Conservation voltage reduction (CVR) is widely adopted by utilities for peak demand
reduction and energy savings through reducing the voltage level of the electrical distribution …

Marginal-cost-based dynamic pricing of electricity services, including real power, reactive
power, and reserves, may provide unprecedented efficiencies and system synergies that are …

This paper describes an overview of the optimal energy coordination/management
approaches for microgrids. The article presents the smart grid environment in conjunction …

In recent years, smart grid technologies such as Distribution Management Systems (DMS)
and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) have created remarkable opportunities for …

Conservation voltage reduction (CVR) has been traditionally applied adopting moderate

This paper proposes a new approach for real-time and adaptive Volt/VAr optimization
(VVO)/conservation voltage reduction (CVR) system using Intelligent Agents, communicating …

To meet the requirement from new visions within “smart grid” and to provide solutions for
many challenges that DSOs (Distribution System Operators) are facing today, we need to …

This paper aims to investigate the impact of different Electric Vehicle (EV) penetration on
quasi real-time Volt–VAR Optimization (VVO) of smart distribution networks. Recent VVO …

One of the main concerns of utilities is to minimise voltage variations along their feeders
when they enhance their networks by various distributed generation (DG) systems that have …
