R.; Bowker, B. G. (613) 954 3733 guy.newsham@nrc cnrc.gc.ca AbstractPeak demand for electricity in North America is expected to grow, challenging electrical utilities to supply this demand in a cost effective, reliable manner. Therefore, there is growing interest in strategies to reduce peak demand by eliminating electricity use, or shifting it to non peak times. This strategy is commonly called "demand response". In households, common strategies are time varying pricing, which charge more for energy use on peak, or direct load control, which allows utilities to curtail certain loads during high demand periods. We reviewed recent North American studies of these strategies.The data suggest that the most effective strategy is a critical peak price (CPP) program with enabling technology to automatically curtail loads on event days. There is little evidence that this causes substantial hardship for occupants, particularly if they have input into which loads are controlled and how, and have an override option. In such cases, a peak load reduction of at least 30% is a reasonable expectation. It might be possible to attain such load reductions without enabling technology by focusing on 1 household types more likely to respond, and providing them with excellent support. A simple time of use (TOU) program can only expect to realise on peak reductions of 5%.

“…As shown in figure 1, in monopoly situation, electric power enterprises price for Pm which is far higher than the marginal cost pricing Pc, the result reflected in the reality is high electricity price and little electricity supply (Herter K, 2007). Under perfect competition market condition, the commodity price of the goods is equal to marginal revenue and marginal cost, namely:…”

First this paper analyzes China electric power market price regulation and power supply enterprises' decision-making behaviors, and then carries on comparative analysis about integrated resource planning theory and integrated resource strategic thought under demand balance angle. The results show that integrated resource planning can reduce the power demand and optimize resource allocation, but integrated resource strategic planning under the demand side management has better effect, also can realize the whole society power resources optimal allocation. Keywords: demand side management, integrated resource planning, integrated resource strategic planning, supply and demand balance

Recent advances in information and communications technology (ICT) have initiated development of a smart electrical grid and smart buildings. Buildings consume a large portion of the total electricity production worldwide, and to fully develop a smart grid they must be integrated with that grid. Buildings can now be 'prosumers' on the grid (both producers and consumers), and the continued growth of distributed renewable energy generation is raising new challenges in terms of grid stability over various time scales. Buildings can contribute to grid stability by managing their overall electrical demand in response to current conditions. Facility managers must balance demand response requests by grid operators with energy needed to maintain smooth building operations. For example, maintaining thermal comfort within an occupied building requires energy and, thus an optimized solution balancing energy use with indoor environmental quality (adequate thermal comfort, lighting, etc.) is needed. Successful integration of buildings and their systems with the grid also requires interoperable data exchange. However, the adoption and integration of newer control and communication technologies into buildings can be problematic with older legacy HVAC and building control systems. Public policy and economic structures have not kept up with the technical developments that have given rise to the budding smart grid, and further developments are needed in both technical and nontechnical areas.
