The popularization of distributed energy resources transforms end-users from consumers into prosumers. Inspired by the sharing economy principle, energy sharing markets for prosumers are proposed to facilitate the utilization of renewable…
Energy cooperatives (ECs) such as residential and industrial microgrids have the potential to mitigate increasing fluctuations in renewable electricity generation, but only if their joint response is coordinated. However, the coordination…
This paper investigates distributed control and incentive mechanisms to coordinate distributed energy resources (DERs) with both continuous and discrete decision variables as well as device dynamics in distribution grids. We formulate a…
The co-optimization of behind-the-meter distributed energy resources is considered for prosumers under the net energy metering tariff. The distributed energy resources considered include renewable generations, flexible demands, and battery…
This paper presents an original collaborative framework for power exchanges inside a low voltage community. The community seeks to minimize its total costs by scheduling on a daily basis the resources of its members. In this respect, their…
Local electricity markets offer a promising solution for integrating renewable energy sources and other distributed energy resources (DERs) into distribution networks. These markets enable the effective utilization of flexible resources by…
The increasing adoption of advanced metering infrastructure has led to growing concerns regarding privacy risks stemming from the high resolution measurements. This has given rise to privacy protection techniques that physically alter the…
Renewable distributed energy resources (DERs) have the potential to provide multi-location electricity consumers (MLECs) with electricity at prices lower than those offered by the grid using behind-the-meter advantages. This study examines…
We consider the aggregation of distributed energy resources (DERs), such as solar PV, energy storage, and flexible loads, by a profit-seeking aggregator participating directly in the wholesale market under distribution network access…
This paper formulates a time-varying social-welfare maximization problem for distribution grids with distributed energy resources (DERs) and develops online distributed algorithms to identify (and track) its solutions. In the considered…
Distributed ledgers are a new type of database technology that allows open access to data stored across distributed, decentralised, publicly maintained infrastructures. Current implementations of the such ledgers expect competition between…
Demand side management (DSM) is a key solution for reducing the peak-time power consumption in smart grids. To provide incentives for consumers to shift their consumption to off-peak times, the utility company charges consumers differential…
The continuous penetration of distributed energy resources (DER) in the electric power grid is driving a new paradigm shift towards transactive energy system (TES), an active and more sustainable system characterized by distributed…
The rapid proliferation of distributed energy resources (DERs) and the electrification of residential loads offer significant potential for grid flexibility but pose stability challenges under static pricing regimes. Specifically, high…
The global energy transition towards distributed, smaller-scale resources, such as decentralized generation and flexible assets like storage and shiftable loads, demands novel control structures aligned with the emerging network…
This paper proposes a novel hierarchically coordinated energy management system (EMS) for a regional community (e.g., residential area, campus, industrial park, etc.) comprising multiple small-scale microgrids (MGs) (e.g., houses,…
Energy management of buildings is of vital importance for the urban low-carbon transition. This paper proposes a sustainable energy cooperation framework for the building community by communication-efficient peer-to-peer transaction.…
Many residential prosumers exhibit a high price-tolerance for household electricity bills and a low response to price incentives. This is because the household electricity bills are not inherently high, and the potential for saving on…
Here, a novel energy trading system is proposed for demand-side management of a neighborhood area network (NAN) consisting of a shared energy storage (SES) provider, users with non-dispatchable energy generation, and an electricity…
The paper introduces an advanced Decentralized Energy Marketplace (DEM) integrating blockchain technology and artificial intelligence to manage energy exchanges among smart homes with energy storage systems. The proposed framework uses…
