This paper investigates effects of realistic, non-ideal, decisions of energy users as to whether to participate in an energy trading system proposed for demand-side management of a residential community. The energy trading system adopts a…
The large-scale integration of renewable generation directly affects the reliability of power grids. We investigate the problem of power balancing in a general renewable-integrated power grid with storage and flexible loads. We consider a…
This paper proposes a novel energy sharing mechanism for prosumers who can produce and consume. Different from most existing works, the role of individual prosumer as a seller or buyer in our model is endogenously determined. Several…
In this paper we present a systematic review of various home energy management (HEM) schemes. Employment of home energy management programs will make the electricity consumption smarter and more efficient. Advantages of HEM include,…
This paper develops a multi-objective optimization framework to analyze the trade-offs between annual costs and resilience in energy communities. Under this framework, three energy community operation strategies are analyzed: a reference…
Renewable energy sources (RES) has gained significant interest in recent years. However, due to favourable weather conditions, the RES is installed in remote locations with limited transmission capacity. As a result, it can lead to major…
Economic model predictive control has been proposed as a means for solving the unit loading and unit allocation problem in multi-chiller cooling plants. The adjective economic stems from the use of financial cost due to electricity…
This paper studies the energy management in the coordinated multi-point (CoMP) systems powered by smart grids, where each base station (BS) with local renewable energy generation is allowed to implement the two-way energy trading with the…
This paper investigates smart home energy management in consideration of tradeoffs between residential privacy and energy costs. A multiobjective approach that minimizes energy costs and maximizes privacy protection is proposed. The…
Electric vehicles (EVs) are an eco-friendly alternative to vehicles with internal combustion engines. Despite their environmental benefits, the massive electricity demand imposed by the anticipated proliferation of EVs could jeopardize the…
The increasing presence of decentralized renewable generation in the power grid has motivated consumers to install batteries to save excess energy for future use. The high price of energy storage calls for a shared storage system, but…
In the emerging hybrid electricity market, mobile network operators (MNOs) of cellular networks can make day-ahead energy purchase commitments at low prices and real-time flexible energy purchase at high prices. To minimize electricity…
It is anticipated that an uncoordinated operation of individual home energy management (HEM) systems in a neighborhood would have a rebound effect on the aggregate demand profile. To address this issue, this paper proposes a coordinated…
The work presented in this paper relates to a small scale district heating network heated by a gas fired CHP. In most common situations, such a CHP is heat driven operated, meaning that the CHP will switch on whenever heat is needed, while…
Self-powered, energy harvesting small cell base stations (SBS) are expected to be an integral part of next-generation wireless networks. However, due to uncertainties in harvested energy, it is necessary to adopt energy efficient power…
Adoption of battery energy storage systems for behind-the-meters application offers valuable benefits for demand charge management as well as increasing PV-utilization. The key point is that while the benefit/cost ratio for a single…
We study the optimal management of a photovoltaic system's battery owned by a self-consumption group that aims to minimize energy consumption costs. We assume that the photovoltaic system is composed of a photovoltaic panel and a battery,…
This paper presents a flexible energy management system (EMS) for an electric bus charging station (EBCS) that integrates renewable generation, energy storage, and electric bus (EB) charging while accounting for uncertainties in solar PV…
In this paper, we propose to model the energy consumption of smart grid households with energy storage systems as an intertemporal trading economy. Intertemporal trade refers to transaction of goods across time when an agent, at any time,…
Contemporary industrial parks are challenged by the growing concerns about high cost and low efficiency of energy supply. Moreover, in the case of uncertain supply/demand, how to mobilize delay-tolerant elastic loads and compensate…
