Abstract

This paper shows the design phases of a platform model for the integration of users with distributed energy resources (DER) in a distribution network. DER considered are the demand response (DR) and the distributed generation (DG). The paper shows how, through the integration platform, users can become providers of services and energy for the network. For the administration of the platform, there is an integrating agent that interacts with the users and the network operator. The UML (Unified Modeling Language) methodology was used for design.
