The robustness of smart grids is challenged by unpredictable power peaks or temporal demand oscillations that can cause blackouts and increase supply costs. Planning of demand can mitigate these effects and increase robustness. However, the impact on consu ...

Demand response (DR) is a Smart Grid application that aims at managing consumption of electricity in response to supply-side signals. The exchange of sensitive information (i.e., electricity consumption data) between the consumers and the DR provider is ne ...
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 ...
The recent development of smart meters has allowed the analysis of household electricity consumption in real time. Predicting electricity consumption at such very low scales should help to increase the efficiency of distribution networks and energy pricing ...
