Stability of a Stochastic Model for Demand-Response

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Dan-Cristian Tomozei

We study the stability of a Markovian model of electricity production and consumption that incorporates production volatility due to renewables and uncertainty about actual demand versus planned production. We assume that the energy producer targets a fixe ...

Energetic Macroscopic Representation of a Hybrid Elevator – Considerations on Strategies for Energy Management

Alfred Rufer, Philippe Barrade

Accumulators are inserted on the DC bus of a conventional elevator, to increase its efficiency and limit the power demand on the main feeding grid. In the process that enable the identification of the control of such a system, The Energetic Macroscopic Rep ...
