Technology-free microgrid modeling with application to demand side management

In this paper the authors attempt to put everything in a model in a technology-free way and using a reduced number of data, regardless of the accuracy in representation of loads and generators, only to get a roughly idea about magnitudes, in order to achieve a relatively easy way to experiment some demand side management algorithms, to get a rather general modeling approach, independent of technologies used, and useful to be applied on migrogrid instances. Also a demand side management instance is performed as a possible model application.
