and can be used to establish DSM in the consumer sector. It presents a design for an IoT based home energy management system that performs DSM through automated direct load control and a real-time pricing consumer incentive program. Load profiles based on mock hourly consumer load usage were simulated through Matlab and they demonstrate that the system is capable of quickly altering consumer energy demand through peak clipping and load shifting DSM techniques.
