Ensemble of Thermostatically Controlled Loads: Statistical Physics Approach [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Thermostatically 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 ...

Hierarchical Control of Thermostatically Controller Loads for Primary Frequency Control [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE 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.
