Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal scheduling of a renewable micro-grid in an isolated load area using mixed-integer linear programming
TL;DR: In this article, the optimal operation of a wind turbine, a solar unit, a fuel cell and a storage battery is searched by a mixed-integer linear programming implemented in General Algebraic Modeling Systems (GAMS).
Journal ArticleDOI
An electric energy consumer characterization framework based on data mining techniques
TL;DR: This paper presents an electricity consumer characterization framework based on a knowledge discovery in databases (KDD) procedure, supported by data mining techniques, applied on the different stages of the process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Demand response in electrical energy supply: An optimal real time pricing approach
Pedro Faria,Zita Vale +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present DemSi, a demand response simulator that allows studying demand response actions and schemes in distribution networks, and the use of DemSi by a retailer in a situation of energy shortage, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Local Energy Markets: Paving the Path Toward Fully Transactive Energy Systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate a fully integrated transactive system by modeling the energy resource management problem of a microgrid under uncertainty considering flexible loads and market participation, and coupling these elements into an integrated trans-active energy simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
MASCEM: a multiagent system that simulates competitive electricity markets
TL;DR: MASCEM, a multiagent simulator system, is a valuable framework for evaluating new rules, new behavior, and new participants in the numerous electricity markets that are moving toward liberalization and competition.
