Abstract:With the increased monitoring of low voltage networks there is a move towards more localised energy networks with unique technological and market opportunities. Integration of advanced analytics, forecasting and control methods provide many new mechanisms for supporting the future low carbon networks but also produce many challenges. This talk will discuss some of these challenges and opportunities based on our research and recent work. Included in our talk will be discussions on how smart meter data will drive new ways to manage customers, how community storage can be used to provide benefits to consumers and the network, what are some of the roadblocks to realising these opportunities, and what are some of the ways we are trying to help facilitate better use of data and analytics.
