We consider a consumer of a resource, such as electricity, who must pay a per unit charge to procure the resource, as well as a peak demand charge. We will assume that this consumer has some ability to self-generate and present an efficient linear programming formulation for the demand response of such a consumer. We will establish a monotonicity result that indicates fuel supply of S, utilized for self generation, may be spent in successive steps adding to S.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
