IMPROVEMENT OF METHODICAL AND INSTRUMENTAL SUPPORT FOR DEMAND SIDE MANAGEMENT IN THE LIBERALIZED ELECTRICITY MARKETS

Abstract

Global decarbonisation and widespread use of alternative and renewable energy sources aims to shortage the fossil fuel using and reduce the harmful impact on the environment within the framework of the sustainable development paradigm. At the same time, wide integration into the power network of unmanaged generating units based on renewable energy sources in the absence of a sufficient number of electric energy storage units of the required capacity in conditions of unpredictability and instability of production may lead to the inability to provide reliable coverage of the consumers power load, which requires the use of alternative ways of balancing the power system. Under such conditions, the coordination of electric power (electricity) demand and supply for should be carried out exclusively by demand-side management in real time or near real time. That is why the improvement of methodological and instrumental provision of demand-side management tasks today is one of the most important components of the effectiveness of the "green" transition. To achieve the goal, the article analyzed the existing DSM-methods, performed an analysis of the requirements of national regulatory documents for DSM and service provision in the liberalized electricity market of Ukraine, described an improved ideal norm method and a modernized toolkit for demand-side management, as well as a reliable budgetary technical solution for the formation of information support for DSM in the retail electricity market is proposed, which together with dynamic pricing and the introduction of real-time tariffs will contribute to ensuring economic regimes of operation of the IPS and high-quality power supply to consumers.
