      Unscheduled power disturbances cause severe consequences for customers and grid operators. To avoid suchevents, it is important to identify the causes and localize the sources of the disturbances in the power distribution network. In this work, we focus on a specific power grid in the Arctic region of Northern Norway that experiences an increased frequency of failures of unspecified origin.
    • Power availability of PV plus thermal batteries in real-world electric power grids 

      Foldvik Eikeland, Odin; Kelsall, Colin C.; Buznitsky, Kyle; Verma, Shomik; Bianchi, Filippo Maria; Chiesa, Matteo; Henry, Asegun (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-07-25)
      As variable renewable energy sources comprise a growing share of total electricity generation, energy storage technologies are becoming increasingly critical for balancing energy generation and demand.<p> <p>In this study, a real-world electricity system was modeled rather than modeling hypothetical future electric power systems where the existing electricity infrastructure are neglected. In ...
    • Predicting Energy Demand in Semi-Remote Arctic Locations 

      Foldvik Eikeland, Odin; Bianchi, Filippo Maria; Chiesa, Matteo; Apostoleris, Harry; Hansen, Morten; Chiou, Yu-Cheng (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-03)
      Forecasting energy demand within a distribution network is essential for developing strategies to manage and optimize available energy resources and the associated infrastructure. In this study, we consider remote communities in the Arctic located at the end of the radial distribution network without alternative energy supply. Therefore, it is crucial to develop an accurate forecasting model to ...
    • Probabilistic forecasts of wind power generation in regions with complex topography using deep learning methods: An Arctic case 

      Foldvik Eikeland, Odin; Hovem, Finn Dag; Olsen, Tom Eirik; Chiesa, Matteo; Bianchi, Filippo Maria (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-27)
      The energy market relies on forecasting capabilities of both demand and power generation that need to be kept in dynamic balance. Nowadays, contracts and auctions of renewable energy in a liberalized electricity market heavily rely on forecasting future power generation. The highly intermittent nature of renewable energy sources increases the uncertainty about future power generation. Since point ...
