The increasing demand for electricity and the emergence of smart grids have presented new
opportunities for home energy management systems (HEMS) in demand response markets …

Building operations rely heavily on control systems and sensors. This paper provides a
sophisticated literature review on sensor systems in building/HVAC systems, particularly in …

Transactive control is a type of distributed control strategy that uses market mechanisms to
engage self-interested responsive loads to achieve power balance in the electrical power …

Power imbalances from fluctuating renewable electricity generators are counteracted by
often expensive flexibility services. Heating, cooling, and air-conditioning (HVAC) of …

The management of demand-side flexibility plays a key role in reliable integration of
intermittent renewable energy sources into residential microgrids. Residential microgrid is a …

Abstract Active Demand Response (ADR) can contribute to a more cost-efficient operation
of, and investment in, the electric power system as it may provide the needed flexibility to …

In the face of unprecedented challenges of upcoming fossil fuel shortage and reliability and
