Demand Response (DR) is capable of reducing the need for generation capacity investments in order to ensure system security. We utilise this fact to devise a novel methodology for estimating a load-shifting DR resource's capacity contribution and therefore determining DR's potential for...

Power systems based on renewable energy sources (RES) are characterised by increasingly distributed, volatile and uncertain supply leading to growing requirements for flexibility. In this paper, we explore the role of demand response (DR) as a source of flexibility that is considered to become...

Market power is a dominant feature of many modern electricity markets with an oligopolistic structure, resulting in increased consumer cost. This work investigates how consumers, through demand response (DR), can mitigate against market power. Within DR, our analysis particularly focusses on the...
