However, the participant of consumers challenges the current power systems with system integration and cooperation and security issues. In this paper, the authors introduce a service-oriented approach to AMI aiming at solving the intercommunication problem and meanwhile providing a trust and secure environment for smart grids. In this approach heterogeneous systems expose services to the network. System integration and cooperation are done through service composition. A generic service interfacing method is designed to develop standardized services for heterogeneous power systems. Moreover, role-based access control mechanism is used to guarantee the secure access to smart grids. With the seamless communication between consumers and power systems and among power systems themselves, this service-oriented AMI can associate consumers with actual system workload and furthermore support the intelligent running of power systems.展开更多

Electric veh...A future smart grid must fulfill the vision of the Energy Internet in which millions of people produce their own energy from renewables in their homes, offices, and factories and share it with each other. Electric vehicles and local energy storage will be widely deployed. Internet technology will be utilized to transform the power grid into an energysharing inter-grid. To prepare for the future, a smart grid with intelligent periphery, or smart GRIP, is proposed. The building blocks of GRIP architecture are called clusters and include an energy-management system （EMS）-controlled transmission grid in the core and distribution grids, micro-grids, and smart buildings and homes on the periphery; all of which are hierarchically structured. The layered architecture of GRIP allows a seamless transition from the present to the future and plug-and-play interoperability. The basic functions of a cluster consist of （1） dispatch, （2） smoothing, and （3） mitigation. A risk-limiting dispatch methodology is presented; a new device, called the electric spring, is developed for smoothing out fluctuations in periphery clusters; and means to mitigate failures are discussed.展开更多

These projects are necessary for mapping of particular technical devices of advanced metering management （AMM） which is needed for successful SG and whole functional SG system operation. According to our opinion, for the next step of SG implementation, the participation of effective market design would be quite necessary. In other words, pilot project which is operated regardless to the market conditions and special SG tariff is incomplete and could be irrelevant for further evaluation of feasibility. With regard to above mentioned facts, the detailed cost-benefit-analysis （CBA） is needed to establish the correct methodology for evaluation of SG implementation effectiveness. Related aspects are mentioned and discussed in this paper, in which the particular cost and benefits as well as feedback that occurs as the reaction on implementation are summarized and quantified.展开更多

文摘The emerging of false data injection attacks(FDIAs)can fool the traditional detection methods by injecting false data,which has brought huge risks to the security of smart grids.For this reason,a resilient active defense control scheme based on interval observer detection is proposed in this paper to protect smart grids.The proposed active defense highlights the integration of detection and defense against FDIAs in smart girds.First,a dynamic physical grid model under FDIAs is modeled,in which model uncertainty and parameter uncertainty are taken into account.Then,an interval observer-based detection method against FDIAs is proposed,where a detection criteria using interval residual is put forward.Corresponding to the detection results,the resilient defense controller is triggered to defense the FDIAs if the system states are affected by FDIAs.Linear matrix inequality(LMI)approach is applied to design the resilient controller with H_(∞)performance.The system with the resilient defense controller can be robust to FDIAs and the gain of the resilient controller has a certain gain margin.Our active resilient defense approach can be built in real time and show accurate and quick respond to the injected FDIAs.The effectiveness of the proposed defense scheme is verified by the simulation results on an IEEE 30-bus grid system.

文摘As an emerging hot technology,smart grids(SGs)are being employed in many fields,such as smart homes and smart cities.Moreover,the application of artificial intelligence(AI)in SGs has promoted the development of the power industry.However,as users’demands for electricity increase,traditional centralized power trading is unable to well meet the user demands and an increasing number of small distributed generators are being employed in trading activities.This not only leads to numerous security risks for the trading data but also has a negative impact on the cost of power generation,electrical security,and other aspects.Accordingly,this study proposes a distributed power trading scheme based on blockchain and AI.To protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and producers,credibility is used as an indicator to restrict untrustworthy behavior.Simultaneously,the reliability and communication capabilities of nodes are considered in block verification to improve the transaction confirmation efficiency,and a weighted communication tree construction algorithm is designed to achieve superior data forwarding.Finally,AI sensors are set up in power equipment to detect electricity generation and transmission,which alert users when security hazards occur,such as thunderstorms or typhoons.The experimental results show that the proposed scheme can not only improve the trading security but also reduce system communication delays.
文摘Advanced Metering Infrastructure （AMI） enables smart grids to involve power consumers in the business process of power generation transmission, distribution and consumption. However, the participant of consumers challenges the current power systems with system integration and cooperation and security issues. In this paper, the authors introduce a service-oriented approach to AMI aiming at solving the intercommunication problem and meanwhile providing a trust and secure environment for smart grids. In this approach heterogeneous systems expose services to the network. System integration and cooperation are done through service composition. A generic service interfacing method is designed to develop standardized services for heterogeneous power systems. Moreover, role-based access control mechanism is used to guarantee the secure access to smart grids. With the seamless communication between consumers and power systems and among power systems themselves, this service-oriented AMI can associate consumers with actual system workload and furthermore support the intelligent running of power systems.

