The prediction of water consumption patterns is a challenge, especially when water metering is not available at scale. The paper focuses on the prediction of analytical domestic hot water (DHW) demand profiles for detailed ...
With the increasing share of renewable energy sources (RES) in demand supply, the distribution network operators (DNOs) are facing with new challenges. In one hand, it is desirable to increase the ability of the network ...
The continued penetration of renewable energy sources in electricity generation and the de-carbonization of the domestic space heating and hot water sectors is increasing the importance of demand side management (DSM). The ...
Renewables are increasingly replacing power from conventional generators. Renewable power injected through power electronic converters lacks the fundamental electric torque components. Electric torque components have an ...
With increasing penetrations of wind generation, based on power-electronic converters, power systems are transitioning away from well-understood synchronous generator-based systems, with growing implications for their ...
Detailed bottom-up load modelling of the residential sector has become increasingly important to examine the network impacts of both changing load composition due to the introduction of sustainable technologies, and changing ...
Power network diagrams are typically neither enlightening nor attractive to look at. Encouragingly, though, the visualization of generic complex networks has been an active area of research for the past two decades, and ...
Increasing wind capacity integration results in displacement of active power from conventional generators and a reduction in reactive power sources available. As such, voltage stability may become a concern in certain ...
This paper investigates demand response measures, using an EnergyPlus simulation model, developed specifically for demand response analysis, in a mixed-used commercial building. The effectiveness of various building ...
Traditional building performance metrics consider a building as a standalone and static utility consumer. Voluntary green building certifications of districts generally aggregate the metrics of standalone and consuming ...
Aims: The prediction of water consumption patterns is a challenge, especially when water metering is not available at scale. The use of time-of-use survey (TUS) data offers an alternative to metering in order to track the ...
This paper develops an algorithm for energy management of a distribution network considering a restorative plan for most possible devastating contingencies in the network. The distribution network is selfhealing and consists ...
The presence of uncertain parameters in electrical power systems presents an ongoing problem for system operators and other stakeholders when it comes to making decisions.Determining the most appropriate dispatch schedule ...
Worldwide, variable-speed wind turbine and solar photovoltaic generation are displacing conventional power plant in market schedules. Committing out-of-merit conventional units to redress system synchronous inertia or ...
Advances in communications technology, higher penetration rates of renewable energy and an evolution towards smarter electrical grids are enabling a greater role from demand side response (DSR) in maintaining power system ...
In restructured power systems, generation and commercialization activities became market activities, while transmission and distribution activities continue as regulated monopolies. As a result, the adequacy of transmission ...
Buildings tend to not operate as intended, and a pronounced gap often exists between measured and predicted environmental and energy performance. Although the causes of this ‘performance gap’ are multi-faceted, issues ...
Thermal Electric Storage (TES) has emerged as a promising technology for enhancing the flexibility of the built environment to participate in active Demand Side Management (DSM). These devices allow the decoupling of ...
This paper exploits a whole-building energy simulation approach to develop and evaluate demand response strategies for commercial buildings. The research is motivated by the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources ...
This work describes a technique to define a single parametric equation that estimates remote conditions within a distribution network, in an online setting, without dedicated telemetry. In this novel approach, a departure ...
