In recent years, smart cities have emerged with energy conservation systems for managing
energy in cities as well as buildings. Although many studies on energy conservation systems …

During recent years, with the advent of restructuring in power systems as well as the
increase of electricity demand and global fuel energy prices, challenges related to …

Restructuring of power systems along with the integration of renewable energy resources in
electricity networks have transformed traditional distribution networks (DNs) into new active …

It is expected that distribution power systems will soon be able to connect a variety of
microgrids from residential, commercial, and industrial users, and thus integrate a variety of …

This paper considers the time of use (TOU) pricing scheme to propose a consumer aware
pricing policy (CAPP), where each customer receives a separate electricity pricing signal …

Penetration of wind units in Microgrid (MG) imposes remarkable challenges on MG
operation. Demand Response Programs (DRPs) and Energy Storage Units are used by MG …

In recent years, demand response programs have attracted attentions for reducing network
peak. Demand Response (DR) is the variation of energy consumption by customers in …

In contrast to most contemporary literature on demand-side management (DSM) in
microgrids (MG), which often neglects the granularity of the load importance degree prior to …

Demand side management (DSM) presents an effective tool to regulate customers' energy
consumption. However, DSM requires customer-utility interaction based on fine-grained …

Recently, various distributed energy resources are significantly integrated into the modern
power systems. This introduction of distributed energy resource‐rich systems can cause …
