Abstract

A method for reducing the effects of a demand/response event in a power distribution network can include identifying a load profile in the power distribution network, in response to detecting a peak in the load profile, decreasing the voltage in the power distribution network and, in response to detecting a trough in the load profile, increasing the voltage in the power distribution network.
