Industrial Load Modeling and Optimization for Market-Based Interaction with Power Systems
Ruike Lyu
Industrial loads account for over 60% of China's electricity consumption and can provide substantial flexibility for renewable-dominated power systems. Their market participation r…
Do We Still Need Demand Flexibility as Batteries Become Cheaper? A Levelized Cost Perspective
Ruike Lyu, Tengmu Li
Energy storage and flexible loads both help balance power systems with high shares of variable renewables, but they do so differently. A battery moves electricity from one period t…
Translation-Symmetric Market: Enabling Incentive Compatibility For DER Aggregation
Ruike Lyu, Chuyi Li, Kedi Zheng +3
Virtual power plants (VPPs) are important for coordinating the rapidly growing portfolios of distributed energy resources (DERs) and enabling them to deliver multiple services to h…
Industrial overcapacity can enable seasonal flexibility in electricity use
Ruike Lyu, Anna Li, Jianxiao Wang +6
In many countries, declining demand in energy-intensive industries (EIIs) such as cement, steel, and aluminum is leading to industrial overcapacity. Although industrial overcapacit…
Learning for Feasible Region on Coal Mine Virtual Power Plants with Imperfect Information
Hongxu Huang, Ruike Lyu, Cheng Feng +4
The feasible region assessment (FRA) in industrial virtual power plants (VPPs) is driven by the need to activate large-scale latent industrial loads for demand response, making it…
