This can help to integrate fluctuating renewable energies into the electric power system, balance production and demand fluctuations, provide balancing energy and relieve congested grid sections. At the same time, companies can tap new sources of income [...] The expansion of renewable energies and the resulting gain in fluctuating power input are increasing the need for more flexibility in the electric power system. One option for providing more flexibility in the electric power system is to match electricity consumption more closely with electric power [...] ization of DSM.
