Abstract From the perspective of a community energy operator, a two-stage optimal scheduling model of a community integrated energy system is proposed by integrating information on controllable loads. The day-ahead scheduling analyzes whether various controllable loads participate in the optimization and investigates the impact of their responses on the operating economy of the community integrated energy system (IES) before and after; the intra-day scheduling proposes a two-stage rolling optimization model based on the day-ahead scheduling scheme, taking into account the fluctuation of wind turbine output and load within a short period of time and according to the different response rates of… More >

Abstract The two-way interaction between smart grid and customers will continuously play an important role in enhancing the overall efficiency of the green and low-carbon electric power industry and properly accommodating intermittent renewable energy resources. Thus far, the existing electricity pricing mechanisms hardly match the technical properties of smart grid; neither can they facilitate increasing end users participating in the electricity market. In this paper, several relevant models and novel methods are proposed for pricing scheme design as well as to achieve optimal decision-makings for market participants, in which the mechanisms behind are compatible with demand response operation of end users… More >
