Abstract

This review paper thoroughly explores the impact of artificial intelligence on the planning and operation of distributed energy systems in smart grids. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence techniques such as machine learning, optimization, and cognitive computing, new opportunities are emerging to enhance the efficiency and reliability of electrical grids. From demand and generation prediction to energy flow optimization and load management, artificial intelligence is playing a pivotal role in the transformation of energy infrastructure. This paper delves deeply into the latest advancements in specific artificial intelligence applications within the context of distributed energy systems, including the coordination of distributed energy resources, the integration of intermittent renewable energies, and the enhancement of demand response. Furthermore, it discusses the technical, economic, and regulatory challenges associated with the implementation of artificial intelligence-based solutions, as well as the ethical considerations related to automation and autonomous decision-making in the energy sector. This comprehensive analysis provides a detailed insight into how artificial intelligence is reshaping the planning and operation of smart grids and highlights future research and development areas that are crucial for achieving a more efficient, sustainable, and resilient electrical system.
