In addition, currently, the electric utilities must comply with new expectations for their operations, and address new challenges such as energy efficiency regulations and guidelines, possibility of economic recessions, volatility of fuel prices, new user profiles and demands of regulators. In order to meet all these emerging economic and regulatory realities, the electric utilities operating SGs must be able to determine and meet load, implement new technologies that can effect energy sales and interact with their customers for their purchases of electricity. In this respect, load forecasting which has traditionally been done mostly at city or country level can address such issues vital to the electric utilities. In this paper, an artificial neural network based energy consumption forecasting system is proposed and the efficiency of the proposed system is shown with the results of a set of simulation studies. The proposed system can provide valuable inputs to smart grid applications. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArtificial Neural NetworkDemand ForecastingOptimizationSmart GridAgricultural RobotsElectric Power Transmission NetworksElectric UtilitiesEnergy EfficiencyEnergy UtilizationForecastingNeural NetworksOptimizationPurchasingRoboticsSalesDemand ForecastingEconomic RecessionForecasting SystemLoad ForecastingSimulation StudiesSmart GridSmart Grid ApplicationsUser ProfileSmart Power GridsPI-Controlled ANN-Based Energy Consumption Forecasting for Smart GridsConference Object10.5220/00055168011001162-s2.0-84943574096
