Special Session V

AI based Optimization, Planning, and Fault Diagnosis of New Power Systems

With large-scale utilization and widespread integration of various renewable energy (e.g., wind and solar energies) into modern power systems, traditional power system that mainly consists of fossil energy has experienced dramatical transformation. The proposed "New Power System" concept aims to construct a clean, low carbon, safe, and efficient modern energy system, which takes the renewable energy as the basis while other fossil energy as the supplementary. Meanwhile, with the maturity of deep learning, the improvement of computing power, and the wealth of big data accumulated in the Internet era, artificial intelligence technology has achieved a dramatical development and widespread applications in power systems over the last decade. Due to the inherent strong randomness and uncertainties characteristics of renewable energy, when the proportion of renewable energy increases, frequent load transfer in a short time will be a common scenario in the future. Therefore, it is difficult yet crucial to undertake some advanced techniques in modern power system with large-scale renewable energy integration, to ensure the optimal and reliable power generation. Also, it is promising to combine digital technology and artificial intelligence to realize efficient, accurate and timely optimization and optimal planning of new power systems, which is beneficial for the economic and efficient operation. Meanwhile, with the continuous expansion of the power system scale and the increasing complexity of the structure, a large number of alarm information flow into the dispatching center in a short time, which far exceeds the processing capacity of the operators, thus the power system fault diagnosis system is crucial for decision-making reference.

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Planning of renewable energy system
Operation planning and control of energy storage system
Transmission line and faults location
Life cycle perception and analysis
Fault diagnosis of electrical equipment
Big data and AI based optimization technology
Wind/Solar output power forecasting
Regulation technique for power system intelligent power consumptio
