Advanced Demand Side Management for the Future Smart Grid Using Mechanism Design

摘要: In the future smart grid, both users and power companies can potentially benefit from economical environmental advantages of pricing methods to more effectively reflect fluctuations wholesale price into customer side. addition, be used seek social benefits implement objectives. To achieve objectives, utility company may need collect various information about their energy consumption behavior, which challenging. this paper, we propose an efficient method tackle problem. We assume that each user is equipped with controller (ECC) as part its meter. All meters are connected not only grid but also a communication infrastructure. This allows two-way among company. analytically model user's preferences patterns in form function. Based on model, Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism aims maximize welfare, i.e., aggregate functions all minus total cost. Our design requires provides some demand. return, provider will determine electricity bill payment. Finally, verify important properties our proposed VCG for demand side management such efficiency, truthfulness, nonnegative transfer. Simulation results confirm companies.
