Methods and tools to support monitoring and assessment of the efficiency of distribution systems in the context of Smart Cities:
– Energy Monitoring: data driven models for demand monitoring of buildings and equipments, online fault detection and diagnosis. Demand and generation forecasting. Definition of indices and metrics for benchmarking. User profiling and non invasive load disaggregation.
– Urban Resources Management: use of historical data to support predictions and decision making. Pattern recognition algorithms to identify relevant and emergent behaviours. Resource allocation and optimization methods and tools.
– Smart grids and distribution systems: fault detection and pinpoint location for distribution lines. Multivariate statistical analysis of measurements and reconstruction. Optimisation methods for resource allocation and location problems in smart grids (demand and generation)
