DESCRIPTION:Jean-Yves Leboudec (EPFL)\nEnergy storage and demand response 
 are used in the smart grid to compensate for fluctuations and forecasting 
 errors in demand and production. Demand response can also be used as a for
 m of storage\, where load rather than supply is stored. In the first part 
 of this talk\, we propose a system wide model for real time demand respons
 e. The model shows that evaporation\, namely the fraction of delayed deman
 d that eventually disappears\, plays a central role. Further\, large backl
 ogs of delayed demand may accumulate. In a second part\, we study a model 
 of real storage\, using pump hydro. We revisit an existing study by Bejan 
 et al.\; we study the impact of energy conversion efficiency and of the qu
 ality of wind predictions. We study storage control policies and find stra
 tegies that outperform the proposed fixed level policies.\n(Joint work wit
