The high penetration of distributed generators (DGs) and the large-scale charging loads deteriorate the operational status of flexible distribution networks (FDNs). A soft open point (SOP) can deal with operational issues, such as voltage violations and the high electricity purchasing cost of charging stations. However, the absence of accurate parameters poses challenges to model-based methods. This paper proposes a data-driven operation method of FDNs with charging loads. First, a data-driven model-free adaptive predictive control (MFAPC) approach is proposed to fully involve charging loads in the control of FDN without accurate network parameters. Then, a multi-timescale coordination control model of an SOP with charging loads is established to satisfy the demand of charging loads and improve the control performance. The effectiveness of the proposed method is numerically demonstrated on the modified IEEE 33-node distribution network. The results indicate that the proposed method can effectively reduce the electricity purchasing cost of charging stations and improve the operational performance of FDNs.

Motivated by the progress in artificial intelligence and edge computing, this paper proposes a real-time distributed computing model for low-voltage flow data in digital power grids under autonomous and controllable environments. The model utilizes edge computing through wireless offloading to efficiently process and analyze data generated by low-voltage devices in the power grid. Firstly, we evaluate the performance of the system under consideration by measuring its outage probability, utilizing both the received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and communication and computing latency. Subsequently, we analyze the system’s outage probability by deriving an analytical expression. To this end, we utilize the Gauss-Chebyshev approximation to provide an approximate closed-form expression. The results of our experimental evaluation demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model in achieving real-time processing of low-voltage flow data in digital power grids. Our model provides an efficient and practical solution for the processing of low-voltage flow data, making it a valuable contribution to the field of digital power grids.

In the era of big data, the value of data is infinite. With the development of the Internet of Things, everything is interconnected, and the sharing and circulation of data are particularly important. This paper was aimed at studying the data sharing system based on blockchain and big data technology. Based on blockchain and big data technology, this paper proposes a data-sharing system based on an HDFS file system. And it strengthens the security of data sharing based on blockchain technology, proposes a security key for industrial data, and greatly upgrades the security of data sharing. Experiments in this paper have proved that the data-sharing system in this paper has strong robustness, and choosing the appropriate k and n can take into account both the computational overhead and security, such as (3, 5), (5, 10), and (6, 10).
