| Abstract: | Energy management is crucial for the current energy transition. It can be employed to maintain a steady load profile, thereby optimizing grid efficiency. One way to achieve a steady load profile is through load management algorithms such as Profile Steering. Profile Steering is used to shape the power consumption profiles of devices towards an overall desired profile. However, the algorithm does not currently distinguish an optimization order for devices during each iteration and is not guaranteed to reach the optimal solution. Changing the order of optimization of devices within the algorithm could yield better results. One possible method to order devices based on their flexibility was implemented and tested. Sorting devices in ascending order of flexibility allows more flexible devices to compensate for devices with lower flexibility. This implementation can achieve a similar load profile to the original algorithm whilst reducing the computation time by a factor of 2. |
