Strategies of Demand Side Management and Various Impacts on Grid

This paper includes the study and analysis of demand side management and various use of techniques for the consumer demand side management. As the generation transmission and distribution consider as a whole power system and the steps taken for the energy efficiency makes a remarkable change in the utility and supply side, on the other hand the demand from the consumer side increasing rapidly and for fulfilling the demand of all the consumers more generation as well as transmission has to be done results in higher generation and transmission losses. So the most important step is to be taken at the consumer end for the demand reduction that will be totally interlinked with the generation and transmission. In this work we will try to find out various strategies to reduce the demand of power from the consumer side. Various sector like residential, industrial and agricultural consumers involved in the consumer side. Depending upon the consumer’s category DSM measures has to be taken to reduce the demand growth.
