In this paper, we develop a framework to optimally manage the time-phased deployment planning of a new technology, namely Advanced Metering Infrastructure, in the Utility industry. Advanced Metering Infrastructure enable two-way... more
In the last few years, the reduction of energy consumption and pollution became mandatory. It became also a common goal of many countries. Only in Europe, the building sector is responsible for the total 40% of energy consumption and 36%... more
We have studied a low energy building on a campus of the University of California. It has efficient heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, consisting of a dual-fan/dual-duct variable air volume (VAV) system. As a major... more
Peak energy demand is made of people’s simultaneous activities around the same period of the day. In the past, utilities made a profit out of peak demand, but the integration of renewable sources of energy and changing patterns in demand... more
Negli ultimi anni, l’integrazione di programmi di Demand Side Management è stata relativamente poco diffusa nei mercati energetici europei. Il Demand Side Management può essere definito come un ampio insieme di azioni che possono venire... more
Traffic signals are essential traffic management tools in urban conditions. The design of signals has been an evolving science, driven by the need to make best use of available road space, and changing policy objectives, moving away from... more
These lecture notes were taken during the 2013 installment of the MOOC 'An Introduction to Operations Management' as taught by Prof. Dr. Christian Terwiesch at the Wharton Business School of the University of Pennsylvania via Coursera.org.
Demand side management (DSM) is one of the important functions in a smart grid that allows customers to make informed decisions regarding their energy consumption. It helps the energy providers reduce the peak load demand and reshape the... more
In this work, we address the problem of providing fast and on-line households appliance load detection in a non-intrusive way from aggregate electric energy consumption data. Enabling on-line load detection is a relevant research problem... more
The development smart grids have made the power systems planning and operation more efficient by the application of renewable energy resources, electric vehicles, two-way communication, self-healing, consumer engagement, distribution... more
In this study, a significant literature review on peak load shaving strategies has been presented. The impact of three major strategies for peak load shaving, namely demand side management (DSM), integration of energy storage system... more
In order to coordinate the scheduling problem between an isolated microgrid (IMG) and electric vehicle battery swapping stations (BSSs) in multi-stakeholder scenarios, a new bi-level optimal scheduling model is proposed for promoting the... more
In this work, a novel optimal scheduling approach is proposed for isolated microgrids (MGs) with renewable generations by incorporating demand response of electric vehicles (EVs). First, a bi-level programming-based MG scheduling model is... more
In this paper, we present an energy optimization technique to schedule three types of household appliances (user dependent, interactive schedulable and unschedulable) in response to the dynamic behaviours of customers, electricity prices... more
This article explores the current picture of Slovakia’s and the Czech Republic’s domestic energy market, the national reality concerning decentralization efforts as well as their suitability to achieve it. It assesses the current... more
—In this work, we evaluate performance of home energy management system(HEM) by using three meta-heuristic optimization techniques: Harmony search algorithm (HSA), Bacterial foraging optimization (BFO) and Enhanced deferential... more
The changing landscape of the European energy system is fundamentally challenging the role of Distribution System Operators (DSOs). While drastic reforms are not warranted, national and European policy-makers should consider a number of... more
