A peak-shaving method based on solar thermal power storage
The proposed peak shaving optimization model considers not only the generation resources of two different response speeds but also the two different DR resources and determines each unit combination, generation power, and demand response strategy on different time scales so as to. . become important in the future’s smart grid. The goal of peak shaving is to avoid the installation of capacity to supply the peak load of highly variable loads. In cases where peak load coincide with electricity price peaks, peak shavi g can also provide a reduction of energy cost. This paper. .
