K Hima Bindu 01 01 The Demand Side Management DSM is necessary to enhance the sustainability reliability and efficiencyof modern power systems DSM can be considered as well able to balance the market reduce the peak loads andreduce the necessity of cost of infrastructure investments by acting beforehand and altering the consumerside energyintensities Depending on the existing circumstances and cost indicators various measures such as load shifting peakclipping valley filling and energy saving are employed to optimize the utilization of electric power The dynamic roleof the end user can include integrating smart meters automated control as well as the responsive appliance to enhancethe stability of the grid and eventual reduction in the cost of operations DSM also lowers hybridization of theintegration of renewable energy sources by regulating fluctuation and ensuring flexibility in demand profile Thispaper discusses a number of DSM strategies and how they are implemented in commercial industrial and residentialsegments as well as their impact on grid performance and energy efficiency In sum the transition to smart resilientand lowcarbon energy should not be made without DSM Copyright (c) Journal of Engineering Technology and Sciences.
