ABSTRACT
As discussed in Chapter 3, the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) smart microgrid includes an energy management system (EMS) stream. With the campus microgrid evolving over the years, its EMS had been under continuous iterative development. New data-monitoring tools were added as new components were installed. Various smart grid functionalities such as demand response (DR) and load control were implemented to study the impact and feasibility of different strategies.
