Nadia Oudjane (EDF R&D) Distributed control of flexible loads by mean-field inversion

Abstract: With the emergence of fluctuating renewable electricity sources, the need for flexibilities both on the generation side and on the demand side becomes crucial to ensure power systems reliability. In this context, flexible loads such as thermostatic loads (water-heaters, fridges, heating, cooling, etc) or electric vehicle charging can be viewed as virtual storage opportunities that could contribute to the balance of the sytem. One major technical issue is then to design a process allowing Read more [...]
