Analyzing technical and economical aspects of running emergency demand response programs in smart grids

This paper explores the impact of smart grid on implementation of emergency demand response programs (EDRPs). In this regard, the power model of EDRP with consideration of incentive rate for customers who respond to reducing their loads is developed. The methodology is demonstrated through case study simulated on Iranian power system. The impact of smart grid on EDRP programs is discussed and it is shown that EDRP programs would be executed more effectively in a smart grid.
