Firstly, construct a power grid load sensitivity identification architecture consisting of data layer, service layer, and application layer. Secondly, construct a discrete Kalman filter model, determine the time update formula, and design a Kalman filter. Then, the adaptive Kalman filter is used to verify the load node status of the power grid and identify the load data. Finally, based on the data identification results, the relay protection setting value is calculated and used for adaptive online identification of power grid load sensitivity. The experimental results show that the covariance of the method proposed in this paper is stable at 0.01, the sensor acquisition information error remains below 1%, the sensitivity index is high, and it has good robustness.

Firstly, the missing values of electricity consumption data are estimated using a seasonal exponential smoothing model. Then, the missing values are supplemented and the time series is decomposed. For each decomposed part, a suitable model is selected for fitting. For long-term trends, use univariate linear regression prediction method. For seasonal changes, choose seasonal ARIMA model for modelling. For periodic changes, use Fourier analysis method for prediction. For irregular changes, combine univariate linear regression prediction method and binary linear regression prediction method for prediction. Finally, the GARCH model is introduced to test the error sequence. The experimental results show that the proposed method improves the accuracy of the prediction model and has practical application value. Journal: Int.

Therefore, a new method for optimising the capacity of the active distribution network is studied. Firstly, under distributed photovoltaic access, an active distribution network power model is constructed from three aspects: wind power model, photovoltaic model, and energy storage system model. Secondly, with the goal of minimising the annual cost and daily operating cost, construct an active distribution network capacity optimisation configuration objective function. Finally, the particle swarm optimisation algorithm is used to obtain the optimal solution of the objective function and complete the active distribution network capacity optimisation configuration.

The phasor measurement unit (PMU) has a major role in the microgrid to monitor and control the grid effectively. It assesses the voltage magnitude and phase angle at its location along with the current magnitude and phase angle of the adjacent branch. This paper focuses on the particle swarm optimisation (PSO) algorithm to determine the optimal position and size of DG and binary-based PSO (BPSO) to identify optimal locations for PMUs to guarantee full observability of the network. The proposed method was tested on an IEEE 33-bus radial system. Results showed that power loss is reduced by 48.7% and 57.6% with single and two DGs, respectively, with penetration levels of 67.74% and 43.97%. The number of PMUs reduced with a cost reduction of 7%. Journal: Int.

With the increasing complexity and uncertainty of the power grid, traditional prediction models still have insufficient accuracy and neglect seasonal changes. In this paper, a data-driven multi-scale hybrid prediction model for residential electricity load is proposed, which integrates a convolutional neural network (CNN), long short-term memory (LSTM), and attention mechanism. The seasonal decomposition was applied to extract seasonal patterns of the electricity consumption data. The hybrid model integrates the parallel processing capability of CNN and the long time-series modelling capability of LSTM to capture the spatial-temporal characteristics of electricity load accurately. The attention mechanism is employed to calculate the critical weight to enhance the prediction accuracy dynamically. Finally, detailed comparison experiments show that the proposed hybrid model outperformed state-of-the-art algorithms. The MAPE of the hourly and daily prediction results of the proposed model are 2.36% and 0.76%, respectively. Journal: Int.

Simulation results show that when the disturbance intensity is 0.02 p.u., for strategy 1, the frequency deviation (FD) of the proposed method is ±0.011 p.u., with a response time of only 0.477 seconds; for strategy 2, the frequency modulation (FM) accuracy of the proposed method is ±0.031 p.u., with a response time of 0.79 seconds. The research results show that an adiabatic electromagnetic compressed air energy storage system can effectively improve the frequency regulation accuracy and response speed of the power grid, providing a stable and efficient frequency regulation method for power grids with a high penetration of renewable energy sources.

By analysing the structure and treatment process of USTS, a mathematical model of the sewage treatment system was established. The back propagation (BP) neural networks algorithm was used to train and optimise the model to improve its prediction and control capabilities. The effectiveness and reliability of the model were verified through practical application and validation. The experiment in this article showed that the reliability of the mathematical model of USTS based on ecological restoration concept was between 95%-98%, and the effectiveness of the mathematical model of USTS based on ecological restoration concept was between 93%-97%. The results show that the mathematical model of urban sewage treatment systems incorporating ecological restoration concepts can significantly reduce energy consumption and operating costs.
