Network-Aware and Welfare-Maximizing Dynamic Pricing for Energy Sharing

no code implementations3 Apr 2024 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Guido Cavraro, Andrey Bernstein, Lang Tong

The proliferation of behind-the-meter (BTM) distributed energy resources (DER) within the electrical distribution network presents significant supply and demand flexibilities, but also introduces operational challenges such as voltage spikes and reverse power flows.

A Decentralized Market Mechanism for Energy Communities under Operating Envelopes

no code implementations27 Feb 2024 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Guido Cavraro, Andrey Bernstein, Lang Tong

We propose an operating envelopes (OEs) aware energy community market mechanism that dynamically charges/rewards its members based on two-part pricing.

Operating-Envelopes-Aware Decentralized Welfare Maximization for Energy Communities

no code implementations11 Oct 2023 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Guido Cavraro, Andrey Bernstein, Lang Tong

We propose an operating-envelope-aware, prosumer-centric, and efficient energy community that aggregates individual and shared community distributed energy resources and transacts with a regulated distribution system operator (DSO) under a generalized net energy metering tariff design.

Wholesale Market Participation of DERA: Competitive DER Aggregation

no code implementations5 Jul 2023 Cong Chen, Ahmed S. Alahmed, Timothy D. Mount, Lang Tong

We consider the aggregation of distributed energy resources (DERs) by a profit-seeking DER aggregator (DERA), participating directly in the wholesale electricity market.

Dynamic Net Metering for Energy Communities

no code implementations21 Jun 2023 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Lang Tong

We propose a social welfare maximizing market mechanism for an energy community that aggregates individual and community-shared energy resources under a general net energy metering (NEM) policy.

Co-optimizing Behind-The-Meter Resources under Net Metering

no code implementations6 Dec 2022 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Lang Tong

We consider the problem of co-optimizing behind-the-meter (BTM) storage and flexible demands with BTM stochastic renewable generation.

Achieving Social Optimality for Energy Communities via Dynamic NEM Pricing

no code implementations17 Nov 2022 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Lang Tong

We further show that Dynamic NEM aligns the individual member's incentive with that of the overall community; each member optimizing individual surplus under Dynamic NEM results in maximum community's social welfare.

Co-Optimizing Distributed Energy Resources in Linear Complexity under Net Energy Metering

no code implementations21 Aug 2022 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Lang Tong, Qing Zhao

The co-optimization of behind-the-meter distributed energy resources is considered for prosumers under the net energy metering tariff.

Competitive DER Aggregation for Participation in Wholesale Markets

no code implementations1 Jul 2022 Cong Chen, Ahmed S. Alahmed, Timothy D. Mount, Lang Tong

Also obtained are DERA's bid and offer curves for its participation in the wholesale energy market and the optimal schedule of behind-the-meter resources.

Integrating Distributed Energy Resources: Optimal Prosumer Decisions and Impacts of Net Metering Tariffs

no code implementations12 Apr 2022 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Lang Tong

The rapid growth of the behind-the-meter (BTM) distributed generation has led to initiatives to reform the net energy metering (NEM) policies to address pressing concerns of rising electricity bills, fairness of cost allocation, and the long-term growth of distributed energy resources.

On Net Energy Metering X: Optimal Prosumer Decisions, Social Welfare, and Cross-Subsidies

no code implementations21 Sep 2021 Ahmed S. Alahmed, Lang Tong

We introduce NEM X, an inclusive retail tariff model that captures features of existing net energy metering (NEM) policies.
