Bidding strategy in energy and spinning reserve markets for aluminum smelters' demand response
@article{Zhang2015BiddingSI, title={Bidding strategy in energy and spinning reserve markets for aluminum smelters' demand response}, author={Xiao Zhang and Gabriela Hug}, journal={2015 IEEE Power \& Energy Society Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Conference (ISGT)}, year={2015}, pages={1-5} }
Aluminum smelting is an energy-intensive electrolytic process that is widely used to produce aluminum. The electricity cost thereby constitutes a significant portion of the total operation cost. At the same time, the smelting process is able to change its power consumption both accurately and quickly by controlling the pots' DC voltage, without affecting the production quality. Hence, an aluminum smelter has both the motivation and the ability to participate in demand-side management. By…
