IEEE PES ESPAÑA | [Webinar(3) 31.05.2024] | THE ENERGY TRANSITION|  [Webinar(4º) 31.05.2024] | Artificial intelligence for energy systems. Developments from TU_DELFT and CITCEA-UPC

From IEEE PES SPAIN we continue with the [Webinar] series on the topic

THE ENERGY TRANSITION | Towards a DECARBONIZED ECONOMY

The energy transition towards a decarbonized economy will present a relevant challenge and a crucial transformation faced by our Society; Decelerating climate change effects is becoming a moral commitment.
As a society, we are part of the decarbonized energy process that goes through the electrification of the economy and it is supported by renewables within a sustainable energy model.
This means a change of paradigm which heads towards an immediate exciting future full of challenges at all levels associated with flexibility in its widest conception. It is assumed that a change of paradigm, that requires changing the focus from active based asset management towards the digitalization that ensures resiliency and security for the future electric systems.
In this context, we need to contribute and stimulate the exchange of ideas from different perspectives and experiences, creating a framework of reflection through these series of webinars. The expected benefit and impact is the identification of opportunities within the complexity associated with the change of paradigm.

 

In this webinar, researchers from CITCEA-UPC and TU-DELFT will explain their recent developments on artifcial intelligence applications for energy systems.

Title: Artificial intelligence for energy systems. Developments from TU_DELFT and CITCEA-UPC

Contents: The event will start with an introduction to the main activities from TU Delft "AI Energy" Lab and CITCEA-UPC "Smart energy and grids" area, with special focus on machine learning applications for power systems. Developments from TU Delft "AI Energy Lab", include new computational methods for system operation and control that combine statistical machine learning and mathematical optimisation. Special attention will be paid to applications covering congestion managament, home energy management systems, security assessment and on the trust and generazability of AI. Developments from CITCEA-UPC "Smart energy and grids" area will address data-driven services for enhancing the operation and planning of electrical distribution grids. In particular: non-technical losses estimation, behind-the-meter PV disaggregation, grid expansion planning, short-term load forecasting and flexibility services for Balancing Responsible Parties.

Speakers: Jochen Chremer (TU-Delft), Joan Marc Rodríguez Bernuz (CITCEA-UPC), Sara Barja (CITCEA-UPC), Mònica Aragüés (CITCEA-UPC), Marc Jené (CITCEA-UPC), Antonio E. Saldaña (CITCEA-UPC), Óscar Cabrera (CITCEA-UPC) and Adriano Caprara (CITCEA-UPC)
