FLC Technique in Smart Grid for Demand Side Management

Abstract

The chapter discusses the general characteristics of smart grid, which combines different state-of-the-art technologies intended for operative power distribution when the generation is decentralized. Fault's existence in the power grid is entirely unanticipated. Fuzzy logic is the computational intelligence technique that integrates the knowledge base of experts that is either human or system using the qualitative expression. This technique can successfully be applied for end-user who is a prosumer and aims for low electricity bill as well as provide intelligent decision-making skill in the agents of the multi-agent system. Fuzzy inference system can be efficiently used in such systems due to its capability to deal with imprecision, incomplete data, and its strong knowledge base.
