Factored Models for Multiscale Decision-Making in Smart Grid Customers
Active participation of customers in the management of demand, and renewable energy supply, is a critical goal of the Smart Grid vision. However, this is a complex problem with numerous scenarios that are difficult to test in field projects. Rich and scalable simulations are required to develop effective strategies and policies that elicit desirable behavior from customers. We present a versati...
متن کاملPrediction Models for Dynamic Decision Making in Smart Grid
The widespread use of smart meters and other sensors in smart grid has resulted in unprecedented amounts of data being generated at high spatial and temporal resolutions. This high volume data is being generated at a high velocity and comes from a variety of sources, and is designated as “big data” by researchers and practitioners in various domains, including the smart grid domain. Predictive ...
متن کاملFactored MDPs for Optimal Prosumer Decision-Making in the Smart Grid
Tackling the decision-making problem faced by a prosumer (i.e., a producer that is simultaneously a consumer) when selling and buying energy in the emerging smart electricity grid, is of utmost importance for the economic profitability of such a business entity. In this thesis, we model, for the first time, this problem as a factored Markov Decision process (MDP). Our model successfully capture...

متن کاملThe Privacy Issue for Pseudonymized Customers in the Smart Grid
This is a short overview of the privacy issues for customers in the Smart Grid infrastructure. Smart meter and other devices within the Smart Grid produce a lot of privacy sensitive data. With this find grained data it is possible to make predictions about the daily routine of a household or create a movement profile of a vehicle. There are techniques to protect the privacy of a person in netwo...
