Abstract

Demand Side Management (DSM) is growing as an efficient load management technique on the distribution side. Due to uncertainty in grid power supply and rising electricity costs in Bangladesh, industries are looking for alternative solutions in demand management. In this paper, two Demand-Side Management (DSM) techniques; Peak load shifting, and Timeshifting - are investigated for the industrial load in Bangladesh. A demand management model has been developed in MATLAB using industrial load data of a year and electricity price. The model is further analyzed for three base cases and for the scenarios after integrating PV into the system. The results are compared in terms of peak load reduction potential and electricity cost savings of the industry. The combination of peak load shifting, and time-shifting shows the best results of evaluated parameters. The paper concludes that assessed DSM techniques can shift a significant peak load for the industry if customers allow changing their operating schedule of flexible load without affecting the business.
