Abstract

With a considerable shift tow ard integrated generation within the electrical distribution network, a Distributed Energy Resource Management System (DERMS) is a solution that can integrate the two-way interactions between the network and the end users. A DERMS solution will assist in modernizing the electric distribution system that should be safe, reliable, and affordable. In this paper we examine the reason peak demand adversely affects the grid and explain how both the customer and utility can benefit from our solution. Once background knowledge and context have been established, then the proposed DERMS design is introduced as a viable solution that can integrate seamlessly into the grid. Additionally, we analyze the technological, regulatory, environmental, and economic implications of the solution to demonstrate its effectiveness in mitigating peak demand issues.
