Special Session 1
AI+ Applications in Planning, Operation, and Control of New Power Systems
The rapid development and wide application of artificial intelligence, communication technology, multi-energy complementary technology, and distributed power generation technology have made the popularity of new power systems increase rapidly across the world, supporting and promoting the adjustment and upgrading of the world’s energy structures.With the proposal of a carbon neutrality goal and the continuous improvement of the penetration rate of renewable energy, traditional optimization methods are difficult to adapt to the increasingly complex energy environment and the requirements of new power systems ‘intelligent decision making. Meanwhile, the continuous refinement of electricity and carbon market mechanisms necessitates stricter requirements for the planning and operation of new power systems. To enhance self-balancing capability and energy efficiency, the special session seeks original research and review papers from academia, industry, and government institutions related to the optimal planning, operation, and control of new power systems. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:
1. AI+ application in planning of New Power Systems
2. AI+ application in operation of New Power Systems
3. AI+ application in control of New Power Systems
4. Multi-energy complementary technology in New Power Systems
5. Technology to enhance self-balancing capability and energy efficiency in New Power Systems
6. Source network load storage integration
