They may be defined differently or more generally in other contexts. Grid services Services that support the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity and provide value through avoided electricity generation and/or delivery costs; this report series focuses on grid services that can be provided by grid-interactive efficient buildings. Distributed energy resource (DER) A behind-the-meter resource that provides electricity generation, storage, or demand flexibility. Examples of DERs include solar photovoltaics (PV), wind, combined heat and power, stationary batteries, electric vehicles, and demand flexibility mechanisms such as smart thermostats, connected building automation systems (BAS), and other remotely controllable loads (National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners 2016). Energy efficiency Ongoing reduction in annual energy use to provide the same or improved level of building function. Demand flexibility Capability of DERs to adjust a building's load profile across different timescales; energy flexibility and load flexibility are often used interchangeably with demand flexibility. Demand response Activation of demand flexibility in response to price signals or explicit commands from the grid. Grid-interactive efficient building (GEB) An energy-efficient building that uses smart technologies and on-site DERs to provide demand flexibility while co-optimizing for energy cost, grid services, and occupant needs and preferences in a continuous and integrated way. Smart technologies for energy management Controls, sensors, models and analytics used to manage energy efficiency and demand flexibility in buildings and DERs. GEBs are characterized by their use of these technologies.

Abstract-In future smart grids, large-scale deployment of distributed energy resources (DERs) and renewable energy sources (RES) is expected. In order to integrate a high penetration level of DERs and RES in the grid while operating the system safely and efficiently, new control methods for power system operations are in demand so that the flexibility of the responsive assets in the grid can be further explored. Transactive control, considered as one of the most novel distributed control approaches for power system operations, has been extensively discussed and studied around the world in recent years. This paper provides a bibliographical review on the researches and implementation of the transactive energy concepts and transactive control techniques in power systems. The ideas of transactive control are introduced mainly according to the transactive energy framework proposed by the GridWise Architecture Council. The implementation pilots and research studies on transactive control applications in power systems are reviewed subsequently.

“…Equation (16) In this way, the EV drivers can avoid lining up in the same charging station so that the average waiting time of all EV users can be reduced. Planning the charging SOC range according to the cost model of battery degradation and drivers' next destinations can also reduce the waiting time since the electricity quantity to charge and charging duration are restricted.…”

“…In order to incentivize EV users to participate in charging management strategies, many charging strategies with pricing mechanisms for electricity to shift EV charging times have been proposed [12,13]. References [14][15][16] put forward a transactive control method which applies market mechanisms to engage self-interested responsive loads to flatten the daily load curve in the power grid. However, these methods can be an obstacle to the EVs' promotion because the high charging cost would make the cheap refuel cost no more an…”

Many electric vehicles' (EVs) charging strategies were proposed to optimize the operations of the power grid, while few focus on users' benefits from the viewpoint of EV users. However, low participation is always a problem of those strategies since EV users also need a charging strategy to serve their needs and interests. This paper proposes a method focusing on EV users' benefits that reduce the cost of battery capacity degradation, electricity cost, and waiting time for different situations. A cost model of battery capacity degradation under different state of charge (SOC) ranges is developed based on experimental data to estimate the cost of battery degradation. The simulation results show that the appropriate planning of the SOC range reduces 80% of the cost of battery degradation, and the queuing theory also reduces over 60% of the waiting time in the busy situations. Those works can also become a premise of charging management to increase the participation. The proposed strategy focusing on EV users' benefits would not give negative impacts on the power grid, and the grid load is also optimized by an artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA) in the solution space of the charging time restricted by EV users' benefits.
