Publication number: 20230299578Abstract: Systems and methods comprising a metering device located on an electricity distribution grid, the metering device comprising one or more processors and memory. The metering device can detect a drop in characteristic of electricity below a threshold indicating a fault on the electricity distribution grid. The metering device can generate, responsive to the drop in the characteristic of electricity below the threshold, a time series of a rate of change of the characteristic of electricity for a predetermined number of cycles subsequent to the detection of the drop. The metering device can determine, based on a comparison of the time series of the rate of change with a predetermined pattern, a location of the metering device on the electricity distribution grid relative to a location of the fault on the electricity distribution grid.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2023Publication date: September 21, 2023Applicant: Utilidata, Inc.Inventors: Taylor Spalt, Ning Li, Marissa Hummon

Patent number: 11709470Abstract: Systems and methods are directed controlling components of a utility grid. The system can receive signals. The system can determine one or more statistical metrics based on the signals. The system can generate an input matrix. The system can input the input matrix into a machine learning model. The system can predict, based on the input matrix and via the machine learning model, the value for the signal of the utility grid at a time period for which the value is not provided in the input matrix. The system can provide a command to control a component of the utility grid responsive to the value for the signal of the utility grid predicted by the machine learning model.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2021Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Utilidata, Inc.Inventors: Taylor Spalt, Ning Li, Marissa Hummon, Lobsang Lama

Publication number: 20230187934Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to controlling components of a utility grid. The system can receive data samples including signals detected at one or more portions of a utility grid. The system can construct a matrix having a first dimension and a second dimension. The system can train a machine learning model based on the matrix to predict values for signals of the utility grid not provided in the matrix. The system can receive bounds for one or more input variables, constraints on one or more output variables, and a performance objective for the utility grid. The system can determine, based on the machine learning model and via an optimization technique, an adjustment to a component of the utility grid that satisfies the performance objective. The system can provide the adjustment to the component of the utility grid to satisfy the performance obj ective.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2023Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: Utilidata, Inc.Inventors: Taylor Spalt, Ning Li, Marissa Hummon, Brandon Thayer
