Prediction models and their role in advanced energy management systems supporting energy flexibility services

Automated decision tools, such as advanced energy management systems, are required to involve the electrical grid users in energy flexibility services. This paper focuses on the prediction models as a substantial part of decision strategy in advanced energy management systems and on advanced energy management systems as a tool that supports the active involvement of electrical grid users in energy flexibility services. Prediction models' desired properties are self-establishing and self-adaptation, which require new solutions in data selection, filtering, processing and model learning. Some of these properties are investigated within this paper.
