Abstract

Distributed energy resources (DERs) and automation systems enable traditional electricity consumers to also produce and to store energy. These energy prosumers can become much more active in energy management. They can provide benefits to the grid by exchanging energy and energy-related services. This paper presents the fundamental economics of energy prosumers. It shows that the energy prosumer can act simultaneously as producer and consumer, and designs a strategy to maximize its revenue. Based on a linear bid/offer model, we show how prosumers operating in a market arrive at a stable equilibrium and present results for the case when prosumers bid strategically.
