Consumer Participation in Demand Response Programs: Development of a Consumat-Based Toy Model

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Modeling of the smart grid architecture and its subsystems is a basic requirement for the success of these new technologies to address climate change effects. For a comprehensive research especially on effects of demand response systems, the integration of consumers’ decisions and interactions is essential. To model consumer participation in demand response programs this paper introduces an agent-based approach using the Consumat framework. The implementation in NetLogo provides high scalability and flexibility concerning input parameters and can easily interact with other simulation frameworks. It also forms a possible basis for an overall demand response consumer model. As a so-called toy model, simple correlations in this socio-technical scenario can already be explored. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
