Distributed energy resource system optimisation using mixed integer linear programming

Omu, Akomeno; Choudhary, Ruchi; Boies, Adam - In: Energy Policy 61 (2013) C, pp. 249-266

In this study a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model is created for the design (i.e. technology selection, unit sizing, unit location, and distribution network structure) of a distributed energy system that meets the electricity and heating demands of a cluster of commercial and...

Social implications of residential demand response in cool temperate climates

Darby, Sarah J.; McKenna, Eoghan - In: Energy Policy 49 (2012) C, pp. 759-769

Residential electrical demand response (DR) offers the prospect of reducing the environmental impact of electricity use, and also the supply costs. However, the relatively small loads and numerous actors imply a large effort: response ratio. Residential DR may be an essential part of future...
