An Analysis of the Operation of Distribution Networks Using Kernel Density Estimators

Efficiency in the operation of distribution networks is one of the commonly recognised goals of the Smart Grid aspect. Novel approaches are needed to assess the level of energy loss and reliability in electricity distribution. Transmission of electricity in the power system is invariably accompanied...
