4. Energy efficiency, demand management and load control
The deployment of smart grids requires a profound change in everyone's roles. In particular, the European Energy Efficiency Directive requires energy suppliers to commit to reducing their customers' consumption by 1.5% per year. However, achieving this objective depends on their active participation. Consumers, who are increasingly called upon in this new situation, become "consom'acteur", i.e. both energy consumers and major players in MDE, which aims to control load through active equipment management.
4.1 Network load control and active equipment management
Achieving energy efficiency targets depends on the implementation of technologies and control centers that can manage energy flows in real time. The information supplied to these centers by protection and...
