Abstract :
Many utilities have load management programs whereby they directly control residential appliances in their service area. An algorithm for scheduling the load control using dynamic programming is presented. This method is based on an analytic dynamic model of the load under control. The method can be used for different utility objectives, including minimizing production cost and minimizing peak load over a period of time
