A systematic approach towards developing prototype of AMI based DSM model for load management

Participating in demand response has significant advantages for both consumers and electricity producers, i.e., saving on high electricity prices for the user and helping utilities in peak load curtailment. Further increased the use of renewable energy and energy storage, along with the need to increase energy efficiency are the main driver for the implementation and utilization of DSM. In DSM to monitor and control of the low voltage power grid, a computer system (a combination of hardware and software) is provided which is advance controlled by SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) System. Next generation application and DSM concept are important with smart grid to give the answer to the need of the changing power system. This research paper insights the development of advanced metering infrastructure based demand side management model for load Management. The main objective of this application is consumption optimization and automation in operation. This paper proposes a fixed load control strategy with fixed forecasted photo voltaic generation, battery storage system and priority based load curtailment mechanism.
