Active and anticipatory demand-side-management in households

A high density of Photovoltaic generation can lead to problems in low voltage grids. This paper addresses the problem by actively and anticipatory using the load shifting and load influencing potentials in households. The goal is to achieve a local generation/load balance. To analyse the potential in Austrian households, a model settlement is generated, which represents Austria as a small village. For each device in these households an uninfluenced load profile is generated. Also the limits of load shifting are described.
