An Ising Spin-Based Model to Explore Efficient Flexibility in Distributed Power Systems

Figure 8

Aggregator boundaries and total magnetisation. Standard evolution (red) compared with another evolution where spins interact only with neighbours belonging to the same aggregator (blue). Dots represent 100 realisations for each and lines show averaged values ( shown in blue vertical line). The inset zooms in the solutions where there is a phase-like transition at (grey dotted line).
