Low voltage distribution networks (LVDNs) suffer from limited visibility due to sparse or nonexistent measurement systems, leaving distribution network service providers with incomplete data. Maintenance activities, such as transformer…

Mitigating Supply-Demand mismatch is critical for smooth power grid operation. Traditionally, load curtailment techniques such as Demand Response (DR) have been used for this purpose. However, these cannot be the only component of a…
