Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.

Abstract (eng): Due to high electricity load growth there is requirement of enhancement of power system network capacity.
However, additional capacity requires huge investment.
These investments correspondingly increase cost of electricity on customers.
To sustain in competitive electricity market, high network efficiency is also necessary.
Therefore, there is need to find a way to utilize already kept reserve capacity in the network.
Can Demand Response and Electrical Vehicles, Smart Grid features, be utilized to mitigate the reserve capacity requirement?

To find the potential of DR in mitigating the reserve requirements, analysis is conducted in the thesis.
Network outage cost is calculated considering different load growths without investing into network.
Then decrease in outage cost due to DR in same network is computed.
The difference expresses the required potential of DR.

The results of various case studies show that EVs are not able to decrease reserve requirement of grid mainly because their availability at required time is very low.
DR potential is also not convincing.
Even for low load growth, huge DR resources are required to mitigate the reserve capacity requirement.
Study results can be exercised to delay investment in capacity for low growth after comparing with investment cost required.
Further evaluation of potential of DR along with Distributed Energy Resources (DER) is needed.
