Wind power is gaining in significance as an important renewable source of clean energy. However, due to their inherent uncertainty, wind generators are often unable to participate in the forward electricity markets like the more predictable and controllabl ...
We study the effect of energy-storage systems in dynamic real-time electricity markets. We consider that demand and renewable generation are stochastic, that real-time production is affected by ramping constraints, and that market players seek to selfishly ...
Demand Response (DR) has traditionally targeted peak shaving for the optimal allocation of the electricity consumption on a time scale that ranges from minutes to hours. However, with the availability of advanced monitoring and communication infrastructure ...
Modern society is dependent on reliable electricity for security, health, communication, transportation, finance, computers and nearly all aspects of the contemporary life. Providing reliable electricity is a very complex challenge. It involves real-time m ...
Recently, TEES (thermo-electric energy storage) systems have been proposed as a new method for large-scale energy storage wherein electric power is stored as thermal energy by using a heat pump and retrieved from the TES (thermal energy storage) by using a ...
Recent work has suggested reducing electricity generation cost by cutting the peak to average ratio (PAR) without reducing the total amount of the loads. However, most of these proposals rely on consumer's willingness to act. In this paper, we propose an a ...
We study the effect of energy-storage systems in dynamic real-time electricity markets. We consider that demand and renewable generation are stochastic, that real-time production is affected by ramping constraints, and that market players seek to selfishly ...
We investigate the potential for aggregations of residential thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs), such as air conditioners, to arbitrage intraday wholesale electricity market prices via non-disruptive direct load control. Since wholesale electricity p ...
Given the growing number of solar tower power plants in operation, under construction and under planning, the assessment and the optimisation of their performance are required both at the energy level and the economic level. In other words, the same way as ...
This document is the report of my second semester project at IPESE. Its objectives were to validate the energetic strategy 2035 of the “Canton du Valais”. The lecturer will see how the Swiss-Energyscope model has been adapted to the canton of Valais to com ...
