During an emergency due to a shortage of power, a load aggregator (LA) can use the demand response operation system to deploy demand response resources (DRRs) through various demand response (DR) programs. This paper introduces the demand response operation system for a load aggregator to manage various demand response resources in a smart grid environment.

본 논문에서는 기존의 가입자가 직접 전력량을 조절하는 수동수요반응과는 달리 정해진 시간에 자동적으로 전력량 소모를 줄이는 자동수요반응 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템은 SEP 2.0을 기반으로 동작하며 수요반응 관리 프로그램과 수요반응 서버, 수요반응 클라이언트로 구성된다. 수요반응 관리 프로그램은 가입자에게 전력사용현황을 알려주고 관리자에게는 수요반응 이벤트를 생성 및 취소할 수 있게 한다. 수요반응 서버는 수요반응 관리 프로그램에서 수신한 수요반응 이벤트를 SEP 2.0을 통해 수요반응 클라이언트로 전송하고 수요반응 클라이언트가 주기적으로 전송하는 미터링 데이터를 데이터베이스에 저장한다. 그리고 수요반응 클라이언트는 수신한 수요반응 이벤트에서 수요반응 이벤트 시작시간과 지속시간, 감소레벨을 추출한 뒤, 특정 기간 동안 전력소모를 감소시킨다.

This study performed an analysis on power demand reduction effects exhibited by demand response programs, which are advanced from traditional demand-side management programs, in the smart grid environment. The target demand response systems for the analysis included incentive-based load control systems (2 month-ahead demand control system, 1~5 days ahead demand control system, and demand bidding system), which are currently implemented in Korea, and price-based demand response systems (mainly critical peak pricing system or real-time pricing system, currently not implemented, but representative demand response systems). Firstly, the status of the above systems at home and abroad was briefly examined. Next, energy saving effects and peak demand reduction effects of implementing the critical peak or real-time pricing systems, which are price-based demand response systems, and the existing incentive-based load control systems were estimated.

With the shift of the energy paradigm from supply side management to demand side management, demand resource management and demand response plays an important role in the energy industry. As a consequency, a lot of researches have been done to provide a suitable demand response system. However, most of the demand response systems are based on the propriety products that cannot be modified. In this paper, we are proposing an automated demand response system using an EnerNOC provided open source code. We implemented the demand response server (VTN) and demand response client (VEN), and validated the OpenADR2.0 compliances using the open source code. We also used an Arduino microcontoller to demonstrate the communication schemes to control various devices.

This paper proposes the registration information, the participation information for classifying demand resources participate in demand response program. Modeling demand resources from them, it evaluates values of demand resources. Specially assuming that ignore the loss in power system, they take a role as generation. This paper proposes how to evaluate demand resources' values. Case study shows that demand response operators schedule efficiently demand response program by using index of such as the registration information the participation information of demand resource.

The purpose of Demand Response is to reduce the cost of excessive resources and equipment by spontaneous load reductions at peak loads. Having enough power consumers participating in these schemes is key to achieving the goal. Demand Response Aggregator (DRA) is responsible for recruiting demand resources and managing them to participate in reducing the load. DRAs change the price elasticity of demand functions by providing incentives to demand response, thereby affecting price formation in the electricity market. In this paper, this process is modeled to analyze the relationship between DRA's strategic bidding and market outcomes and load reductions. It analyzes the results by applying to competition between DRAs, competition between DR and Gencos, and coexistence of DR load and non-DR load. It is noteworthy that we have found a phenomenon called the Balloon Effect.

This paper presents a new approach of a evaluation of location marginal prices(LMPs) considering demand response resources in the competitive electricity market. The stabilization of the electric power supply and demand balance has been one of the major important activities in electric power industry. Recently, much attention is paid to the demand-side resources which are responsive to incentives or time-varying prices and existing power system planning and operation activities are incorporated with the so-called demand response resources. In this paper, we first present an analytical method for calculation of LMPs considering demand response resources and then break down the LMPs into three components. In this study, we assume that Korean power system consists of two major regions, one which is the metropolitan and the other is non-metropolitan region. In the case study, we have considered several LMPs cases with different use of locational demand response resource and we can obtain a locational signal to demand response resources. Also, the economics of demand response resources are evaluated, compared with the increase of transmission line capacity and of generation capacity.

This paper presents an advanced energy saving algorithm in building. It is important to aggregate a various demand side resource which is controllable on demand response environment. Previous demand side algorithm for building is restricted on peak power. In this paper, we suggest duty cycle algorithm for AHU on demand response to reduce the quantity of building power consumption. The test results show that the proposed algorithm is very effective.

Demand Response is a well-known means usually operated by the system operator(SO) or the electricity retailers in order to reduce the peak loads or cut the price in electricity market. KPX(Korea Power eXchange), the SO in Korea has been operating the demand bidding program(or the demand resource market) since it was firstly introduced as the pilot project in 2008. The results has proved to be effective to enhance demand response. This paper describes the basic concepts and the operation results of the program.

건물을 에너지 수요관리 자원으로 활용하기 위해서는 수요 반응에 대응할 수 있는 자동화된 시스템을 필요로 한다. 에너지 수요관리 사업자의 출현으로 이를 뒷받침할 수 있는 건물 에너지 관리 시스템과 수요반응 시스템에 대한 연구 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 아직까지 자동화된 실시간 수요 반응 시스템 도입은 미흡하고 비용도 높다. 본 연구에서는 이를 해소하기 위해 건물을 대상으로 수요 반응 시스템 구축을 위한 OpenADR 프로토콜과 수요 반응에 참여할 수 있는 건물 에너지 관리 시스템을 개발하고 실환경에 적용하여 실증을 수행하였다. OpenADR은 표준 프로토콜로 사업자와 수요자원간의 이벤트 발생과 리포팅을 통해 자동화된 시스템이다. 또한 다양한 제어 시스템이 이용되고 있는 건물을 대상으로 단일화된 제어 시스템 구축을 위해 웹 기반 건물 자동제어 시스템을 개발하여 수요 반응 이벤트 발생 시 부하를 줄일 수 있도록 한다. 개발된 결과물을 건물에 적용하여 동작하는 것을 검증하고 감축량을 측정하여 수요반응 효과를 확인하였다.
