SUBSCRIBED POWER – TESTING NEW POWER BASED NETWORK TARIFFS STIMULATING FOR DEMAND RESPONSE

This paper describes results from the national research and demonstration project DeVID (Demonstration and Verification of Intelligent Distribution Grids) in Norway. The project aims at demonstrating new smart grid technologies and methods for distribution networks, including how Demand Response can be realized through economic incentives, technologies and a new network tariff called "Subscribed power". Results from the testing of the network tariff "subscribed power" at household customers in two different locations in Norway are described in this paper.
