Abstract
We address the problem of modeling and analyzing the flexible behavior of Pro- sumer systems for the purpose of balanc- ing production and consumption of en- ergy in, for example, an energy grid. We introduce the notion of Resource Timed Automata (RTA) and show how pro- sumers can be modeled using these au- tomata. Furthermore, we show that ag- geregation of prosumers in a smart elec- tricity grid can be modeled as a special kind of parallel composition of such au- tomata, and the balancing problem can be formalized as reachability problems on an observer automaton. Finally, we illus- trate how these reachability problems can be solved using established methods from model checking, and discuss why we sus- pect these methods will scale well in prac- tice for this type of problem.
