| Abstract | The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the feasibility of reducing electricity cost for a manufacturing factory through scheduling in a smart grid scenario while maintaining production throughput. Different from traditional rate structure, electricity price of smart grid is time varying and dependent on the total demand. The most common strategy for a factory to reduce electricity cost is to shift electricity usage from on-peak hours to off-peak hours. However, changes in manufacturing schedules affect power demand and electricity price. Moreover, a manufacturing process cannot be interrupted after being started. This dynamic coupling brings additional challenges to scheduling problem that is already NP-hard. In this paper, a time-indexed integer programming scheme is developed and implemented in General Algebraic Modeling System to solve the scheduling problem. To demonstrate the approach, a hypothetical region including power distribution/transmission system, residential/commercial buildings and a flow shop operating 8/16 working hours/day is considered. The operation of residential/commercial buildings is subject to time-of-use tariff and described in GridLAB-D. Simulation results show that the factory electricity cost is reduced by 2%–4% without any production loss. The results also suggest that in addition to residential/commercial buildings, it is possible to involve manufacturing facilities in demand-side management. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
