Distributed coordination of household electricity consumption

2014 IEEE Conference on Control Applications (CCA), 2014
This work presents a distributed framework for coordination of flexible electricity consumption for a number of households in the distribution grid. We conduct coordination with the purpose of minimizing a trade-off between individual concerns about discomfort and electricity cost, on the one hand, and joint concerns about grid losses and voltage ...

A novel approach in household electricity consumption forecasting

2016 IEEE Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering (CCECE), 2016
In this paper, we devise a comprehensive model to forecast the energy consumption of the bulk energy consumers. The behavior of the bulk energy consumers is different and consumers has their own consumption patterns; therefore, we segment the bulk energy consumers into two clusters: low-consumption and high-consumption. Individual predictive models are

Household norms and their role in reducing household electricity consumption

International Journal of Consumer Studies, 2013
AbstractResearchers have only recently begun to investigate the role of the norms of the household or family group in energy‐efficiency decisions. These researchers have demonstrated that these norms can influence the behaviour and attitudes of children within the household.

Efficiency of household electricity consumption in Ghana

Energy Policy, 2020
Abstract One explanation that can be associated with the inadequate focus on demand-side management of household electricity consumption is the poor knowledge on consumption inefficiency. This study estimates the efficiency of Ghanaian households' electricity consumption and factors influencing inefficiency using the energy demand frontier model and ...

Households’ Perceptions on Electricity Consumption in Slovenia

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
The electricity market liberalisation for households in Slovenia aims to encourage new suppliers’ entries and thus greater market competition in electricity supply. It is interesting to investigate how households’ consumption in Slovenia has reacted in response to new opportunities in selection of suppliers and what are the Slovenian households ...

The electricity consumption in polish households

2015 Modern Electric Power Systems (MEPS), 2015
Efficient use of electricity in each of the sectors of the national economy is becoming increasingly important. Energy efficiency refers concerns both the wider energy and climate policy, as well as being important determinant of the cost of manufacturing companies (and therefore their profits) and of the socio-economic development.

Households electricity consumption analysis with data mining techniques

IECON 2016 - 42nd Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2016
Smart Grid improves the electricity grid infrastructure by introducing new powerful communication system between consumer and supplier. Implementation of smart meters increases the availability of detail level of consumer electricity load profile data. To improve and efficient planning and development of this new power system, a primary challenge is to

A Fuzzy Logic tool for household electrical consumption modeling

IECON 2013 - 39th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2013
This paper presents a high-resolution model of domestic electricity use, based on Fuzzy Logic Inference System (FIS). The model is built with a “bottom-up” approach and the basic block is the single appliance. Using as inputs patterns of active occupancy (i.e. when people are at home and awake) and typical domestic habits (i.e.

A meta-heuristic framework for forecasting household electricity consumption

Applied Soft Computing, 2011
It may be difficult to model household electricity consumption with conventional methods such as regression due to seasonal and monthly changes. This paper illustrates a flexible integrated meta-heuristic framework based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP), conventional regression and design of experiment (DOE) for ...
