Distributed Electrical Systems – the emergence of demand response
Introduction
Background
National Electricity Market
Distributed Generation
Renewables / Cogeneration
Microgrids / robustness / resilliance
Regulatory - AS 4777
Problem Features
Agents as social proxies
time scales – transient vs long term
network is both electrical and economic
lossy
sources & sinks
Distributed Electrical Systems – the emergence of demand response
Demand Management
Networks are increasingly constrained – particularly with widespread deployment of HVAC systems.
NOT exogenous disturbances – these are highly correlated with weather data – everyone wants AC on a hot day.
Traditional approach of peaking plants/ network augmentation yields low capacity factors
Can a response from within the network provide
a better solution?
Distributed Electrical Systems – the emergence of demand response
Challenges
How do we design agents that reacts individually on behalf of a consumer, but collectively on behalf of all consumers?
Particular focus is on:
Learning to cooperate
Adaption to changes in network structure
The value of information / cost of communication
Decentralised control and robustness
Near optimal convergence with limited information

Conclusions
Distributed Generation is happening
Cogeneration / Renewables
DG has the potential to provide increased functionality and robustness to the electrical network.
There are a number of complex problems that need to be addressed before this potential is realised
Learning to cooperate
Adaption to changes in network structure
The value of information / cost of communication
Decentralised control and robustness
Near optimal convergence with limited information
