Aggregate Control Strategy for Thermostatically Controlled Loads with Demand Response [PDF]
Energies, 2019 The improvement of intelligent appliances provides the basis for the demand response (DR) of residential loads. Thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) are one of the most important DR resources and are characterized by a large load and a high degree of

A novel distributed control framework for thermostatically controlled loads cluster
Discover Artificial IntelligenceRenewable energy is developing rapidly, and its intermittency and uncertainty pose a serious challenge to the grid’s regulation capability. Demand response, as a crucial means of integrating flexible load-side resources, has become a key technology in ...

Ensemble of Thermostatically Controlled Loads: Statistical Physics Approach [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractThermostatically controlled loads, e.g., air conditioners and heaters, are by far the most widespread consumers of electricity. Normally the devices are calibrated to provide the so-called bang-bang control – changing from on to off, and vice versa, depending on temperature.

Hierarchical Control of Thermostatically Controlled Loads for Primary Frequency Support [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, 2018 This paper proposes a hierarchical control of thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) to provide primary frequency control support. The control architecture is composed of three levels. At the high level, an aggregator coordinates multiple distribution substations and dispatches the primary reserve references.

Analysis and modelling of thermostatically-controlled loads [PDF]
Proceedings of 8th Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference on Industrial Applications in Power Systems, Computer Science and Telecommunications (MELECON 96), 2002 A general model of electric heating loads regulated by automatically-controlled thermostats is presented. The model is based on the equations of the thermal transients due to the thermostat operation. The power/voltage characteristic of a single load is obtained from the static analysis, showing its dependence on the most significant parameters of the ...

Voltage control-based ancillary service using thermostatically controlled loads
2016 IEEE Power and Energy Society General Meeting (PESGM), 2016 This paper discusses the possibility of providing voltage control-based ancillary services using thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs). The idea is to change the voltage at the point of common coupling in order to control power consumption of the TCLs through time. This allows to utilize the most common type of loads in the grid to provide ancillary

Decentralized Control of Thermostatic Loads for Flexible Demand Response [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 2015 Thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs), such as refrigerators, air-conditioners and space heaters, offer significant potential for short-term modulation of their aggregate power consumption. This ability can be used in principle to provide frequency response services, but controlling a multitude of devices to provide a measured collective response ...
