In this paper, we address the problem of coordinating a set of distributed energy resources (DERs) to regulate voltage in power distribution systems to desired levels. To this end, we formulate the voltage control problem as an optimization…
Distributed energy resources (DER) provide significant value for renewable energy integration in modern power grids. However, unlocking this value requires complex design and coordination. This paper focuses on the emerging {\em transactive…
Real-time coordination of distributed energy resources (DERs) is crucial for regulating the voltage profile in distribution grids. By capitalizing on a scalable neural network (NN) architecture, one can attain decentralized DER decisions to…
High penetrations of intermittent renewable energy resources in the power system require large balancing reserves for reliable operations. Aggregated and coordinated behind-the-meter loads can provide these fast reserves, but represent…
Power distribution networks are increasingly hosting controllable and flexible distributed energy resources (DERs) that, when aggregated, can provide ancillary support to transmission systems. However, existing aggregation schemes often…
Deciding setpoints for distributed energy resources (DERs) via local control rules rather than centralized optimization offers significant autonomy. The IEEE Standard 1547 recommends deciding DER setpoints using Volt/VAR rules. Although…
Modern wireless communication systems necessitate the development of cost-effective resource allocation strategies, while ensuring maximal system performance. While commonly realizable via efficient waterfilling schemes, ergodic-optimal…

We build upon previous work out of UC Berkeley's energy, controls, and applications laboratory (eCal) that developed a model for price prediction of the energy day-ahead market (DAM) and a stochastic load scheduling for distributed energy…
One of the most important challenges in the integration of renewable energy sources into the power grid lies in their `intermittent' nature. The power output of sources like wind and solar varies with time and location due to factors that…
