Strategy for Designing DSM Program after the Restructuring in Korea
Abstract
To maintain supply adequacy and mitigate price volatility in electricity market, the necessity for obtaining demandside
resource is increasing and obtaining demand-side resource is set as a priority of electricity policy. For this
purpose, we introduce a new DSM mechanism and program development strategies based on customer response
and electricity industry efficiency. Especially we introduced DLC(Direct Load Control) technology via two-way
communication scheme for large customer. This DLC program targets interruptible load that covers large customer
in commercial and industrial sector. This program can retain demand reserve that does not interrupt process in plant
or business along with real-time monitoring load condition of end-use and interrupt load by pre-determined
procedures, if necessary. This analysis shows that electricity boiler, pump, blower, HVAC can save energy during
some time. In addition, developing system to monitor end-use load and interconnecting it with MOS(Market
Operation System) should be established as infrastructure in DSM.
