ABSTRACT
Dynamic energy systems provide the infrastructure to use the smart grid to enable demand response through dynamic energy management systems. Dynamic energy management is an innovative approach to managing load at the demand-side. A dynamic energy management system is likely to have a much larger impact on a building's electricity consumption and demand than just implementing energy efficiency and/or demand response on their own. Technology plays a key role in enabling demand response. At the end, some of the key features of a dynamic energy management system that are likely to facilitate implementation and user adoption are discussed. In addition to the other features mentioned in this book, the smart grid must enable connectivity with customers in a dynamic systems concept. Controls that have the ability to learn from past experience and apply that knowledge to future events.