文摘A future smart grid must fulfill the vision of the Energy Internet in which millions of people produce their own energy from renewables in their homes, offices, and factories and share it with each other. Electric vehicles and local energy storage will be widely deployed. Internet technology will be utilized to transform the power grid into an energysharing inter-grid. To prepare for the future, a smart grid with intelligent periphery, or smart GRIP, is proposed. The building blocks of GRIP architecture are called clusters and include an energy-management system （EMS）-controlled transmission grid in the core and distribution grids, micro-grids, and smart buildings and homes on the periphery; all of which are hierarchically structured. The layered architecture of GRIP allows a seamless transition from the present to the future and plug-and-play interoperability. The basic functions of a cluster consist of （1） dispatch, （2） smoothing, and （3） mitigation. A risk-limiting dispatch methodology is presented; a new device, called the electric spring, is developed for smoothing out fluctuations in periphery clusters; and means to mitigate failures are discussed.

文摘This paper studies price-based residential demand response management(PB-RDRM)in smart grids,in which non-dispatchable and dispatchable loads(including general loads and plug-in electric vehicles(PEVs))are both involved.The PB-RDRM is composed of a bi-level optimization problem,in which the upper-level dynamic retail pricing problem aims to maximize the profit of a utility company(UC)by selecting optimal retail prices(RPs),while the lower-level demand response(DR)problem expects to minimize the comprehensive cost of loads by coordinating their energy consumption behavior.The challenges here are mainly two-fold:1)the uncertainty of energy consumption and RPs;2)the flexible PEVs’temporally coupled constraints,which make it impossible to directly develop a model-based optimization algorithm to solve the PB-RDRM.To address these challenges,we first model the dynamic retail pricing problem as a Markovian decision process(MDP),and then employ a model-free reinforcement learning(RL)algorithm to learn the optimal dynamic RPs of UC according to the loads’responses.Our proposed RL-based DR algorithm is benchmarked against two model-based optimization approaches(i.e.,distributed dual decomposition-based(DDB)method and distributed primal-dual interior(PDI)-based method),which require exact load and electricity price models.The comparison results show that,compared with the benchmark solutions,our proposed algorithm can not only adaptively decide the RPs through on-line learning processes,but also achieve larger social welfare within an unknown electricity market environment.

文摘The discussion about smart grid （SG） implementation is mostly focused on pilot projects. These projects are necessary for mapping of particular technical devices of advanced metering management （AMM） which is needed for successful SG and whole functional SG system operation. According to our opinion, for the next step of SG implementation, the participation of effective market design would be quite necessary. In other words, pilot project which is operated regardless to the market conditions and special SG tariff is incomplete and could be irrelevant for further evaluation of feasibility. With regard to above mentioned facts, the detailed cost-benefit-analysis （CBA） is needed to establish the correct methodology for evaluation of SG implementation effectiveness. Related aspects are mentioned and discussed in this paper, in which the particular cost and benefits as well as feedback that occurs as the reaction on implementation are summarized and quantified.

