Decentralised operation of residential energy resources in the smart grid
In the future smart grid, improvement of power system economic cost effectiveness by suitable integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) is a critical challenge. An agent–based framework is proposed in this paper for developing suitable control strategies for operations of four different types of residential–level DERs, which are storage devices, photo voltaic systems, and two ...

Hello, Grid Edge. Goodbye, Smart Grid?
Depending on what part of the world you live in, you are continuously exposed to terms like Grid Edge and Smart Grid. But the narrative is not the same everywhere – some regions speak of supply and demand real time optimization, and others are concerned with reliability and generating useful energy data. Are we all living different electrical grid realities? Possibly. Let’s discuss ...

Could Grid Modernization Provide the Path to a More Equal Society?
Smart grids have been in the headlines for over a decade. Today we’ve finally reached an impasse: our existing energy infrastructure is no longer fit for purpose. It is crumbling under the weight of abnormal weather conditions, demand fluctuations, and momentous changes to baseloads, historically supported by fossil fuels. Just a few short months ago, flash flooding across Europe left many ...

A sociotechnical systems model for smart-grid adoption in mid-sized urban environments
In this paper, we present a quantified system dynamics model simulating the adoption of smart grid technologies such as electric vehicles, PV systems and smart meters in a mid-sized urban system and the resulting impact on the CO 2 emissions. We also analyse the impact of different subsidies on the adoption and calculate the effectiveness regarding public and private spending on these ...

Where to find a green job?
William Carlos Williams began one of his most famous poems: “So much depends upon a red wheel barrow.” Maybe if he were writing today he’d switch ‘red wheelbarrow’ to ‘green job.’The US is relying on green jobs to push forward economic recovery. Our political leaders promise they are on their way, spurred by $80 billion in stimulus money for efficiency and renewable energy.But what are green ...

Energy waste the size of Japan
Here is a startling fact: US power plants waste more energy than many countries use, including advanced economies like that of Japan. The wasted energy is in the form of heat thrown off when power plants produce electricity. This is one of the points being brought to light by the International District Energy Association (IDEA), as it promotes new federal incentives for heat efficiency. While ...
