Evaluation and Assessment of New Demand Response Products based on the use of Flexibility in Industrial Processes: Application to the Food Industry

Renewable generation and demand response integration in micro-grids: development of a new energy management and control system

“…Avoided atmospheric emissions can be assessed by using the methodology proposed in [27], where the coefficients which calculate the amount of CO 2 per MWh emitted in each time period are considered. Those factors may differ depending on the power generation mix at the time under consideration.…”

Certification prerequisites for activities related to the trading of demand response resources

“…DRPRs have been traditionally developed by the final users of DR services, such as TSOs and utilities [9]. However, the development of standard DRPRs is a new business which could be performed by an independent entity.…”

“…Depending on how Demand Response actions are performed, the different actions can be divided into three blocks, as shown in Figure 1 [9]:…”

“…DR has proven to be a useful mechanism that produces significant benefits for both the customer and the power system [9][10][11][12][13]. Thus, customers may enrol in some DR program, designed and implemented by energy suppliers and network operators.…”

Methodology for the identification, evaluation and prioritization of market handicaps which prevent the implementation of Demand Response: Application to European electricity markets

“…The use of Demand Response (DR), understood as the ability of energy consumers to modify the power demand from their expected consumption (Alcázar-Ortega, 2011), may benefit many different market agents in the power system, who can use DR mechanisms for different reasons. Among others, Transmission or Distribution System Operators (TSO/DSOs) may use DR resources to increment capacity reserve in their operation area, or retailers could make use of it in order to balance their energy portfolio.…”
