AU - khalili, mohammad TI - A model for consumer bidding considering its role in demand side management and micro-grids operation PT - JOURNAL ARTICLE TA - ieijqp JN - ieijqp VO - 1 VI - 2 IP - 2 4099 - http://ieijqp.ir/article-1-60-en.html 4100 - http://ieijqp.ir/article-1-60-en.pdf SO - ieijqp 2 ABĀ  - By changing the method of power system operation from centralized to decentralized control due to the development of smart grids and micro-grids, the using of ability of consumers for demand management has attracted much attention. Due to presence of different loads in feeding priority, consumers can help the micro-grid operator for better operation and supply the critical loads. This can be done by offering the amount of shifable and curtailable load in different price values so, each consumer can determine the load priority for own demand in each period of time. Demand response programs have become one of the most effective methods to improve the demand profile and reduce the energy supply costs. In this paper, a new model for demand side bidding considering load priorities has been proposed. The results show the model is indeed capable of obtaining better demand side management.
