The novel physics-informed diffusion model presented in this paper addresses data scarcity and privacy concerns by generating synthetic net load data. The framework embeds physical models within denoising networks, allowing for versatility in unforeseen scenarios. A conditional denoising neural network is designed to jointly train parameters of the transition kernel and physics-informed function. The proposed method is validated using real-world smart meter data from Pecan Street and compared to state-of-the-art generative models, including GANs, VAEs, normalizing flows, and a well-calibrated baseline diffusion model. Evaluation metrics demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms others by at least 20%.

This paper creates a new way to make fake net load data that is realistic and follows physical rules. This helps with problems of having too little data or keeping sensitive information private. The method uses both physical models and denoising networks, making it flexible for different situations. The authors tested their method using real data from smart meters and compared it to other popular methods. They found that their approach did better than others in terms of accuracy and variety.
