Abstract
PJSC “Rosseti” is forced to find new ways of getting additional income. It’s caused by the insufficient financing of network. But a lot of known and supported by network organizations initiatives are leading to the increase of network component in electricity cost for consumers. By the way the new subject, called demand side response aggregator in the UPS, is appeared in power engineering. This problem can be partially solved by the large regional network companies in case of them being an aggregator. At the same time, the efficiency of the aggregator function increases in case of using local power systems as a subject of the retail market as a regulatory resource. It’ll let to avoid the decrease of the power consumption and transmitted power volume, to increase the reliability and the quality of power supply due to reduce of power losses in network. It’s obvious, that the appropriate automation is needed as an element of the digital transformation of the electric network.
Highlights
The implementation of functions related to the power supply to the terminal consumers was the main source of income for network organizations up to this day:
The performance of aggregator functions by regional electric network companies may be accompanied by the extraction of significant technical and economic effects
It should be noted that only the integration of the island local power system allows it to acquire the status of a retail market entity operating in the professional consumer mode, as a producer-consumer of electricity
Summary
The containment of these network initiatives is an attempt to protect industry, communal services and public sector employees, and to force the network monopoly to increase its own efficiency, primarily due to the digital transformation of the industry. It’s obvious that the PJSC Rosseti got obligations to carry out the digital transformation of the network due to the “Digital Transformation” concept adoption in 2018. These obligations for sure require additional funds. Any subject of power engineering, including regional electric network companies, can perform its functions according to the [2]. The performance of aggregator functions by regional electric network companies may be accompanied by the extraction of significant technical and economic effects. The amount of these effects may be enough for the digital transformation
