Present energy systems are undergoing a radical transformation,
driven by the urgent need to address the climate change crisis. At
the same time, we are witnessing the sharp growth of energy data
and a revolution of advanced technologies, with artificial
intelligence (AI) and Blockchain emerging as two of the most
transformative technologies of our time. The convergence of these
two technologies has the potential to create a paradigm shift in
the energy sector, enabling the development of smart energy systems
that are more resilient, efficient, and sustainable. This book
situates itself at the forefront of this paradigm shift, providing
a timely and comprehensive guide to AI and Blockchain technologies
in the energy system. Moving from an introduction to the basic
concepts of smart energy systems, this book proceeds to examine the
key challenges facing the energy system, and how AI and Blockchain
can be used to address these challenges. Research examples are
presented to showcase the role and impact of these new
technologies, while the latest developed testbeds are summarised
and explained to help researchers accelerate their development of
these technologies. This book is an indispensable guide to the
current changes in the energy system, being of particular use to
industry professionals, from researchers to management, looking to
stay ahead of technological developments.
This book presents cutting-edge perspectives and research results
in smart energy spanning multiple disciplines across four main
topics: smart metering, smart grid modeling, control and
optimization, and smart grid communications and networking.
Chapters from an international panel of experts in the field cover:
privacy-preserving data aggregation in smart metering systems;
smart price-based scheduling of flexible residential appliances;
smart tariffs for demand response from smart metering platforms;
decentralized models for real-time renewable integration in future
grid; distributed and decentralized control in future power
systems; multiobjective optimization for smart grid system design;
frequency regulation of smart grid via dynamic demand control and
battery energy storage systems; distributed frequency control and
demand-side management; game theory approaches for demand side
management in the smart grid; energy storage systems and grid
integration; overview of research in the ADVANTAGE project; big
data analysis of power grid from random matrix theory; a
model-driven evaluation of demand response communication protocols
for smart grid; energy efficient smart grid communications; and
cyber security of smart grid state estimation.
From Internet of Things to Smart Cities: Enabling Technologies
explores the information and communication technologies (ICT)
needed to enable real-time responses to current environmental,
technological, societal, and economic challenges. ICT technologies
can be utilized to help with reducing carbon emissions, improving
resource utilization efficiency, promoting active engagement of
citizens, and more. This book aims to introduce the latest ICT
technologies and to promote international collaborations across the
scientific community, and eventually, the general public. It
consists of three tightly coupled parts. The first part explores
the involvement of enabling technologies from basic
machine-to-machine communications to Internet of Things
technologies. The second part of the book focuses on state of the
art data analytics and security techniques, and the last part of
the book discusses the design of human-machine interfaces,
including smart home and cities. Features Provides an extended
literature review of relevant technologies, in addition to detailed
comparison diagrams, making new readers be easier to grasp
fundamental and wide knowledge Contains the most recent research
results in the field of communications, signal processing and
computing sciences for facilitating smart homes, buildings, and
cities Includes future research directions in Internet of Things,
smart homes, smart buildings, smart grid, and smart cities Presents
real examples of applying these enabling technologies to smart
homes, transportation systems and cities With contributions from
leading experts, the book follows an easy structure that not only
presents timely research topics in-depth, but also integrates them
into real world applications to help readers to better understand
them.
