Minimizing Risk of Load Shedding and Renewable Energy Curtailment in a Microgrid with Energy Storage
Ashkan Zeinalzadeh, Vijay Gupta
We consider a microgrid with random load realization, stochastic renewable energy production, and an energy storage unit. The grid controller provides the total net load trajectory…
Pricing Energy in the Presence of Renewables
Ashkan Zeinalzadeh, Indraneel Chakraborty, Vijay Gupta
At present, electricity markets largely ignore the fact that renewable power producers impose significant externalities on non-renewable energy producers. This is because consumers…
A Contract Design Approach for Phantom Demand Response
Donya Ghavidel Dobakhshari, Vijay Gupta
We design an optimal contract between a demand response aggregator (DRA) and power grid customers for incentive-based demand response. We consider a setting in which the customers…
A Reputation-Based Contract for Repeated Crowdsensing with Costly Verification
Donya G. Dobakhshari, Parinaz Naghizadeh, Mingyan Liu +1
We study a setup in which a system operator hires a sensor to exert costly effort to collect accurate measurements of a value of interest over time. At each time, the sensor is ask…
Incentivizing Truth-Telling in MPC-based Load Frequency Control
Takashi Tanaka, Vijay Gupta
We present a mechanism for socially efficient implementation of model predictive control (MPC) algorithms for load frequency control (LFC) in the presence of self-interested power…
