These load models are based on an energy balance between the indoor environment, the dwelling constructive parameters, the ETS device and the internal mass through a discrete statespace equation system. The main application of this load model has been oriented towards the simulation of ETS performance in order to evaluate the possibilities of Load Management in the new de-regulated structures of Electrical Power Systems. The proposed model has been implemented and validated for heat storage, using real data collected during the last years in residential areas to evaluate its accuracy and flexibility. Finally, a simulation case study is presented to show the possibilities of modifying the actual residential demand profile through a storage period re-scheduling proposed by the authors, taking into account the customer minimum comfort levels and avoiding program rejection. %K Ingeniería Eléctrica %K Modelado de carga residencial %K Almacenamiento térmico eléctrico %K Demanda de ofertas %K Residential load modeling %K Electrical thermal storage %K Demand side bidding %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
