Modeling and control of thermostatically controlled loads
As the penetration of intermittent energy sources grows substantially, loads will be required to play an increasingly important role in compensating the fast time-scale fluctuations in generated power. Recent numerical modeling of thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) has demonstrated that such load following is feasible, but analytical models that ...

Smart Finite State Devices: A Modeling Framework for Demand Response Technologies [PDF]
We introduce and analyze Markov Decision Process (MDP) machines to model individual devices which are expected to participate in future demand-response markets on distribution grids.

Aggregation of thermostatically controlled loads by formal abstractions [PDF]
This work discusses a two-step procedure based on formal abstractions, which generates a finite stochastic dynamical model as an aggregation of the continuous temperature dynamics of a population of Thermostatically Controlled Loads (TCL). The temperature of each single TCL is described by a stochastic difference equation and the TCL status (ON, OFF ...

Online Convex Optimization with Binary Constraints
We consider online optimization with binary decision variables and convex loss functions. We design a new algorithm, binary online gradient descent (bOGD) and bound its expected dynamic regret.

Due to the transmission demand for massive demand-side data, the pressure on communication networks has doubled and redoubled, leading to communication delays, congestion, interruptions, and other problems, which impact the real-time interaction of ...

Assessing the Demand Side Management Potential and the Energy Flexibility of Heat Pumps in Buildings
The energy demand in buildings represents a considerable share of the overall energy use. Given the significance and acknowledged flexibility of thermostatically controlled loads, they represent an interesting option for the implementation of demand side

Safe control of thermostatically controlled loads with installed timers for demand side management
We develop safe protocols for thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) to provide power pulses to the grid without a subsequent oscillatory response.

Optimization modeling method for coal-to-electricity heating load considering differential decisions
Heating by electricity rather than coal is considered one effective way to reduce environmental problems. Thus, the electric heating load is growing rapidly, which may cause undesired problems in distribution grids because of the randomness and dispersed
