CLNR Trial Analysis: I&C Demand Side Response + GUS Voltage Control
Overview
The application of demand side response (DSR) can yield numerous network benefits, such as reduction of the generation margin and improvements to the investment and operational efficiencies of both transmission and distribution systems. DSR has also be used to solve distribution network voltage problems.
This report describes the results of demand side response (DSR) trials carried out with a test group of 6 large industrial and commercial (I & C) customers located throughout the Northern Powergrid region which were called as part of Customer-Led Network Revolution (CLNR) project. The results of a selection of these trials are applied in simulation to the CLNR rural test network at Denwick, and used to draw conclusions of relevance to the UK as a whole.
