Demand response provides many benefits in financial and operational aspects for the power user, load management unit and the grid operator. In this paper, we have extended the traditional specification in distribution system automation IEC 61968 to support further demand response service. There are some basic modules and packets have been defined to update traditional metering device, and also the newly added controlled object have been involved. At last, we have take time of use price to illustrate the performance of a wide area demand system by integrating a new controlling algorithm and the results show that it can significantly improve the performance of electricity devices in a home area network.

Demand Response program is applied in many countries as an effective instrument to regulate the electricity consumption. In this program, time of use (TOU) tariff is used widely. Optimal TOU pricing according to different objectives was mentioned in this paper such as peak load reduction, improving load curve, energy conservation, avoiding a new peak load. This is a problem with multiobjective functions in different unit of measurement and is solved by PSO algorithm. An example to find optimal TOU tariff for one utility is also presented in this paper.

The optimal planning of grid-connected microgrids (MGs) has been extensively studied in recent years. While most of the previous studies have used fixed or time-of-use (TOU) prices for the optimal sizing of MGs, this work introduces real-time pricing (RTP) for implementing a demand response (DR) program according to the national grid prices of Iran. In addition to the long-term planning of MG, the day-ahead operation of MG is also analyzed to get a better understanding of the DR program for daily electricity dispatch. For this purpose, four different days corresponding to the four seasons are selected for further analysis. In addition, various impacts of the proposed DR program on the MG planning results, including sizing and best configuration, net present cost (NPC) and cost of energy (COE), and emission generation by the utility grid, are investigated. The optimization results show that the implementation of the DR program has a positive impact on the technical, economic, and environmental aspects of MG. The NPC and COE are reduced by about USD 3700 and USD 0.0025/kWh, respectively. The component size is also reduced, resulting in a reduction in the initial cost. Carbon emissions are also reduced by 185 kg/year.
