    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for electric vehicle charger with load shedding. One embodiment provides a method of load shedding including receiving, at an electronic processor of an EV charger, an indication of an amount of current flowing through a main switchboard connected to the EV charger and determining, with the electronic processor, whether the amount of current exceeds a predetermined threshold. The method also includes reducing, using the electronic processor, a charge rating of the EV charger when the amount of current exceeds the predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: A method for controlling electrical power usage by at least one power consuming device connected—via a telecommunications network—to at least one electrical power generating and/or storing component includes: in a first step, an electrical power consumption profile information is transmitted to or accessed by an electrical power management entity, the electrical power consumption profile information being related to the at least one power consuming device or to a mode of operation thereof; and in a second step, subsequent to the first step, a first electrical power control information and/or a second electrical power control information is transmitted, by the electrical power management entity, to the at least one power consuming device, the first electrical power control information indicating to activate a power consumption mode of operation corresponding to the electrical power consumption profile information transmitted to or accessed by the electrical power management entity.

    Abstract: An incentive-based demand response (DR) method and system are provided from the view of a grid operator (GO) to enable system-level dispatch of DR resources. The method spans three hierarchical levels of a GO, multiple service providers (SPs), and corresponding customers. The GO first posts an incentive to SPs, who will then invoke sub-programs with enrolled customers to negotiate quantities of demand reduction via providing SP incentives. In view of the hierarchical decision-making structure, a two-loop Stackelberg game is proposed to capture interactions between different actors. The existence of a unique Stackelberg equilibrium that provides optimal system solutions is demonstrated. Simulation results show that the proposed method is effective in helping compensate system resource deficiency at minimum cost.
