Big Data Analysis for Smart Electrical Energy Distribution Systems

Big Data Analysis for Smart Electrical Energy Distribution Systems covers the application of big data analytics and techniques with selective applications for the operation, analysis, planning and design of future electrical distribution systems. The book provides data-driven applications in smart distribution systems, machine learning techniques for renewable energy predictions, and load forecasting examples for intelligent techno-economic operation and control of the network as a microgrid. This title gives those within this multidisciplinary field a comprehensive look at machine learning techniques for renewable energy prediction, demand forecasting, and intelligent techno-economic operation and control of distributed energy systems.

With electricity networks changing rapidly due to the increased integration of intermittent and variable power generation from renewable energy sources, mismatch between the supply and demand of electricity is also on the rise. Hence, the use of new renewables is a widely discussed topic.
