Transactive control of a residential community with solar photovoltaic and battery storage systems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Transactive energy is a two-way exchange of energy between the electric power grid and a community's distributed energy resources, offering opportunities for efficiency improvements through market-based economic and control techniques. A community's distributed energy resources include electricity-producing resources and controllable loads. Increased usage of unsynchronized generation of non-dispatchable solar photovoltaic energy and household demand at the community level can adversely affect the power quality, reliability and network balancing of the electricity grid. A solution was developed in this paper in the form of energy storage and demand side management on a solar residential community. An agent-based transactive energy management system was developed and simulated using multiple prosumer houses with roof-top PV systems and local energy storage. Experimental work conducted on an archetype house, near Toronto, Ontario, Canada, was used to model an all-electric residential house and clusters were created with varying orientations and building properties to mimic different efficiency levels of the houses within the virtual community. A machine learning algorithm using historical data and weather forecasts from Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) was used to forecast the community's energy generation as well as building's thermal loads. In this community, consumers can curtail their loads based on price signals sent to smart devices in homes. Open-loop mixed integer linear programming technique (MILP) and model predicted control (MPC) were compared and evaluated. The simulation shows promising results with a 9% energy savings during the summer solstice day and 5% during the winter solstice day when compared to the normal operation of houses' mechanical equipment.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
