Abstract
Methods and arrangements for enforcing demand management in electrical grids. Electrical power is provided from an electrical network to at least one substation, the electrical network including an electrical generation grid in communication with the at least one substation, the at least one substation comprising a power limiter. Electrical power is provided from the at least one substation to a plurality of locations, each location comprising a smart power demand manager which controls electrical power delivery to at least power-drawing item. There is detected, with respect to the electrical network, at least one discrepancy comprising at least one of: an unbalanced network load; an unscheduled network load; a change in network supply; and a change in network condition. In response to such detection, electrical power delivery is controlled via employing the power limiter of the at least one substation in collaboration with at least one smart power demand manager.
