The development of demand response programs has been allowing to improve power system performance in several ways, both in terms of the management of electricity markets, as well as regarding benefits in its operation. In order to model the remuneration for the participation of consumers in the scheduling of resources, this paper proposes a methodology based on the use of four incentive-based tariffs for the remuneration of demand response participation. It considers steps, quadratic, constant and linear remuneration. The optimization model enables Virtual Power Players to minimize operation costs, considering different critical situations of management and operation. The optimization problem has been solved by Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization. The case study concerns 168 consumers, classified into 5 consumer types, 118 distributed generation resources and 4 external suppliers. ; The present work was done and funded in the scope of the following projects: EUREKA - ITEA2 Project SEAS with project number 12004; ELECON Project, REA grant agreement No 318912 (FP7 PIRSES-GA2012-318912); H2020 DREAM-GO Project (Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No 641794); and UID/EEA/00760/2013 funded by FEDER Funds through COMPETE program and by National Funds through FCT.
