Developing an Algorithm to Consider Mutliple Demand Response Objectives
Journal Title: Engineering, Technology & Applied Science Research - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Due to technological improvement and changing environment, energy grids face various challenges, which, for example, deal with integrating new appliances such as electric vehicles and photovoltaic. Managing such grids has become increasingly important for research and practice, since, for example, grid reliability and cost benefits are endangered. Demand response (DR) is one possibility to contribute to this crucial task by shifting and managing energy loads in particular. Realizing DR thereby can address multiple objectives (such as cost savings, peak load reduction and flattening the load profile) to obtain various goals. However, current research lacks algorithms that address multiple DR objectives sufficiently. This paper aims to design a multi-objective DR optimization algorithm and to purpose a solution strategy. We therefore first investigate the research field and existing solutions, and then design an algorithm suitable for taking multiple objectives into account. The algorithm has a predictable runtime and guarantees termination.

Modeling and Control of a DFIG-Based Wind Turbine During a Grid Voltage Drop
Doubly-fed induction generators (DFIG) are widely used in wind energy generation systems. During a grid voltage drop, performance is degraded with rotor over current deteriorating the fault-ride through (FRT) capability...
SHAF for Mitigation of Current Harmonics Using p-q Method with PI and Fuzzy Controllers
Commencing with incandescent light bulb, every load today creates harmonics. Unfortunately, these loads vary with respect to their amount of harmonic content and response to problems caused by harmonics. Issue of Harmoni...

Frequency Estimation of Irregularly Sampled Data Using a Sparsity Constrained Weighted Least-Squares Approach
In this paper, a new method for frequency estimation of irregularly sampled data is proposed. In comparison with the previous sparsity-based methods where the sparsity constraint is applied to a least-squares fitting pro...
