Abstract(s)
Demand Response is a flexibility tool that can provide several benefits to the electric power system’s operation, namely by providing ancillary services. Although several countries have similar active consumer approaches, the truth is that these methodologies are not always clear or transparent to outsiders, and even sometimes to locals (difficult interpretation of legislation). In this way, the present paper explains Portuguese price-based and incentive-based demand response strategies, and proceed with an analysis and evaluation of the current stage of their implementation. Although the programs exist and are available, their actual use are still very limited.
