    General Context

    Key words: Artificial intelligence, power system, power electronics

    All economic domains should be impacted by artificial intelligence (AI) development. In the domain of power systems, ENTSO-E added AI-based technologies to its roadmap for research, development and innovation for 2024-2034. This internship project, initiated by SuperGrid Institute’s technical management, is part of the process of deployment in the institute. The goal is to assess, through a proof of concept, how an AI-based approach can address a problem in the field of power system planning or operation or in power electronics.
