Errors in forecasting load and renewable-based generation in restructured power systems
mean that independent system operators (ISOs) must procure sufficient operating reserves …

Increasing peaks from high-power loads such as EVs and heat pumps lead to congestion of
electric distribution grids. The inherent flexibility of these loads could be used to resolve …

Dynamic electricity retail tariffs and different grid charge designs are discussed as key
measures to support renewable energy integration. This article investigates the interplay …

Electrification of energy end-uses brings an increasing load on electric distribution grids with
load peaks that can cause network congestion. However, many new end-uses like electric …

In this paper, five of the main design challenges of local flexibility markets (LFMs) for
congestion management are identified and discussed based on desirable market properties …

Local Energy Markets (LEMs) were recently proposed as a measure to coordinate an
increasing amount of distributed energy resources on a distribution grid level. A variety of …

Motivating pumped hydro storage stations (PHSs) to provide capacity support can effectively
improve renewable energy utilisation in integrated renewable energy systems (IRESs) …

This paper investigates volumetric grid tariff designs considering different pricing
mechanisms and resulting in cost-allocative impacts across socio-techno-economic …

In man-made energy systems like the electricity system, new concepts have the potential to
influence and shape the development of the system. Sometimes the influence leads to a …

This paper proposes a multi-level segmented tariff to encourage consumers to provide
demand response using a battery. The aim of the tariff is to (i) properly reflect consumers' …
