Centralized and Decentralized Optimal Control of Variable Speed Heat Pumps
Energies, 2021 Utility service providers are often challenged with the synchronization of thermostatically controlled loads. Load synchronization, as a result of naturally occurring and demand-response events, has the potential to damage power distribution equipment ...

Power system virtual inertia implemented by thermostatically controlled loads
IET Smart Grid, 2020 It can be foreseen that the modern electric power system tends to have an increasing penetration of renewable energy sources (RESs) and controllable loads under ancillary services programmes, which will cause the power system inertia reduction.

Understanding the aggregate flexibility of thermostatically controlled loads
2017 IEEE Manchester PowerTech, 2017 Thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) are an attractive source of responsive demand. This paper aims to provides a better understanding of the relation between thermal properties of TCLs and their suitability to provide energy arbitrage and frequency services.

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
