Distributed Artificial Intelligence for Modern Power Systems
The modern power system, also referred to as smart grid, is the transformation of the traditional power system to one that is conscious, intelligent, distributed, and flexible. Such an electric power grid architecture can facilitate the distributed and secure flow of power from renewable energy sources including solar and wind. Smart grid operations and control is complex, now dealing with variable power and energy sources, bidirectional power flows, and uncertainty in forecasting and real- time availability of generation, loads, energy storage and other operational resources. Furthermore, modern power system operations will involve flexible loads and energy storage including electric vehicles. This talk will address the potentials and promises of Distributed Artificial Intelligence (AI) for modern power system operations and control. AI has evolved over the last 50 years to impact complex systems operations and control in a meaningful way. Examples of distributed AI technologies for stable, secure, reliable, and efficient operations and control in for the evolving electric power grid will be presented.
