Making PV system in distribution networks cost-effective and greener

The rapid deployment of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in distribution networks, while indicative of the desire to move away from fossil fuels, has created new challenges due to the bi-directional power flow and power fluctuations of PV.

Professor Tapan’s research team aims to provide a more cost-effective way to monitor and predict the operating conditions of the distribution network by using high precision distribution Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) through AI/ML/DS techniques.
