Abstract
This paper investigates the feasibility of demand side management (DSM) services as an alternative to grid reinforcements in the long-term planning of low voltage (LV) distribution networks. For this purpose, a market based approach for DSM is used and three alternative market based strategies are considered. The distribution system operator (DSO) can procure flexibility differently in each strategy. Hierarchical Multi-Agent System (MAS) is used as the modeling approach for the network and the entities included. The market strategies are applied to existing Dutch LV network for several future load scenarios.
