Application of DSM techniques and renewable energy devises for peak load management

Abstract

The growth of industries is very essential for the growth of any nation. Industries are mainly depending on electrical energy, but unfortunately the sources for electrical energy are depleting and hence the gap between the supplier and the load is continuously increasing. The work presented in this paper gives the results of application of a few DSM techniques along with batteries applied to an industrial customer. The work presented in this paper is lowering the maximum demand during peak hours and savings in the energy bill has been achieved by avoiding the penalty charges on MD. Application of few DSM techniques and batteries results in clipping down the peaks and filling the valleys that flattens the load curve of a milk industry, hence a great improvement in the load factor and savings in the energy bill for the consumers.

Demand Response in an Isolated System With High Wind Integration

“…For descriptions of currently applied DSM schemes in other countries in Europe, Asia and Latin America the work of [6] may be of interest. The potential of DSM activities and other parameters such as pricedemand elasticities, are assessed in [7]- [15] using empirical data. Models to express the reaction of demand to price are developed in [16]- [22].…”

“…The work of [14] presents customer-level demand for electricity by industrial and commercial customers purchasing electricity in the England and Wales electricity market. While former studies focused mainly on domestic electricity consumption the authors in [15] apply peak clipping and valley filling to different industries and analyze their cost saving potential.…”
