“…The status of the SMs deployment is somehow heterogeneous in Europe [14] [15] and in the rest of the world [16] [17]. For example, in Finland government gave regulation that at least 80% of all customers had to be equipped with remote readable energy meters (capable of hourly consumption measurements) by the end of 2013.…”

Traditional low voltage grids are equipped with meters for the accounting of the energy consumed by customers. Recently, the use of electronic meters offers the possibility of the remote reading. This paper deals with smart sensing: a secondgeneration Smart Meters replacing traditional metering device, and the first generation of electronic meters, in order to extract a richer and near real-time information. This information in then transferred on a fast communication network where is needed. In other words, the Smart Meters deployed over the distribution grid create a Sensor Network used for grid control and management. The intelligent unit employed in the proposed system is able to communicate using standard metering protocols like DLMS/COSEM, allowing high-level integration with systems that use this information for both billing and customer relationship management -as is today with Automatic Meter Management systems -and for the technical management of the LV power infrastructure like Distribution Management Systems. The paper presents a pilot installation in a real grid of the smart sensor network composed about 50 new-generation Smart Meters using fast -broad-band -communication. The network of Smart Metershas been used to monitor, during a measurement campaign of two months, the Power Quality of a part of the distribution grid. During the campaign, the grid voltage is below the 5 % of the nominal value only for the 3 % of the time, despite the large presence of distributed renewable resources.

Present trends in the development of electricity systems are expected to generate a growing need for flexibility in decentralised resources, including demand response. In order to enable decentralised actors to create value, the organisation of markets and incentives should incorporate these new participants. The roll-out of smart metering to electricity consumers is an important precondition to establishing a flexible demand side and will provide essential information flows. On the basis of current incentive structures and related risks, however, the pass-through of information and value from wholesale market participants to the demand side is mostly infeasible, resulting in flexibility tasks being aggregated and delegated to balancing responsible wholesale traders. This analysis focuses on whether current incentives and roles are appropriate and where the design could be improved to establish a flexible demand side with a particular focus on the Danish case. Design-related barriers are identified that affect expected value, associated risks, and the distribution of responsibilities. This serves as a basis to define policy options in the context of Nordic electricity markets.

“…However for such kind of small-scale end users, beyond the technical feasibility in the compressor motor and its drive system, it is necessary to develop a transparent and real-time power market [8,16], which could provide solutions, such as load evaluation, bids incentive rules and so on. In fact, some commercial energy management products already provided such kind of possibility, for example home energy management system (HEMS) and building energy management system (BEMS).…”

Tremendous air-conditioner loads already have significant impact on the operation safety of Chinese distribution system. In the view of demand response, this paper aims to enhance distribution system voltage stability by improving inverter air-conditioners dynamic characteristics under power system short-term fluctuations. First of all, an inverter airconditioner load model based on dynamic phasor theory is proposed. Then after an analysis on some effect factors of airconditioners load characteristics, an autonomous control strategy for inverter air-conditioners is presented and verified by simulation results. Finally, in order to providing ancillary services to the power system, a preliminary thought by integrating inverter air-conditioners into the emerging energy management systems is proposed.
