Demand-side management has been taking its place in supporting power system operations and planning in the deregulated era. Significant reliability [...]

Solving Non-Technical Losses Problem by Technical Methods
Non-technical losses in distribution systems comprised about 2-3%, my estimate, of the total system losses. Total distribution system losses equals technical losses plus non-technical losses.
In my experience and some readings, I believe that non-technical losses can be minimized or mitigated by utilizing non-technical strategies.
1. Modeling and benchmarking technical losses thru computer simulations – if a [...]
