| Abstract | Per the National Energy Policy, Demand Side Management (DSM) is one of the energy conservations that performs a function to manage electric power of demand-side resources. One of the DSM solutions is a demand response program, which is a part of Thailand Smart Grid Action Plan 2017 - 2021. Demand response program such as peak demand reduction plays a role in both the management of the electricity crisis and enhance energy security. This paper presents a pilot project for a fully automated demand response program at MEA Rat Burana District Office. The system is composed of a Building Energy Management System (BEMS) with Demand Response Client gateway and 5 energy controllers at the air conditioner by using the OpenADR2.0b protocol. Also, this concept leads to automatic or semi-automatic demand response program in the future. The result shows the total energy consumption reduction for air conditioners by 53.5%. The future works to be carried out are to implement into other MEA District Office such as Khlong Toei, Yan Nawa and Bang Khun Thian and to test with a Load Aggregator Management System (LAMS). |
