An Occupant-Based Dynamic Simulation Tool For Predicting Residential Power Demand And Quantifying The Impact Of Residential Demand Response, Brandon Jeffrey Johnson

Masters Theses

With their large impact on the power system and widespread distribution, residential loads provide vast resources that if utilized correctly have the potential to help reduce both electricity cost and demand throughout the day. Previous research in this area has been primarily focused on building more energy efficient homes and improving the efficiencies of appliances and lighting technologies. Far less attention has been given to the ability of residential loads to provide various demand response services. Residential loads with demand response capabilities have the potential to be very useful in both peak shifting and regulation applications, and could be utilized …
