Load profile selection in adaptive dynamic islanding using batteries

Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer program products for load profile selection in islanding using batteries are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes generating a usage pattern model for a battery based on (i) information pertaining to consumers of the battery, (ii) information pertaining to usage of the battery, and (iii) information pertaining to network outages, wherein the network is linked to the battery; selecting a subset of the consumers of the battery to supply energy from the battery, during a network outage, based on (i) the usage pattern model, (ii) the lifespan of the battery, (iii) performance of the network, (iv) historical consumption data attributed to each of the consumers, and (v) a predetermined minimum amount of energy required to be supplied to the consumers during a network outage; and outputting instructions to activate and/or deactivate distribution components within the network based on said selecting.
