A Mining Framework to Detect Non-technical Losses in Power Utilities
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with the characterization of customers in power companies in order to detect consumption Non-Technical Losses (NTL). A new framework is presented, to find relevant knowledge about the particular characteristics of the electric power customers. The authors uses two innovative statistical estimators to weigh variability and trend of the customer consumption. The final classification model is presented by a rule set, based on discovering association rules in the data. The work is illustrated by a case study considering a real

A New multi attribute Decision making Reliability Centered Maintenance in Power Transmission Systems
The present context of the electric industry, characterized by competitive markets, privatization, and regulatory of technical requirements forces the power utilities to optimize their asset management practices and develop the requisite decision plans techno-economically. Practically approaching, this paper devises a new support tool based on a multiattribute decision making (MADM) framework i...
متن کاملA real application on non-technical losses detection: the MIDAS Project
The MIDAS project began at 2006 as collaboration between Endesa, Sadiel and the University of Seville. The objective of the MIDAS project is the detection of Non-Technical Losses (NTLs) on power utilities. The NTLs represent the non-billed energy due to faults or illegal manipulations in clients’ facilities. Initially, research lines study the application of techniques of data mining and neural...
متن کاملDetection of frauds and other non-technical losses in a power utility using Pearson coefficient, Bayesian networks and decision trees
For the electrical sector, minimizing non-technical losses is a very important task because it has a high impact in the company profits. Thus, this paper describes some new advances for the detection of non-technical losses in the customers of one of the most important power utilities of Spain and Latin America: Endesa Company. The study is within the framework of the MIDAS project that is bein...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for Optimum Voltage and Reactive Power Control for Minimizing Transmission Lines Losses
Reactive power dispatch for voltage profile modification has been of interest Abstract to powerr utilities. Usually local bus voltages can be altered by changing generator voltages, reactive shunts, ULTC transformers and SVCs. Determination of optimum values for control parameters, however, is not simple for modern power system networks. Heuristic and rather intelligent algorithms have to be so...
متن کاملReduction of Power Losses in Distribution Systems
Losses reduction initiatives in distribution systems have been activated due to the increasing cost of supplying electricity, the shortage in fuel with ever-increasing cost to produce more power, and the global warming concerns. These initiatives have been introduced to the utilities in shape of incentives and penalties. Recently, the electricity distribution companies in Oman have been incenti...
