“…Solutions such as demand response (DR), whereby users of electricity modify their daily (and sometimes seasonal) demand in order to close the power demand–supply gap have been widely investigated, with a plethora of available literature reporting both theoretical concepts and applications to end‐users in the residential, commercial (popularly, buildings 1,2 ) and industrial realms. While a comprehensive review is beyond the scope of the current paper, we recall several examples of the latter application domain that come from chemical processing and related industries: chlor‐alkali 3,4 (which will be discussed later in this paper as well), air separation, 5‐7 pulp and paper production, 8 cement kilns, 9 glass furnaces 10 and steel manufacturing 11 . These works typically assume engagement in the long‐term (day‐ahead) markets, but participation in short‐term (frequency regulation) programs has also been considered 12,13 .…”
