The abstract proposes a novel approach to evaluating the integration of distributed energy resources into the grid using quasi-static time series simulations. However, traditional power flow solvers face computational and convergence issues as grids expand and operate closer to their limits. Neural power flow solvers offer a promising alternative, but are costly to train. The authors suggest that recently introduced grid foundation models could improve the economic viability of neural power flow solvers by amortizing training costs across various grid operation and planning tasks.

This paper proposes using recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the efficiency of evaluating the integration of distributed energy resources into the power grid. Traditional methods for simulating the grid’s ability to accommodate these new sources of energy are becoming too slow and unreliable as the grid expands and becomes more complex. The authors suggest that AI models, which can be trained once and then fine-tuned for different tasks, could greatly improve the efficiency and affordability of evaluating the grid’s ability to integrate distributed energy resources.
