Energy and Environmental Situation Awareness

Dear Colleagues,

Due to the rapid development of emerging information and communication technologies as well as advanced metering infrastructure, planning and operation (P&O) costs are an economic factor that energy management (EM) must consider. The P&O level of multi-terminals directly connected to each user determines the power quality of end users. Among multiple P&O technologies, situation awareness (SA) emerges and is gradually integrated into energy management. Facing a high proportion of RES, the adequate monitoring, analysis, and prediction of the energy management operating status are urgent. Therefore, comprehensive SA, which contains detection, comprehension, and projection, becomes a significant guarantee for the optimal operation of EM. Due to the strong adaptability, SA can dynamically evolve with future EM technology development to provide higher quality P&O of EM.
