Title: | Time of Use Period Determination for Residential Customers in Peninsular Malaysia: A Case Study | Authors: | Nurhidayah Khamis C S Tan |
Issue Date: | Jul-2019 | Conference: | 5Th International Conference On Energy and Environment 2019 | Abstract: | . Time of Use (TOU) is basically one of the demand response programs that encourage end-user customers to change their electricity usage in response with the changes in the price of electricity over a period of time with an incentive. Generally, Time-of-Use implementation is to reduce the system’s maximum demand by transferring some of the demand into different hours. Time-of-Use also is a cost reflective electricity pricing scheme in which days are commonly split into two or three time periods such as peak, mid-peak and off-peak. The residential sector is expected to have the largest volume growth as there will be an increasing population, urbanization and rising living standards that can increase the number of households and the energy demand per household which allows the households and individuals to purchase more electrical appliances. This paper presented a new clustering method called Jenks Natural Breaks to determine the Time of Use period for the residential customers in Peninsular Malaysia. A comparison of KMeans clustering method and the proposed Jenks Natural Breaks method is presented in this paper. These two methods are carried out on the average of six actual residential customers load profile. In this paper, two-part periods (zones) TOU are used for analysis and discussions. The results indicate that the time of use Peak period using the K-Means clustering method is between 10.00am and 8.00pm while for a new proposed Jenks Natural Breaks method the time of use Peak period is between 9.00am and 8.00pm. | URI: | http://dspace.uniten.edu.my/jspui/handle/123456789/15154 |
