9 Ideas for Coordination Across Homes What are the best strategies for coordination across homes? Open research question: Time-varying pricing? (consumer controls appliances) Direct load control? (utility controls appliances ideally within consumer constraints) Aggregators? Microgrids? Centrally coordinated local control? (e.g. consumer controlled by selecting a random starting time from a utilitydetermined distribution) 9

10 Example of Centrally Coordinated Local Control Assume that some residents have agreed to schedule appliances like dishwashers to run overnight. The utility could broadcast a distribution of starting times to all participating appliances, and the appliance could then randomly choose when it will begin its load based on the distribution. 10

13 Example of Centrally Coordinated Local Control Triangular distribution of starting times still ensures that the appliance completes its cycle by 7am but also flattens the overnight aggregate electricity better than the uniform distribution Schedulable electricity 9pm 7am Uncontrollable electricity 13

14 Example of Centrally Coordinated Local Control The distribution of starting times could take on any shape to match the expected overnight supply of electricity from wind turbines, for instance Schedulable electricity 9pm 7am Uncontrollable electricity 14
