The coordination between TSO and DSO in the context of energy transition - A review

Nowadays, energy transition is ongoing in many countries, aiming to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and CO2 emissions. Besides the positive impacts on the environment, this transition brings technical challenges to the system operators, such as the intricacies of energy system integration, diminishing uncertainty, and incentivizing customers with advanced transaction models. The coordination between the Transmission system operator (TSO) and the Distribution system operator (DSO) is one of the most important aspects of encountering these obstacles. This coordination enhances the utilization of flexibility from Distributed energy resources (DERs) by incentivizing the market parties with better willingness to pay schemes. This paper provides an overview of the coordination schemes (CS), their classification, assessment of the current situation and the challenges associated with applying these schemes in practical context. The main purpose is to investigate the most effective way for TSO/DSOs to use the flexibility resource to maintain the balancing of the entire system while ensuring no congestion occurs in the network. A broad range of possible coordination schemes along with exploiting flexibility services is presented and the pros and cons are analyzed. Additionally, the study presents a general scenario that describes the interaction between the operators and the third party in providing service to the balancing market, considering cases with and without coordination.

Balancing service provision by EV aggregator in different TSO-DSO coordination schemes

The increasing penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in the distribution system has led to the emergence of a new market actor - the aggregator. The aggregator serves as a facilitator, enabling flexibility asset owners to get access to different markets. In which, EVs aggregators are gaining more attention due to their expanding use and potential to provide services in various types of markets, particularly in the reserve market. Currently, TSO indirectly utilizes these resources under the management of the distribution system operators (DSO), which can negatively impact the distribution grid. Conversely, adjustments from DSOs can impact service provision to TSO due to the shortage of TSO usage information. These factors highlight the importance of evaluating the service provision from aggregators under different TSO-DSO coordination schemes. This paper focuses on the provision of flexibility from electric vehicles (EVs) aggregators for balancing service in the TSO-DSO hybrid-managed and compares it with the DSO-managed coordination schemes. The behavior of aggregators reacting to price fluctuations and TSO requests under different coordination schemes and simulation scenarios is thoroughly evaluated. Additionally, their impact on the grid is analyzed through the DSO's congestion management process and validated using data from a real part of the Dutch distribution network. Results find that the hybrid-managed coordination scheme gives more benefit to the aggregator than the DSO-managed scheme and the EVs aggregator will gain more profit in winter than summer due to more upward regulation service is needed.

The doctor will polygraph you now: ethical concerns with AI for fact-checking patients

Artificial intelligence (AI) methods have been proposed for the prediction of social behaviors which could be reasonably understood from patient-reported information. This raises novel ethical concerns about respect, privacy, and control over patient data. Ethical concerns surrounding clinical AI systems for social behavior verification can be divided into two main categories: (1) the potential for inaccuracies/biases within such systems, and (2) the impact on trust in patient-provider relationships with the introduction of automated AI systems for fact-checking, particularly in cases where the data/models may contradict the patient. Additionally, this report simulated the misuse of a verification system using patient voice samples and identified a potential LLM bias against patient-reported information in favor of multi-dimensional data and the outputs of other AI methods (i.e., AI self-trust). Finally, recommendations were presented for mitigating the risk that AI verification methods will cause harm to patients or undermine the purpose of the healthcare system.

Voice EHR: Introducing Multimodal Audio Data for Health

Artificial intelligence (AI) models trained on audio data may have the potential to rapidly perform clinical tasks, enhancing medical decision-making and potentially improving outcomes through early detection. Existing technologies depend on limited datasets collected with expensive recording equipment in high-income countries, which challenges deployment in resource-constrained, high-volume settings where audio data may have a profound impact on health equity. This report introduces a novel data type and a corresponding collection system that captures health data through guided questions using only a mobile/web application. The app facilitates the collection of an audio electronic health record (Voice EHR) which may contain complex biomarkers of health from conventional voice/respiratory features, speech patterns, and spoken language with semantic meaning and longitudinal context, potentially compensating for the typical limitations of unimodal clinical datasets. This report presents the application used for data collection, initial experiments on data quality, and case studies which demonstrate the potential of voice EHR to advance the scalability/diversity of audio AI.
