The smart power grid blends the bidirectional energy with information flow. Compared to the
traditional power grid, it requires more intelligent and faster control, protection, automation …

Today's electricity grid is transitioning to a so-called smart grid. The associated challenges
and funding initiatives have spurred great efforts from the research community to propose …

Abstract Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) represent a novel concept towards flexible integration
of distributed energy resources (DERs) into the smart grid. VPPs will eventually help to …

This paper presents a review of the many simulation tools that have been reported for
modeling and managing the impact of electric vehicles on power distribution networks, and …

Electricity distribution is moving towards active, more flexible, smarter and decentralized
energy systems. This transition requires System Operators (SO) to dynamically monitor and …

In future power systems, in the smart grid and microgrids operation paradigms, consumers
can be seen as an energy resource with decentralized and autonomous decisions in the …

This paper proposes a novel case-based reasoning (CBR) recommender system for
intelligent energy management in buildings. The proposed approach recommends the …

With the transition toward a smart grid, the power system has become strongly intertwined
with the information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure. The …

Smart grids are considered a promising alternative to the existing power grid, combining
intelligent energy management with green power generation. Decomposed further into …
