Abstract
Technical constraints and flexibility management in
smart grids are analyzed using a market based approach.
Flexibility services may allow network operators to tackle grid
constraints in all timescales, maintaining reliability and quality
of service and maximizing integration of distributed energy
resources. Here, only short term markets will be considered;
consumer and DER flexibility will be used in order to solve the
distribution grid constraints (line/transformer overloads or
voltage limit violations) in the day-ahead framework. The main
contribution of the paper is a proposal of congestion
management in smart grids consistent with the wholesale
electricity market already in use. The role of the new actors will
be highlighted to remark the consequences of regulatory
decisions to be taken in the next future.
