Blog 5 - Use of machine learning to forecast generation and demand in electrical energy systems
Abdulaziz, 13 October 2023
As the world shifts towards renewable energy sources, grid management encounters unprecedented challenges. The integration of renewables introduces fluctuations in energy production, further complicating the intricate task of maintaining a balance between supply and demand. Machine learning presents a robust solution to address these challenges.

Blog 8 - Steady-state stability analysis of the power electronics system
Hao, 19 February 2024
In response to the UK government's commitment to bring all greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050, converter-based renewable energy sources are gradually replacing conventional synchronous generators, resulting in a gradual transformation of the conventional power grid into a power electronics-based power system.
