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

As the penetration level of renewable energy sources (RES) increases, the associated
technical challenges in the power systems rise. Enhancing the utilization of energy flexibility …

This paper introduces a linear quadratic control scheme for a continuous-time system with
observations taken at discrete times. Particular attention is given to the derivation of the …

Energy flexibility of a building is really not a new concept. It originates from the demand side
management regime, which for decades has been applied by the designers and operators …

The future energy system is weather-driven. To take full and effective advantage of the
renewable energy production, we need to make the demand flexible, such that it better …

The International Energy Agency (IEA) was established in 1974 within the framework of the
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to implement an …

This paper aims to stimulate a discussion on how to create a bridge between the concept of
flexibility used in power and energy systems and the flexibility that buildings can offer for …

Demand side management is becoming a promising solution to overcome the load
imbalance caused by unpredictable electricity generation from renewable energy systems …

One of the avenues to integrate more renewable energies is to contract flexibility through
managing the energy use of building stocks, through incentives and penalties. There are …