文摘Electricity theft is one of the major issues in developing countries which is affecting their economy badly.Especially with the introduction of emerging technologies,this issue became more complicated.Though many new energy theft detection(ETD)techniques have been proposed by utilising different data mining(DM)techniques,state&network(S&N)based techniques,and game theory(GT)techniques.Here,a detailed survey is presented where many state-of-the-art ETD techniques are studied and analysed for their strengths and limitations.Three levels of taxonomy are presented to classify state-of-the-art ETD techniques.Different types and ways of energy theft and their consequences are studied and summarised and different parameters to benchmark the performance of proposed techniques are extracted from literature.The challenges of different ETD techniques and their mitigation are suggested for future work.It is observed that the literature on ETD lacks knowledge management techniques that can be more effective,not only for ETD but also for theft tracking.This can help in the prevention of energy theft,in the future,as well as for ETD.
文摘This paper analyzes the influence of the global positionong system(GPS)spoofing attack(GSA)on phasor measurement units(PMU)measurements.We propose a detection method based on improved Capsule Neural Network(CapsNet)to handle this attack.In the improved CapsNet,the gated recurrent unit(GRU)is added to the front of the full connection layer of the CapsNet.The improved CapsNet trains and updates the network parameters according to the historical measurements of the smart grid.The detection method uses different structures to extract the temporal and spatial features of the measurements simultaneously,which can accurately distinguish the attacked data from the normal data,to improve the detection accuracy.Finally,simulation experiments are carried out on IEEE 14-,IEEE 118-bus systems.The experimental results show that compared with other detection methods,our method is proved to be more efficient.

文摘False data injection attack(FDIA)can affect the state estimation of the power grid by tampering with the measured value of the power grid data,and then destroying the stable operation of the smart grid.Existing work usually trains a detection model by fusing the data-driven features from diverse power data streams.Data-driven features,however,cannot effectively capture the differences between noisy data and attack samples.As a result,slight noise disturbances in the power grid may cause a large number of false detections for FDIA attacks.To address this problem,this paper designs a deep collaborative self-attention network to achieve robust FDIA detection,in which the spatio-temporal features of cascaded FDIA attacks are fully integrated.Firstly,a high-order Chebyshev polynomials-based graph convolution module is designed to effectively aggregate the spatio information between grid nodes,and the spatial self-attention mechanism is involved to dynamically assign attention weights to each node,which guides the network to pay more attention to the node information that is conducive to FDIA detection.Furthermore,the bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)network is introduced to conduct time series modeling and long-term dependence analysis for power grid data and utilizes the temporal self-attention mechanism to describe the time correlation of data and assign different weights to different time steps.Our designed deep collaborative network can effectively mine subtle perturbations from spatiotemporal feature information,efficiently distinguish power grid noise from FDIA attacks,and adapt to diverse attack intensities.Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method can obtain an efficient detection performance over actual load data from New York Independent System Operator(NYISO)in IEEE 14,IEEE 39,and IEEE 118 bus systems,and outperforms state-of-the-art FDIA detection schemes in terms of detection accuracy and robustness.
文摘Smart cities depend highly on an intelligent electrical networks to provide a reliable,safe,and clean power supplies.A smart grid achieves such aforementioned power supply by ensuring resilient energy delivery,which presents opportunities to improve the cost-effectiveness of power supply and minimize environmental impacts.A systematic evaluation of the comprehensive benefits brought by smart grid to smart cities can provide necessary theoretical fundamentals for urban planning and construction towards a sustainable energy future.However,most of the present methods of assessing smart cities do not fully take into account the benefits expected from the smart grid.To comprehensively evaluate the development levels of smart cities while revealing the supporting roles of smart grids,this article proposes a model of smart city development needs from the perspective of residents’needs based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs theory,which serves the primary purpose of building a smart city.By classifying and reintegrating the needs,an evaluation index system of smart grids supporting smart cities was further constructed.A case analysis concluded that smart grids,as an essential foundation and objective requirement for smart cities,are important in promoting scientific urban management,intelligent infrastructure,refined public services,efficient energy utilization,and industrial development and modernization.Further optimization suggestions were given to the city analyzed in the case include strengthening urban management and infrastructure constructions,such as electric vehicle charging facilities and wireless coverage.

