Spatial demand forecasting based on smart meter data for improving local energy self‐sufficiency in smart cities

Abstract The use of distributed energy resources (DERs) in a city contributes to the net zero CO2 of a city. However, the spatially uneven distribution of power demand and surplus electricity causes congestion in the grid system, making wide‐area operation difficult. The concept of local energy self...
