A continuous and reliable supply of electricity is necessary for the functioning of today’s modern and advanced society. Since the early to mid1980s, most of the effort in power systems analysis has turned away from the methodology of formal mathematical modelling which came from the areas of operations research, control theory and numerical analysis to the less rigorous and less tedious techniques of artificial intelligence (AI). Power systems keep on increasing on the basis of geographical regions, assets additions, and introduction of new technologies in generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. AI techniques have become popular for solving different problems in power systems like control, planning, scheduling, forecast, etc. These techniques can deal with difficult tasks faced by applications in modern large power systems with even more interconnections installed to meet the increasing load demand. The application of these techniques has been successful in many areas of power system engineering.

Electric energy utilization is the type of energy consumption that uses power. Electricity utilization is the actual power demand made on current electricity supply. Electric and electronic devices absorb electric power to bring about expected turnout (i.e., light, heat, motion, etc.). Majority of the house members cannot rely on their usage of electricity and the electric bills. Unexpectedly it's always high than what they've expected even after careful usage of it. To overcome this problem, an automatic alert system is to be set with the digital meter for which a threshold limit of a day is given. Once the threshold limit has been reached, an automatic alert is sent to the authentic person indicating that they've reached the limit. This proposed technology would help the person to have an idea of usage of electricity in their day to day life, which would help them to limit their usage.

The Impact of Digital Media on the Decentralization of Power and the Erosion ...ijtsrd
The impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has gained considerable attention in recent years. The adoption of digital technologies and the internet has resulted in declining influence and power for traditional gatekeepers such as publishing houses and news organizations. Simultaneously, digital media has facilitated the emergence of new voices and players in the media industry. Digital medias impact on power decentralization and gatekeeper erosion is visible in several ways. One significant aspect is the democratization of information, which enables anyone with an internet connection to publish and share content globally, leading to citizen journalism and bypassing traditional gatekeepers. Another aspect is the disruption of conventional media industry business models, as traditional organizations struggle to adjust to the decrease in advertising revenue and the rise of digital platforms. Alternative business models, such as subscription models and crowdfunding, have become more prevalent, leading to the emergence of new players. Overall, the impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has brought about significant changes in the media landscape and the way information is shared. Further research is required to fully comprehend the implications of these changes and their impact on society.

The Role of Mentoring and Its Influence on the Effectiveness of the Teaching ...ijtsrd
This paper reports on a study which was conducted to investigate the role of mentoring and its influence on the effectiveness of the teaching of Physics in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. The study adopted the convergent parallel mixed methods design, focusing on respondents in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected, analysed separately, and the results were compared to see if the findings confirm or disconfirm each other. The quantitative analysis found that majority of the respondents 72 of Physics teachers affirmed that they had more experienced colleagues as mentors to help build their confidence, improve their teaching, and help them improve their effectiveness and efficiency in guiding learners’ achievements. Only 28 of the respondents disagreed with these statements. With majority respondents 72 agreeing with the statements, it implies that in most secondary schools, experienced Physics teachers act as mentors to build teachers’ confidence in teaching and improving students’ learning. The interview qualitative data analysis summarized how secondary school Principals use meetings with mentors and mentees to promote mentorship in the school milieu.

Design Simulation and Hardware Construction of an Arduino Microcontroller Bas...ijtsrd
This study primarily focuses on the design of a high side buck converter using an Arduino microcontroller. The converter is specifically intended for use in DC DC applications, particularly in standalone solar PV systems where the PV output voltage exceeds the load or battery voltage. To evaluate the performance of the converter, simulation experiments are conducted using Proteus Software. These simulations provide insights into the input and output voltages, currents, powers, and efficiency under different state of charge SoC conditions of a 12V,70Ah rechargeable lead acid battery. Additionally, the hardware design of the converter is implemented, and practical data is collected through operation, monitoring, and recording. By comparing the simulation results with the practical results, the efficiency and performance of the designed converter are assessed. The findings indicate that while the buck converter is suitable for practical use in standalone PV systems, its efficiency is compromised due to a lower output current.

