Being heat demand a representative slice of the total load of any non-tropical building, this paper develops a practical and less invasive forecast method for Building Energy Managers within a control framework. Methodologically, after performing a Graphical Data Analysis of heat demand profiles from two dwellings and an industrial facility, terms of a General Additive Model are developed, combining this powerful machine learning technique, adaptiveness, and the convenience of an available online meteorological forecast. The algorithm was able to predict thermal energy usage of 75% of the test days with an error below 25%, disregarding profile type and looking always at the next 48 hours. Also, results showed that the true added value of ambient temperature as exogenous and explanatory variable comes with its daily aggregation.","PeriodicalId":413369,"journal":{"name":"2020 8th International Conference on Smart Grid (icSmartGrid)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115728031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To deal with these kinds of attacks on smart grid networks, vulnerability analysis should carefully be developed under realistic conditions. Existing research efforts on FDI attacks have not performed the vulnerability analysis of the smart grid using the AC state estimation without incurring significant computational complexity. In this paper, we develop a low-complexity system to model the least-effort FDI attacks in the AC power grid. We do that by using a reduced row echelon (RRE) form-based greedy method on the AC state estimation process to compute the minimum number of measurements an attacker needs to compromise to launch the undetectable low-cost FDI attack with more efficiency. Simulation results obtained for various IEEE standard test systems show the efficient performance and enhanced accuracy of our proposed approach for modeling least-effort attacks.","PeriodicalId":413369,"journal":{"name":"2020 8th International Conference on Smart Grid (icSmartGrid)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125182516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increasing share of wind energy in the existing electricity system has created new opportunities and new challenges. Dual feed machines are the most relevant because of their several gain compared to fixed speed wind turbines. dual feed generators can improve the stability and energy quality of existing electrical systems. In this paper we focus on generating electricity by modeling the Doubly Fed Induction Generator and the development of his order to manage powers and provide system services. In the end, the simulation of grid side and wind turbine side is realized and the obtained results are discussed.

There is a renewed interest in understanding and developing DABs as core components for Solid State Transformers (SST). These transformers can add flexibility, controllability, and reliability to existing electrical distribution systems. Major elements of a DAB are two H-bridge converters and a high frequency transformer. With the advent of Wide Band Gap (WBP) devices offering higher voltage and power ratings, many initiatives have started to replace the traditional low frequency transformers with compact and controllable SSTs. In this talk, first the design and development of high frequency transformers are discussed. Then, several control methods for the DABs including phase-shift, duty ratio, and triple phase shifts are discussed to control the power flow. Methods are discussed to minimize the RMS current, reduce reactive power transfer, and minimize converter loss. Applications of DABs for several SST configurations a are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":413369,"journal":{"name":"2020 8th International Conference on Smart Grid (icSmartGrid)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128765947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Electricity is essential for the overall development of an individual, and the society in turn benefits from it. Lack of access to grid electricity forces the rural inhabitants to utilize conventional sources of energy, causing not just inconvenience but also deterioration of the environment. In this paper, the reasons preventing reliable power supply to rural places in India have been discussed. Applicability of Blockchain technology to address these challenges and promote rural electrification is being researched. This paper focuses specifically on problems faced by rural communities due to which they avoid electricity connections, and how these problems can be solved by Blockchain technology. Blockchain has the potential to eliminate expensive third-party service costs, generate additional revenue through peer-to-peer trade, planning the power consumption as per budget through smart metering and maintain transparency and accuracy of energy transactions. However, the road to implementation consists of many challenges to overcome which have been discussed in this paper.","PeriodicalId":413369,"journal":{"name":"2020 8th International Conference on Smart Grid (icSmartGrid)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122233225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
