Abstract
In this paper we present a complete methodology to perform state estimation studies in distribution networks. Due to the peculiarities of these networks the traditional state estimation concept was enlarged in different ways. It includes a load allocation study, as a way to cope with the reduced number of real time measurements in SCADA database. The algorithm estimates binary values of topology variables, due to incomplete or erroneous topology information in the control center and it is able to include data modeled by fuzzy numbers as a way to include fuzzy results of the load allocation procedure or fuzzy assessments from experts. Finally, the paper describes a methodology developed to tune the weights to be used in the state estimation based on a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy inference system. The paper includes a case study based in the IEEE 24 bus system to highlight and illustrate its application in a variety of situations.

Abstract
This text describes a real-world DMS environment in which intelligent tools and techniques such as neural networks, fuzzy sets and meta-heuristics (like evolutionary computing and simulated annealing) have given a strong positive contribution.

Abstract
This paper presents a methodology developed within the SOLARGIS project - a Joule project - aiming at evaluating the potential of integrating renewable forms of energy for dispersed electricity production. With this project we also wanted to demonstrate the efficiency of GIS - Geographical Information Systems - as a tool to analyse the integration of renewable forms of energy. In this paper we present the methodologies developed to identify renewable resources in a given geographic region, to detect high potential areas for wind farm siting and to evaluate the efficiency and market of isolated systems to be used for dispersed rural electrification. In this last methodology we used fuzzy models to describe the uncertainties in demand and cost values.

Abstract
This paper presents a Monte-Carlo algorithm considering loads defined by fuzzy numbers. In this methodology states are sampled according to the probabilistic models governing the life cycle of system components while fuzzy concepts are used to model uncertainty related to future load behavior. This model can be used to evaluate generation/transmission power system reliability for long term planning studies as one uses the more adequate uncertainty models for each type of data. For each sampled state a Fuzzy Optimal Power Flow is run so that one builds its power not supplied membership function. The paper proposes new indices reflecting the integration of probabilistic models and fuzzy concepts and discusses the application of variance reduction techniques if loads are defined by fuzzy numbers. A case-study based on the IEEE 30 bus system illustrates this methodology.

Abstract
In Walrasian markets, an auctioneer proposes a price to the market participants, who react by revealing the quantities they are willing to buy or sell at this price. The auctioneer then proposes new prices to improve the demand and supply match until the equilibrium is reached. This market, common for stock exchanges, has also been proposed for electricity markets like power electricity exchanges, where iterations among auctioneer and market participants take place before the interval settlement period (ISP) until supply and demand match and a stable price is reached. We propose a Walrasian design for local electricity markets where the iterations between auctioneer and market participants happen in real time, so previous imbalances are used to correct the proposed price for the next ISP. The designs are simulated to test convergence and their capability of achieving efficient dynamic prices.

Abstract
Energy storage systems, integrated in Renewable Energy Communities (REC), are enabling the development of operation strategies together with Photovoltaic (PV) systems. Additionally, Local Energy Markets (LEM) are emerging mechanisms to enable local energy trading in RECs, the integration of storage systems can increase the community energy savings and profits. In this context, a market environment was modelled as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). In this scope, an Agent Based Model (ABM) using the Q-Learning mechanism was used to implement and to simulate a LEM and its interaction with the Wholesale Market (WSM), also considering an architecture with storage systems. The developed model was tested considering real data regarding energy consumption and PV generation. The paper describes and discusses the obtained market strategy and the profits that can be obtained with this approach.
