Intelligent Control to Enhance Power Smoothing of DERs based Microgrid (IC2PSofMG)

Demand-side management (DSM) refers to the actions taken on the demand-side of energy meters. A broad definition of the DSM should be proposed to include current policy targets for emissions reduction, energy security and affordability. Also, DSM; energy efficiency, demand response, and on-site backup generation and storage. Demand Side Management (DSM) is a new concept that provides a convenient and more efficient option to change the net electricity consumption pattern without much inconvenience to consumers. With the development of control and information technology, the residential community provides a new potential demand-side management asset to distribution facilities to optimize load profiles. In this study, PV system integrated distribution services offer solutions related to consumer DSM to minimize the gap between target and actual load profile. A load deferral DSM model is offered to shift the operation of non-critical consumers from the consumer side battery energy storage (BES) together with the optimal energy distribution model. A centrally controlled DSM strategy is proposed to optimize the runtime and BES bidirectional power flow of non-critical consumers. Considering different scenarios with and without BES and load delay, DSM results are compared with the original DSM-free situation. It has been observed that in the presence of PVs and battery storage, the DSM strategy can significantly reduce the total variance of the actual load curve from the estimated load curve. Much of the focus of previous research has been on DSM technological experimentation and modeling work rather than DSM policy, and the article contributes to filling this gap.