文摘Electricity theft is a widespread non-technical issue that has a negative impact on both power grids and electricity users.It hinders the economic growth of utility companies,poses electrical risks,and impacts the high energy costs borne by consumers.The development of smart grids is crucial for the identification of power theft since these systems create enormous amounts of data,including information on client consumption,which may be used to identify electricity theft using machine learning and deep learning techniques.Moreover,there also exist different solutions such as hardware-based solutions to detect electricity theft that may require human resources and expensive hardware.Computer-based solutions are presented in the literature to identify electricity theft but due to the dimensionality curse,class imbalance issue and improper hyper-parameter tuning of such models lead to poor performance.In this research,a hybrid deep learning model abbreviated as RoGRUT is proposed to detect electricity theft as amalicious and non-malicious activity.The key steps of the RoGRUT are data preprocessing that covers the problem of class imbalance,feature extraction and final theft detection.Different advanced-level models like RoBERTa is used to address the curse of dimensionality issue,the near miss for class imbalance,and transfer learning for classification.The effectiveness of the RoGRUTis evaluated using the dataset fromactual smartmeters.A significant number of simulations demonstrate that,when compared to its competitors,the RoGRUT achieves the best classification results.The performance evaluation of the proposed model revealed exemplary results across variousmetrics.The accuracy achieved was 88%,with precision at an impressive 86%and recall reaching 84%.The F1-Score,a measure of overall performance,stood at 85%.Furthermore,themodel exhibited a noteworthyMatthew correlation coefficient of 78%and excelled with an area under the curve of 91%.

文摘Intelligent electronic devices(IEDs)are interconnected via communication networks and play pivotal roles in transmitting grid-related operational data and executing control instructions.In the context of the heightened security challenges within smart grids,IEDs pose significant risks due to inherent hardware and software vulner-abilities,as well as the openness and vulnerability of communication protocols.Smart grid security,distinct from traditional internet security,mainly relies on monitoring network security events at the platform layer,lacking an effective assessment mechanism for IEDs.Hence,we incorporate considerations for both cyber-attacks and physical faults,presenting security assessment indicators and methods specifically tailored for IEDs.Initially,we outline the security monitoring technology for IEDs,considering the necessary data sources for their security assessment.Subsequently,we classify IEDs and establish a comprehensive security monitoring index system,incorporating factors such as running states,network traffic,and abnormal behaviors.This index system contains 18 indicators in 3 categories.Additionally,we elucidate quantitative methods for various indicators and propose a hybrid security assessment method known as GRCW-hybrid,combining grey relational analysis(GRA),analytic hierarchy process(AHP),and entropy weight method(EWM).According to the proposed assessment method,the security risk level of IEDs can be graded into 6 levels,namely 0,1,2,3,4,and 5.The higher the level,the greater the security risk.Finally,we assess and simulate 15 scenarios in 3 categories,which are based on monitoring indicators and real-world situations encountered by IEDs.The results show that calculated security risk level based on the proposed assessment method are consistent with actual simulation.Thus,the reasonableness and effectiveness of the proposed index system and assessment method are validated.

文摘Peer-to-Peer(P2P)electricity trading is a significant research area that offers maximum fulfilment for both prosumer and consumer.It also decreases the quantity of line loss incurred in Smart Grid(SG).But,uncertainities in demand and supply of the electricity might lead to instability in P2P market for both prosumer and consumer.In recent times,numerous Machine Learning(ML)-enabled load predictive techniques have been developed,while most of the existing studies did not consider its implicit features,optimal parameter selection,and prediction stability.In order to overcome fulfill this research gap,the current research paper presents a new Multi-Objective Grasshopper Optimisation Algorithm(MOGOA)with Deep Extreme Learning Machine(DELM)-based short-term load predictive technique i.e.,MOGOA-DELM model for P2P Energy Trading(ET)in SGs.The proposed MOGOA-DELM model involves four distinct stages of operations namely,data cleaning,Feature Selection(FS),prediction,and parameter optimization.In addition,MOGOA-based FS technique is utilized in the selection of optimum subset of features.Besides,DELM-based predictive model is also applied in forecasting the load requirements.The proposed MOGOA model is also applied in FS and the selection of optimalDELM parameters to improve the predictive outcome.To inspect the effectual outcome of the proposed MOGOA-DELM model,a series of simulations was performed using UK Smart Meter dataset.In the experimentation procedure,the proposed model achieved the highest accuracy of 85.80%and the results established the superiority of the proposed model in predicting the testing data.
