Abstract

This paper explores the differences between simulating price-responsive load (PRL) interactions with power systems using integrated transmission and distribution (TD) models and transmission-only (T-only) models. This analysis uses the Integrated Grid Modeling System (IGMS) software to capture 'ISO-to-appliance' simulations using a synthetic TD model built on the PJM 5-Bus transmission network with multiple full-scale taxonomy feeders that include physics-based models of thousands of customers and PRLs. The results show important differences in the impacts of PRLs between integrated TD and T-only models. Experiments with the synthetic integrated TD dataset demonstrated that integrated TD simulation revealed notably larger differences between the PRL and no-PRL cases for load, and prices compared to T-only simulation. Similarly, differences are observed between the price response of individual buildings and distribution feeders and the corresponding transmission bus in the integrated TD simulations, which are difficult to capture in traditional T-only simulations.
