Title: Cost‐worth analytical assessment of demand‐side management (DSM) programs, considering energy losses with the structural generation decomposition: A market‐based approach
Summary
This paper presents an integrated framework for the cost‐worth analytical assessment of demand‐side management (DSM) programs, considering energy losses. This goal is achieved in 3 steps. At first, after solving the market problem, the sensitivity of each line flow to the each load bus is analyzed by using the structural generation decomposition, considering network congestion. Then, the Loss Index is analytically defined by using the sensitivity factors. Finally, the energy loss and the cost variation due to applying DSM programs are analytically decomposed. The energy loss variation is divided up into 2 terms: the energy loss variation at pick hours and off‐pick period. The total cost variation consists of 3 terms: the cost of energy losses, market, and DSM activities. The proposed approach can be used to indicate the appropriate busses and network for applying DSM programs considering the energy losses. The numerical results of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 24‐bus test system demonstrate the efficiency of the method.
