As the number of prosumers with distributed energy resources (DERs) grows, the conventional centralized operation scheme may suffer from conflicting interests, privacy concerns, and incentive inadequacy. In this paper, we propose an energy…
Convergence bidding has been adopted in recent years by most Independent System Operators (ISOs) in the United States as a relatively new market mechanism to enhance market efficiency. Convergence bidding affects many aspects of the…
One of the most important challenges facing an electric grid is to incorporate renewables and distributed energy resources (DERs) to the grid. Because of the associated uncertainties in power generations and peak power demands,…
The pursuit of sustainability motivates microgrids that depend on distributed resources to produce more renewable energies. An efficient operation and planning relies on a holistic framework that takes into account the interdependent…

This two-part paper addresses the design of retail electricity tariffs for distribution systems with distributed energy resources (DERs). Part I presents a framework to optimize an ex-ante two-part tariff for a regulated monopolistic…
Over the past years, distributed energy resources (DER) have been the object of many studies, which recognise and establish their emerging role in the future of power systems. However, the implementation of many scenarios and mechanism are…
Retail electrical power marketers, also known as retailers, typically set up contracts with suppliers to secure electricity at fixed prices on the one hand and with end users to meet their load requirements at agreed rates on the other…
The rapid growth of distributed energy resources (DERs), including rooftop solar and energy storage, is transforming the grid edge, where distributed technologies and customer-side systems increasingly interact with the broader power grid.…
Dynamic operating envelopes (DOEs) have been introduced in recent years as a means to manage the operation of distributed energy resources (DERs) within the network operational constraints. DOEs can be used by network operators to…
The implementation of optimal power flow (OPF) methods to perform voltage and power flow regulation in electric networks is generally believed to require extensive communication. We consider distribution systems with multiple controllable…
Most 3D object generators prioritize aesthetic quality, often neglecting the physical constraints necessary for practical applications. One such constraint is that a 3D object should be self-supporting, i.e., remain balanced under gravity.…
This paper presents a new distributed control framework to coordinate inverter-interfaced distributed energy resources (DERs) in island microgrids. We show that under bounded load uncertainties, the proposed control method can steer the…
The enormous technological potential accumulated over the past two decades would make it possible to change the operating principles of power systems entirely. The consequent technological evolution is not only affecting the structure of…
With more and more distributed energy resources (DERs) deployed in Integrated Energy Systems (IESs), frequency stability challenges the pursuit of reliability and efficiency. This paper proposes a fully-distributed frequency control method…
