Fundamentals and business model for resource aggregator of demand response in electricity markets

Abstract

Abstract Demand response (DR) is an effective means to help maintain the balance between power supply and demand, promote energy conservation and emission reduction. Nevertheless, the involvement of different flexible resources, including distributed generation (DG), energy storage system (EES) and especially controllable load of customers in DR programs becomes the critical element for the implementation of DR. The resource aggregators (RA), an emerging market participant, serves as the professional integrator of these widely-distributed adjustable resources and offers them convenient access to related market trading information. The participation of RAs plays a significant role in enhancing system flexibility, fully exploiting the potential of flexible resources and bridging the gap between suppliers and buyers of DR. This paper focuses on the fundamentals and business mechanism of RAs in the electricity market. First, a comprehensive review of recent literature and projects is presented, with particular attention on RAs’ roles in electricity markets as well as their difference from other market entities. Then, the business model for RA is analyzed systematically, involving resource aggregation, basic information prediction, market bidding strategy development, and settlement process. Besides, information about existing RAs around the world is collected and compared to understand the development status and existing challenges.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
