Description There has been considerable interest in developing demand side management for domestic suppliers, put simply, enable power suppliers to determine when you might switch on and off your domestic appliances to ensure that the smart grid can deliver energy more efficiently. Our work analysed exactly how you might determine the benefits in an objective manner by determining the improvements in electrical power that might accrue.
Exploitation Route These have been taken forward in a subsequent EU grant exploring the use of smart grid technologies
