The proposed model of this study is a single supply of electrical energy and is used in distribution systems. The objective of this study is to optimize the distribution of active and reactive energy in the supply of sub-distribution or the market. The model proposed in this paper accounts for the effects associated with switching capacitors on distribution and dispatching centers. Using capacitors in the power grid has an effect on bus voltage and consequently the amount of active and reactive energy demand of the consumer. The optimized supply is determined through the solution of a mathematical operation model. In this study, the effect of voltage changes on consumer demand for residential,commercial and industrial power are quantified and embodied in an analytical model, which is then solved using General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS) software.ware.
We consider the problem of designing an expected-revenue maximizing mechanism for allocating multiple non-perishable goods of $k$ varieties to flexible consumers over $T$ time steps. In our model, a random number of goods of each variety may become available to the seller at each time and a random number of consumers may enter the market at each time. Each consumer is present in the market for one time step and wants to consume one good of one of its desired varieties. Each consumer is associated with a flexibility level that indicates the varieties of the goods it is equally interested in. A …
This paper is devoted to a consumer-preferred community-level energy management system (CEMS), in which a system manager allows consumers their selfish decisions of power-saving while regulating the overall demand-supply imbalance. The key structure of the system is to weakly control consumers: the controller sends the allowable range of the power-saving amount to each consumer, which is modeled by a set-valued control signal. Then, the consumers decide the amount in the range based on their private preference. In this paper, we address the design problem of the controller that generates the s…
Reducing global carbon emissions will require diverse industrial sectors to use energy more efficiently, electrify, and operate intermittently. The water sector is a transformation target, but we lack energy quantification tools to guide operational, infrastructure, and policy interventions in complex water sourcing, treatment, and distribution networks. The marginal energy intensity (MEI) of water supply quantifies the location-specific, instantaneous embedded energy in water delivered to consumers. We describe the first MEI algorithm and elucidate the sensitivity of MEI to generalizable wate…
Distributed energy resources behind the meter and automation systems enable traditional electricity consumers to become prosumers (producers/consumers) that can participate in peer-to-peer exchange of electricity and in retail electricity markets. Emerging prosumers can provide benefits to the system by exchanging energy and energy-related services. More importantly, they can do so in a more honest and more competitive way than the traditional producer/consumer systems. We extend the traditional Cournot model to show that the dual nature of prosumers can lead to more competitive behavior under…
This work studies the decentralized and uncoordinated energy source selection problem for smart-grid consumers with heterogeneous energy profiles and risk attitudes: they compete for a limited amount of renewable energy in their local community, at the risk of paying a higher cost if that energy is not enough to supply all such demand. We model this problem as a non-cooperative game and study the existence of mixed-strategy Nash equilibria (NE) under the proportional allocation policy employed when the total demand for renewable energy exceeds the available one. We derive under NE closed-form …
Supply chain management has been concentrated on productive ways to manage flows through a sophisticated vendor, manufacturer, and consumer networks for decades. Recently, energy and material rates have been greatly consumed to improve the sector, making sustainable development the core problem for advanced and developing countries. A new approach of supply chain management is proposed to maintain the economy along with the environment issue for the design of supply chain as well as the highest reliability in the planning horizon to fulfill customers demand as much as possible. This paper aims…
Utilizing distributed renewable and energy storage resources via peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading has long been touted as a solution to improve energy system's resilience and sustainability. Consumers and prosumers (those who have energy generation resources), however, do not have expertise to engage in repeated P2P trading, and the zero-marginal costs of renewables present challenges in determining fair market prices. To address these issues, we propose a multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) framework to help automate consumers' bidding and management of their solar PV and energy storag…
Although electric power networks and district heating networks are physically coupled, they are not operated in a coordinated manner. With increasing penetration of renewable energy sources, a coordinated market-based operation of the two networks can yield significant advantages, as reduced need for grid reinforcements, by optimizing the power flows in the coupled systems. Transactive control has been developed as a promising approach based on market and control mechanisms to coordinate supply and demand in energy systems, which when applied to power systems is being referred to as transactiv…
There are a multitude of Blockchain-based physical infrastructure systems, operating on a crypto-currency enabled token economy, where infrastructure suppliers are rewarded with tokens for enabling, validating, managing and/or securing the system. However, today's token economies are largely designed without infrastructure systems in mind, and often operate with a fixed token supply (e.g., Bitcoin). This paper argues that token economies for infrastructure networks should be structured differently - they should continually incentivize new suppliers to join the network to provide services and s…
Future energy systems rely mostly on supply-dependent resources like wind and solar energy. Since most of the produced energy from distributed renewable sources arises as electricity, electrification of energy consumers and producers, called prosumers, expands. In this context, multi-modal distribution grids make use of the storage capabilities of other energy sectors like heat, and abolish the supply-dependency and uncertainty of the feed-in of decentralized generators. This provides flexibility in the energy system, which increases security of supply and at the same time ensures economical e…
