Estimation of potential demand reduction by commercial air conditioner control considering outdoor air temperature
Demand response is expected to help maintain the supply and demand balance of the power system. In Japan, various demonstration projects have been carried out to evaluate the effect of demand reduction. Commercial air conditioners are a promising responsive load for demand response because they acco...
