Due to the illegal use of electricity, non-technical losses are exponentially increasing in electricity distribution systems day by day. With the debut of smart meters in the smart grid, new electricity theft attacks are welcomed. The investigation of abnormal electricity consumption patterns helps in detecting electricity thieves. Moreover, existi...

Smart Grid (SG) is a modernized grid that provides efficient, reliable and economic energy to the consumers. Energy is the most important resource in the world and almost everything relies on it. As smart devices are increasing dramatically with the rapid increase in population, there is a need for an efficient energy distribution mechanism. Furthe...

Accurate electricity consumption forecasting in the power grids ensures efficient generation and distribution of electricity. Keeping this in mind, the paper introduces a novel deep learning model, termed Gated-FCN, for short-term load forecasting. The key idea is to introduce an automated feature selection and deep learning model for forecasting....

The significance of electricity cannot be overlooked as all fields of life like material production, health care, educational sector, etc., depend upon it to render consistent and high-quality services, increase productivity and business continuity. To this end, energy operators have experienced a continuous increasing trend in the electricity dema...
