A day-ahead scheduling framework for thermostatically controlled loads with thermal inertia and thermal comfort model

Journal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy, 2019
This paper proposes a day-ahead dispatch framework of thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) for system peak load reduction. The proposed day-ahead scheduling framework estimates the user's indoor thermal comfort degree through the building ...

Smart Fridge / Dumb Grid? Demand Dispatch for the Power Grid of 2020

, 2015
In discussions at the 2015 HICSS meeting, it was argued that loads can provide most of the ancillary services required today and in the future. Through load-level and grid-level control design, high-quality ancillary service for the grid is obtained ...
