Experimental Methodology to Optimize Power Flow in Utility Grid with Integrated Renewable Energy and Storage Devices Using Hidden Markov Model.

A continuous energy supply to the load side is required by modern power systems. This calls for a sound understanding of how to forecast load demand in the present and the future with the least degree of inaccuracy. Typically, a sequential method with two steps—forecasting and optimization—is used to derive judgments from data. For achieving this goal, optimized power flow is focused in this paper through load forecasting, mode selection, and optimization of power forecasting. Firstly, load forecasting is implemented using time series, and economic and weather-related information for the different consumer's load. Then mode selection is implemented using Hidden Markov Model that determines the requested load for grid-connected or RES mode. When composite RES is developed, the percentage of serviced load rises as more renewable energy sources are added. Following the implementation of the consumer load and mode selection, optimization is used to improve the power flow. The empirical findings show enhanced prescriptive performance when compared to answers found in single- and multi-household contexts. Also, we offer insightful information on how explaining performance is described. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
