Lyapunov Stability of Smart Inverters Using Linearized DistFlow Approximation
Shammya Shananda Saha, Daniel Arnold, Anna Scaglione +4
Fast-acting smart inverters that utilize preset operating conditions to determine real and reactive power injection/consumption can create voltage instabilities (over-voltage, volt…
A Secure Distributed Ledger for Transactive Energy: The Electron Volt Exchange (EVE) Blockchain
Shammya Saha, Nikhil Ravi, Kari Hreinsson +3
The adoption of blockchain for Transactive Energy has gained significant momentum as it allows mutually non-trusting agents to trade energy services in a trustless energy market. R…
Deep Reinforcement Learning for DER Cyber-Attack Mitigation
Ciaran Roberts, Sy-Toan Ngo, Alexandre Milesi +7
The increasing penetration of DER with smart-inverter functionality is set to transform the electrical distribution network from a passive system, with fixed injection/consumption,…
Integrating Hardware Security into a Blockchain-Based Transactive Energy Platform
Shammya Shananda Saha, Christopher Gorog, Adam Moser +2
This applied research paper introduces a novel framework for integrating hardware security and blockchain functionality with grid-edge devices to establish a distributed cyber-secu…
Keeping Them Honest: a Trustless Multi-Agent Algorithm to Validate Transactions Cleared on Blockchain using Physical Sensors
Nikhil Ravi, Shammya Saha, Anna Scaglione +1
In recent years, many Blockchain based frameworks for transacting commodities on a congestible network have been proposed. In particular, as the number of controllable grid connect…
A Framework for Generating Synthetic Distribution Feeders using OpenStreetMap
Shammya Shananda Saha, Eran Schweitzer, Anna Scaglione +1
This work proposes a framework to generate synthetic distribution feeders mapped to real geo-spatial topologies using available OpenStreetMap data. The synthetic power networks can…
