Abstract
Demand side management (DSM) is an important technique for demand response (DR)
system in electrical networks. The DSM techniques traditionally have focused on
minimizing electricity consumption or peak load. More recent work reveals that users
wish to reduce their electricity bills without sacrificing user convenience. Hence,
waiting time has been introduced to reflect the user comfort for the DSM. Residents
usually preferred that finish their work as soon as possible than less waiting time. These
techniques have not taken previous usage pattern consideration, thus have been limited
for use in home appliances. In this paper, we propose a system architecture and an
algorithm for DSM referred to as user-friendly DSM (DSM) using ICT. The DSM is
based on time-varying price information considering the following three-fold factors:
electricity bill, usage pattern, and rebound peak load. Our proposed algorithm is divided
into two steps. In the first step, we formulate the objective function based on electricity
bill and usage pattern, and we minimize the electricity bill and maximize the usage
similarity. Then, as the second step, we apply a load balancing algorithm to avoid
blackout and to minimize rebound peak load. Our algorithm is tested in a real data from
KPTCL and experimental results validate the proposed DSM scheme shifts the
operation to off-peak times and consequently leads to significant electricity
consumption and user satisfaction ratio by using GSM technology.
