“…Consequently, consumers would unquestionably gain from DR. Secondly the net social welfare is indeterminate due to the absence of real-time magnitude of the shifts in demand for different prices and the elasticity of demand. Therefore, in [8], authors proposed agile demand response as an alternative to traditional demand response schemes, as it endeavors to increase social welfare by branching the aggregation of DR benefits into two independent hierarchical nodes, namely domotic and aggregator. As shown in Fig.…”

“…Heretofore these has been no contribution that mathematically formulates the applied methodology for explicit demand response with the concept of agility. In [8], authors presented a concept that fills in the research gap between marketdriven bidding model of demand flexibility in multi-agent system and DR planning. For this reason, first time this work formulates an extensive rules for complex bidding in agile DR in combination with the principle of decentralized learning.…”

“…, ∀ a ∈ A d Given observation 3 and 4 hold, then the formal definition of g function to capture all the objectives and constraints can be stated as: Until a is terminated minimization problem (8). Then, it is concluded from (12) that the domotic agent will learn to schedule the appliance agent without any delay provided its bid λ k d,a > Γ k , otherwise the appliance agent can contribute more flexibility in scheduling i.e.…”

That is why, the concept of agile DR has been developing which does not require significant changes in existing functioning of the stakeholders and would allow fair sharing of DR benefit among all [8]- [10].…”

Abstract:Energy efficient prosumer microgrids (PMGs) with active and flexible demand side management (DSM) mechanisms are considered to be crucial elements of future smart grids. Due to an increasing share of renewable energy and the growing power demand, appropriate tools to manage not only the loads but also small generation units, heating and cooling systems, storage units and electric vehicles should be provided for them. Therefore, this paper proposes an innovative approach to both physical and logical organization of an active DSM system for future building-integrated prosumer microgrids (BIPMGs), based on standard building automation and control systems (BACS) as well as Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm. New event-triggered control functions with developed universal, logical interfaces for open BACS and IoT network nodes are presented and their implementation in smart metering as well as fully integrated energy management mechanisms is analyzed. Finally, potential energy efficiency improvements with proposed BACS functions are discussed, based on BACS efficiency requirements defined in the EN 15232 standard.

Summary As power generation is shifting from centralised towards distributed, the function of the distribution network is changing. With the introduction of active loads and controllable inverters, new possibilities for controlling the distribution network arise. By providing network support services, the hosting capacity of the low voltage‐network can, for instance, be increased. To be able to provide these services, coordination and control of these smart devices is vital, however, challenges with the communication architecture still exist. Therefore, a new architecture has to be defined which can handle many different kinds of smart devices and is capable of meeting the communication requirements of legacy devices and different actors. To this extent, a three‐layer‐control architecture is proposed. This architecture separates the physical assets from the communication infrastructure and the services offered by smart devices. To demonstrate the applicability as well as the benefits of such an architecture in real life, a field trial has been performed. Through the separation of the three layers, limitations of the physical devices are addressed by algorithmic changes in the communication layer. The field trial shows the possibility of unlocking the new control options in the distribution network with legacy systems.
