Abstract: This disclosure describes a system and method for a central controller layer to monitor conditions and control operations of an electric grid. The central controller layer communicates with an intermediate controller layer that includes hubs to monitor operations of grid edge devices connected to different regions of the electric grid. The central controller layer obtains, from each hub, sensor data corresponding to measurements performed by the grid edge devices. The central controller layer determines, based on the sensor data and expected grid-wide operations, control strategies with expected electrical operating conditions for the respective region, and provides a respective control strategy to each hub. In response to receiving the respective control strategy for the hub, each hub generates operational parameters for at least one grid edge device that cause a grid edge device to adjust its operation based on the expected amount of power flow for the hub.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for selecting, from a unified electrical power grid model, a first proper subset of elements of the model. A first electrical grid simulation model is selected. A second, differing proper subset of elements of the model are selected. A second electrical grid simulation model that differs from the first electrical grid simulation model is selected. A set of boundary conditions common to the first electrical grid simulation model and the second electrical grid simulation model are determined. Operation of the electrical power grid is simulated, and can include (i) simulating, using the first electrical grid simulation model, the first proper subset of elements of the unified model, and the set of boundary conditions; and (ii) simulating, using the second electrical grid simulation model and the second proper subset of elements of the unified model, and the set of boundary conditions.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for simulation of electrical power grid behaviors. In some instances, a data model associated with an electrical power grid is obtained. The data model stores static data and dynamic data that can be continuously integrated into the data model based on data streams obtained from data sources associated with properties of the electrical power grid. A set of interfaces can be instantiated for querying data based on the data model. The querying is related to data from at least one of a planning analysis modeling domain or an operation analysis modeling domain from the data model related to the electrical power grid. A query associated with a first planning operation in the planning analysis modeling domain is executed. The query defines one or more nodes of the electrical power grid and relates to the planning analysis domain.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for mapping an electrical grid are disclosed. A method includes sampling multiple locations within a geographic region, executing a detection process for each location, the detection process including applying the set of images for the location as input to a machine learning (ML) model that is trained to identify electrical grid assets depicted within images taken from a combination of different perspectives and obtaining an output from the machine learning model that indicates whether a same electrical grid asset is identified in each of the images of the location. In response to an ML output that indicates a positive identification of the same electrical grid asset being depicted in a particular set of images of a particular location, the method further includes: selecting a number of sublocations within the region, and executing the detection process for each sublocation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for determining whether a distributed energy resource is connected at a location. Electrical load data is obtained for a location over a time period. The electrical load data is analyzed to determine one or more signals from the electrical load data. The signals are compared to one or more load profiles for the location. Each load profile can indicate one or more baseline electrical patterns for the location. A likelihood that at least one distributed energy resource is in use at the location is determined based on the comparison. In response to determining that the likelihood is more than a threshold, one or more actions are performed.
