Abstract
Abstract With electricity market reform and the application scenarios of renewable energy and power demand response, the power system presents the characteristics of openness, uncertainty and complexity. The construction and application of smart power grid have become a trend. The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in smart grid provides powerful technical support for digital power network. Scenarios of AI in smart grid include power supply, power system optimization, power user behaviour analysis, fault diagnosis, etc. Although the application of AI in the smart grid faces many problems, such as insufficient data sample accumulation, insufficient reliability, imperfect infrastructure, lack of special algorithm for power industry, etc., on the whole, AI is a powerful tool to push smart grid into the new generation of power systems and energy networks.
