GROVER, H.K. e PRETORIUS, M.W.. The technology assessment of demand side bidding in the South African context. S. Afr. J. Ind. Eng. [online]. 2008, vol.19, n.2, pp.93-108. ISSN 2224-7890.
South Africa is currently in the grip of a severe power supply capacity constraint. January 2007 saw blackouts throughout the country, and worse was expected in the months to come. As a measure of immediate remedy Eskom has turned to demand side bidding (DSB), a methodology whereby the demand side has an opportunity to sell back flexible load to the supply side. This paper assesses DSB with the aim of evaluating and gauging the current and potential future standing of DSB as a technology product within the South African context.
