Optimizing Energy efficient in Smart Grids Using Al-Based Predictive Load Management Technique

Abstract

This study investigates the optimization of energy efficiency in smart grids through the application of artificial intelligence (AI)-based predictive load management techniques, utilizing a qualitative methodology centered on literature review and library research. Smart grids represent a transformative approach to electricity distribution, integrating renewable energy sources and advanced communication technologies to enhance reliability and sustainability. AI-driven predictive load management emerges as a pivotal strategy, enabling dynamic forecasting and real-time adjustment of energy consumption patterns to balance demand and supply effectively. Through a comprehensive analysis of scholarly articles, reports, and case studies, this research synthesizes current advancements, challenges, and best practices related to AI algorithms deployed for load forecasting, demand response, and energy optimization in smart grid systems. The findings reveal that AI techniques, such as machine learning, deep learning, and reinforcement learning, significantly improve load prediction accuracy and facilitate proactive management of energy resources, thereby reducing operational costs and environmental impact. Furthermore, the study highlights the role of AI in integrating distributed energy resources and enhancing grid resilience. Despite promising outcomes, challenges including data privacy, algorithmic transparency, and scalability persist. This paper underscores the importance of continuous research and innovation in AI-driven load management to realize the full potential of energy-efficient smart grids. The qualitative insights provide a foundational understanding for policymakers, grid operators, and researchers aiming to develop sustainable and intelligent energy systems.
