Abstract

Many developing countries frequently resort to disconnecting large parts of their power grid from supply (i.e., load shedding), often due to limitations in their generation capacity. Some homes suffer more than others because fairness is not taken into due consideration during load shedding. In this paper, we briefly discuss and evaluate a number of solutions which mitigate against unfairness and improve efficiency in load shedding.
