  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Demand-side Flexibility in Smart Grid

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology ((BRIEFSAPPLSCIENCES))

Abstract

Increasing the integration of variable renewable energy sources to power systems has a negative effect on the reliable operation of the grid. To overcome this challenge, increasing flexibility is known to be the main key. This chapter aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of different sources of flexibility in power systems.
