abstract = {Demand response of industrial processes generally accounts
for active power, but not reactive power which grows in
importance for balancing local voltage levels in future
electricity grids. We present an optimization-based approach
to integrate reactive power into demand response scheduling
and derive first estimates on the arising potentials. To
this end, we extend a resource-task network scheduling model
to account for the reactive power of electrically-powered
process tasks, local power converters, and the local power
grid. As an illustrative example, we study the multi-step
copper production. We find a large achievable range of
reactive power provision without compromising production
volume or operating cost. Furthermore, we demonstrate how
reactive power could be provided as an ancillary service by
following a signal. Our results show that penalties or
additional investment in compensation devices for power
factor correction can be avoided through reactive power
control of local power converters. Moreover, we demonstrate
that industrial processes with sufficient capacity can
alleviate voltage problems in transmission grids. Our work
therefore lays the groundwork towards determining the
reactive power scheduling potential of power-intensive
production processes, and showcases its potential support
for the voltage stability of future power grids.},
