Abstract

Real-time monitoring and control are crucial for ensuring the resilient, coordinated, and optimal operation of next-generation power systems, such as virtual power plants and microgrids. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have great potential for improving the effectiveness of monitoring, controlling, optimizing, and managing energy systems. As such, integrating AI into energy systems is seen as a promising path for developing intelligent grids, especially given the rise of distributed and renewable energy sources and the shift toward net-zero systems. This research explores the latest advancements across various areas of energy systems, revealing the current capabilities of intelligent monitoring and fault detection, control and optimization strategies, and energy management systems. The study delves into the key challenges, methods, findings, and research gaps in these areas. It further outlines a framework and the potential benefits of intelligent grid systems, offering multiple directions for future research to address these gaps. Ultimately, this comprehensive review aims to guide industry experts in the practical application of these innovations. • Potential application of AI for intelligent grid systems. • Scopes and trends of the AI-based grid system on different domains. • Exploring intelligent fault detection, control, optimization, and management systems. • Challenges and potential solutions to adopt and implement the AI-based grid systems. • Future research directions based on the development of intelligent technology.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
