  4. Abstract:
  5. Different reasons such as power system restructuring, electricity price variation in some hours of a day and growth in the fuel price, have led to more attention to demand response (DR) programmes for consumers. Two important issues in DR programmes are emergency demand response programming (EDRP) and Interruptible/Curtail able (I/C) programme that is utilised as interruptible load contracts (ILC). The EDDR is utilised to decrease the consumption in peak load or critical hours of the day. This occurs by means of customer's behaviour in response to the incentives. However, the curtailment of voluntarily loads in the critical hours considering the consumer requirements is an action that can be performed in DR. A model has been proposed for EDRP and ILC implementation in the unit commitment (UC) programme. Then, the effect of these two DR programmes have been compared in long-term UC problem with fuel constraints. The proposed methodology has been formulated as a mixed integer linear problem and implemented in GAMS environment. The proposed model is applied to a 6-bus test system and a modified IEEE 118-bus system to demonstrate its effectiveness
