Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Advanced technologies are employed by smart grids to enhance the efficiency, dependability, security, and sustainability of the electricity system. This Special Issue solicits contributions that demonstrate the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning methods to address issues concerning smart grid administration, which comprises managing energy demand forecasting, renewable energy generation, the distribution network, and system security. This Special Issue encourages authors to share their results, analyses, studies and critical evaluations that focus on the integration of machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms into smart grids. Contributions that illustrate the practical application of methods such as neural networks, data analysis, clustering algorithms, and supervised and unsupervised learning are particularly welcome.

This Special Issue’s topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Machine learning and AI systems for stability, reliability and to improve the resilience of the electricity system;
  • Protection systems for Smart Grids, for example, utilizing data from PMU;
  • Intelligent systems for energy storage with the integration of the "Vehicle 2 Grid" systems;
  • Development of diagnostic systems for smart grids, alongside the integration of big data, cloud systems and API tools;
  • ML systems for demand-side management and demand response and building energy management;
  • ICT technologies for power systems;
  • Forecast of load and electricity production.

With the rapid growth in the proportion of renewable energy access and the structural complexity of distributed energy systems, traditional microgrid (MG) scheduling methods that rely on mathematical optimization models and expert experience are facing significant challenges. Therefore, it is essential to present a novel scheduling technique with high intelligence and fast decision-making capacity to realize MGs’ automatic operation and regulation. This paper proposes an optimal scheduling decision-making method for MGs based on deep neural networks (DNN). Firstly, a typical mathematical scheduling model used for MG operation is introduced, and the limitations of current methods are analyzed. Then, a two-stage optimal scheduling framework comprising day-ahead and intra-day stages is presented. The day-ahead part is solved by mixed integer linear programming (MILP), and the intra-day part uses a convolutional neural network (CNN)—bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi LSTM) for high-speed rolling decision making, with the outputs adjusted by a power correction balance algorithm. Finally, the validity of the model and algorithm of this paper are verified by arithmetic case analysis. Full article

Named entity identification is an important step in building a knowledge graph of the grid domain, which contains a certain number of nested entities. To address the issue of nested entities in the Chinese power dispatching domain’s named entity recognition, we propose a RoBERTa-Attention-FL model. This model effectively recognizes nested entities using the span representation annotation method. We extract the output values from RoBERTa’s middle 4–10 layers, obtain syntactic information from the Transformer Encoder layers via the multi-head self-attention mechanism, and integrate it with deep semantic information output from RoBERTa’s last layer. During training, we use Focal Loss to mitigate the sample imbalance problem. To evaluate the model’s performance, we construct named entity recognition datasets for flat and nested entities in the power dispatching domain annotated with actual power operation data, and conduct experiments. The results indicate that compared to the baseline model, the RoBERTa-Attention-FL model significantly improves recognition performance, increasing the F1-score by 4.28% to 90.35%, with an accuracy rate of 92.53% and a recall rate of 88.12%.
