Abstract: A Stackelberg game approach is used to describe a Demand-Response (DR) model for electricity trading between one utility company and multiple users, balancing supply and demand as well as smoothing an aggregated load in the power grid system. The interactions between the utility company and users are formulated into a 1-leader and N-follower Stackelberg game, where optimization problems are formed for each player to help select an optimal strategy. A pricing function is adopted for regulating real-time prices (RTP), and acts as a coordinator inducing users to join the game. An iterative algorithm is proposed to derive a Stackelberg equilibrium, through which optimal power generation and power demands are determined for the utility company and users, respectively.
