Existing grids have been designed with traditional large centralized generation in mind;
however, with the ever-increasing utilization of renewable distributed energy resources, the …

Aggregation of distributed generations (DGs) along with energy storage systems (ESSs) and
controllable loads near power consumers has led to the concept of microgrids. However, the …

Governmental incentives to develop clean and renewable energy sources, and concerns
about the increasingly serious environmental pollution problem, and the development of …

The return on investment for a microgrid can be accelerated if the microgrid can maximize its
profits, either by minimizing the cost of energy production or maximizing the revenue from …

The charging loads of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) within a network of charging stations
(CSs) are not uniformly distributed. The load distribution is skewed toward the stations …

The transition from traditional fuel-dependent energy systems to renewable energy-based
systems has been extensively embraced worldwide. Demand-side flexibility is essential to …

Incentive-based demand response (DR) program can induce end users (EUs) to reduce
electricity demand during peak period through rewards. In this study, an incentive-based DR …

Incentive-based demand response is playing an increasingly important role in ensuring the
safe operation of the power grid and reducing system costs, and advances in information …

As fossil fuels dry up and the proportion of renewable energy increases, multi-energy system
(MES) becomes an effective way to realize renewable energy accommodation. High …

Demand response is becoming increasingly important due to the high penetration of
intermittent and variable renewable energy and electric vehicles in power systems. Real …
