Quasi real-time ZIP load modeling for Conservation Voltage Reduction of smart distribution networks using disaggregated AMI data

Distributed Online Load Sensitivity Identification by Smart Transformer and Industrial Metering

“…Theoretically, the proposed approach can be implemented on an AMI-based platform [16], detecting response of loads at end-user level, instead of just substation or street control panel level. The OLLI approach does not require significant computation effort and sensitivities calculations could be made locally.…”

Monitoring and managing of a micro-smart grid for renewable sources exploitation in an agro-industrial site

“…Many initiatives can be found in the literature about the implementation of the above described concepts (Asmus, 2010), working not only for the electricity management and optimization (Manbachi et al, 2015) but also for the thermal energy management and optimization.…”

A novel Volt-VAR Optimization engine for smart distribution networks utilizing Vehicle to Grid dispatch

“…CVR attempts to maintain customer's voltage level in the lower limits of ANSI or CSA standard range [3,4] to achieve energy conservation with minimal impact on customer load profile, due to different percentage of voltage reduction in a specific time period based on CVR factors. CVR factor represents the ratio of energy consumption to voltage reduction [5]. In other words, by diving the percentage of the energy consumption by the percentage of voltage reduction, CVR factor will be determined.…”

“…Moreover, capturing and transmitting huge amount of data might not be cost effective. The literature contains relatively few studies [5,27,37,42] focusing on decentralized-VVO technique which employs local control to optimize the operation of VVO components on a feeder. Moreover, other existing VVO technologies that extend the reach of the VVO from substation to the termination points such as Model-based technology [18,43] and AMI based technology haven't focused on the role of new dispatch-able power sources on VVO.…”
