Decentralized Control of Thermostatic Loads for Flexible Demand Response [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE 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 ...

Stochastic battery model for aggregation of thermostatically controlled loads [PDF]

open access: yes2016 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology (ICIT), 2016
The potential of demand side as a frequency reserve proposes interesting opportunity in handling imbalances due to intermittent renewable energy sources. This paper proposes a novel approach for computing the parameters of a stochastic battery model representing the aggregation of Thermostatically Controlled Loads (TCLs).

Aggregation of Thermostatically Controlled Loads for Flexibility Markets

open access: yesCIRED 25th International Conference on Electricity Distribution, 2019
This paper presents a tool for an aggregator of thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) to optimally combine their flexibilities into a few representative bids to be submitted to flexibility markets. The tool employs a “bottom-up” approach based on physical end-use load models, being the individual flexibility of each individual TCL simulated with a ...
