Book Data driven Approaches to Load Modeling Andmonitoring in Smart Energy Systems

Download or read book Data driven Approaches to Load Modeling Andmonitoring in Smart Energy Systems written by Guoming Tang and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In smart energy systems, load curve refers to the time series reported by smart meters, which indicate the energy consumption of customers over a certain period of time. The widespread use of load curve (data) in demand side management and demand response programs makes it one of the most important resources. To capture the load behavior or energy consumption patterns, load curve modeling is widely applied to help the utilities and residents make better plans and decisions. In this dissertation, with the help of load curve modeling, we focus on data-driven solutions to three load monitoring problems in different scenarios of smart energy systems, including residential power systems and datacenter power systems and covering the research fields of i) data cleansing, ii) energy disaggregation, and iii) fine-grained power monitoring. First, to improve the data quality for load curve modeling on the supply side, we challenge the regression-based approaches as an efficient way to load curve data cleansing and propose a new approach to analyzing and organizing load curve data. Our approach adopts a new view, termed portrait, on the load curve data by analyzing the inherent periodic patterns and re-organizing the data for ease of analysis. Furthermore, we introduce strategies to build virtual portrait datasets and demonstrate how this technique can be used for outlier detection in load curve. To identify the corrupted load curve data, we propose an appliance-driven approach that particularly takes advantage of information available on the demand side. It identifies corrupted data from the smart meter readings by solving a carefully-designed optimization problem. To solve the problem efficiently, we further develop a sequential local optimization algorithm that tackles the original NP-hard problem by solving an approximate problem in polynomial time. Second, to separate the aggregated energy consumption of a residential house into that of individual appliances, we propose a practical and universal energy disaggregation solution, only referring to the readily available information of appliances. Based on the sparsity of appliances' switching events, we first build a sparse switching event recovering (SSER) model. Then, by making use of the active epochs of switching events, we develop an efficient parallel local optimization algorithm to solve our model and obtain individual appliances' energy consumption. To explore the benefit of introducing low-cost energy meters for energy disaggregation, we propose a semi-intrusive appliance load monitoring (SIALM) approach for large-scale appliances situation. Instead of using only one meter, multiple meters are distributed in the power network to collect the aggregated load data from sub-groups of appliances. The proposed SSER model and parallel optimization algorithm are used for energy disaggregation within each sub-group of appliances. We further provide the sufficient conditions for unambiguous state recovery of multiple appliances, under which a minimum number of meters is obtained via a greedy clique-covering algorithm.Third, to achieve fine-grained power monitoring at server level in legacy datacenters, we present a zero-cost, purely software-based solution. With our solution, no power monitoring hardware is needed any more, leading to much reduced operating cost and hardware complexity. In detail, we establish power mapping functions (PMFs) between the states of servers and their power consumption, and infer the power consumption of each server with the aggregated power of the entire datacenter. We implement and evaluate our solution over a real-world datacenter with 326 servers. The results show that our solution can provide high precision power estimation at both the rack level and the server level. In specific, with PMFs including only two nonlinear terms, our power estimation i) at the rack level has mean relative error of 2.18%, and ii) at the server level has mean relative errors of 9.61% and 7.53% corresponding to the idle and peak power, respectively.

Book Scalable Data driven Modeling and Analytics for Smart Buildings

Download or read book Scalable Data driven Modeling and Analytics for Smart Buildings written by Srinivasan Iyengar and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buildings account for over 40% of the energy and 75% of the electricity usage. Thus, by reducing our energy footprint in buildings, we can improve our overall energysustainability. Further, the proliferation of networked sensors and IoT devices in recent years have enabled monitoring of buildings to provide data at various granularity. For example, smart plugs monitor appliance level usage inside the house, while solar meters monitor residential rooftop solar installations. Furthermore, smart meters record energy usage at a grid-scale. In this thesis, I argue that data-driven modeling applied to the IoT data from a smart building, at varying granularity, in association with third party data can help to understand and reduce human energy consumption. I present four data-driven modeling approaches - that use sophisticated techniques from Machine Learning, Optimization, and Time Series Analysis - applied at different granularities. First, I study IoT devices inside the house and discuss an approach called NIMD that automatically models individual electrical loads found in a household. The analytical model resulting from this approach can be used in several applications. For example, these models can improve the performance of NILM algorithms to disaggregate loads in a given household. Further, faulty or energy-inefficient appliances can be identified by observing deviations in model parameters over its lifetime. Second, I examine data from solar meters and present a machine learning framework called SolarCast to forecast energy generation from residential rooftop installations. The predictions enable exploiting the benefits of locally-generated solar energy. Third, I employ a sensorless approach utilizing a graphical model representation to report city-scale photovoltaic panel health and identify anomalies in solar energy production. Immediate identification of faults maximizes the solar investment by aiding in optimal operational performance. Finally, I focus on grid-level smart meter data and use correlations between energy usage and external weather to derive probabilistic estimates of energy, which is leveraged to identify the least efficient buildings from a large population along with the underlying cause of energy inefficiency. The identified homes can be targeted for custom energy efficiency programs.

This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on Smart Grids has recently focused on the energy monitoring issue, with the objective of maximizing the user consumption awareness in building contexts on the one hand, and providing utilities with a detailed description of customer habits on the other. In particular, Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM), the subject of this book, represents one of the hottest topics in Smart Grid applications. NILM refers to those techniques aimed at decomposing the consumption-aggregated data acquired at a single point of measurement into the diverse consumption profiles of appliances operating in the electrical system under study. This book provides a status report on the most promising NILM methods, with an overview of the publically available dataset on which the algorithm and experiments are based. Of the proposed methods, those based on the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) and the Deep Neural Network (DNN) are the best performing and most interesting from the future improvement point of view. One method from each category has been selected and the performance improvements achieved are described. Comparisons are made between the two reference techniques, and pros and cons are considered. In addition, performance improvements can be achieved when the reactive power component is exploited in addition to the active power consumption trace.