Sustainable Energy by Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O. Sadikuijtsrd
Energy becomes sustainable if it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Some of the definitions of sustainable energy include the considerations of environmental aspects such as greenhouse gas emissions, social, and economic aspects such as energy poverty. Generally far more sustainable than fossil fuel are renewable energy sources such as wind, hydroelectric power, solar, and geothermal energy sources. Worthy of note is that some renewable energy projects, like the clearing of forests to produce biofuels, can cause severe environmental damage. The sustainability of nuclear power which is a low carbon source is highly debated because of concerns about radioactive waste, nuclear proliferation, and accidents. The switching from coal to natural gas has environmental benefits, including a lower climate impact, but could lead to delay in switching to more sustainable options. “Carbon capture and storage” can be built into power plants to remove the carbon dioxide CO2 emissions, but this technology is expensive and has rarely been implemented. Leading non renewable energy sources around the world is fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Nuclear energy is usually considered another non renewable energy source, although nuclear energy itself is a renewable energy source, but the material used in nuclear power plants is not. The paper addresses the issue of sustainable energy, its attendant benefits to the future generation, and humanity in general. Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O.

Concepts for Sudan Survey Act Implementations Executive Regulations and Stand...ijtsrd
This paper aims to outline the executive regulations, survey standards, and specifications required for the implementation of the Sudan Survey Act, and for regulating and organizing all surveying work activities in Sudan. The act has been discussed for more than 5 years. The Land Survey Act was initiated by the Sudan Survey Authority and all official legislations were headed by the Sudan Ministry of Justice till it was issued in 2022. The paper presents conceptual guidelines to be used for the Survey Act implementation and to regulate the survey work practice, standardizing the field surveys, processing, quality control, procedures, and the processes related to survey work carried out by the stakeholders and relevant authorities in Sudan. The conceptual guidelines are meant to improve the quality and harmonization of geospatial data and to aid decision making processes as well as geospatial information systems. The established comprehensive executive regulations will govern and regulate the implementation of the Sudan Survey Geomatics Act in all surveying and mapping practices undertaken by the Sudan Survey Authority SSA and state local survey departments for public or private sector organizations. The targeted standards and specifications include the reference frame, projection, coordinate systems, and the guidelines and specifications that must be followed in the field of survey work, processes, and mapping products. In the last few decades, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of geomatics activities and measurements on the Earths surface in space and time, together with observing and mapping the changes. In such cases, data must be captured promptly, standardized, and obtained with more accuracy and specified in much detail. The paper will also highlight the current situation in Sudan, the degree to which survey standards are used, the problems encountered, and the errors that arise from not using the standards and survey specifications.

Towards the Implementation of the Sudan Interpolated Geoid Model Khartoum Sta...ijtsrd
The discussions between ellipsoid and geoid have invoked many researchers during the recent decades, especially during the GNSS technology era, which had witnessed a great deal of development but still geoid undulation requires more investigations. To figure out a solution for Sudans local geoid, this research has tried to intake the possibility of determining the geoid model by following two approaches, gravimetric and geometrical geoid model determination, by making use of GNSS leveling benchmarks at Khartoum state. The Benchmarks are well distributed in the study area, in which, the horizontal coordinates and the height above the ellipsoid have been observed by GNSS while orthometric heights were carried out using precise leveling. The Global Geopotential Model GGM represented in EGM2008 has been exploited to figure out the geoid undulation at the benchmarks in the study area. This is followed by a fitting process, that has been done to suit the geoid undulation data which has been computed using GNSS leveling data and geoid undulation inspired by the EGM2008. Two geoid surfaces were created after the fitting process to ensure that they are identical and both of them could be counted for getting the same geoid undulation with an acceptable accuracy. In this respect, statistical operation played an important role in ensuring the consistency and integrity of the model by applying cross validation techniques splitting the data into training and testing datasets for building the geoid model and testing its eligibility. The geometrical solution for geoid undulation computation has been utilized by applying straightforward equations that facilitate the calculation of the geoid undulation directly through applying statistical techniques for the GNSS leveling data of the study area to get the common equation parameters values that could be utilized to calculate geoid undulation of any position in the study area within the claimed accuracy. Both systems were checked and proved eligible to be used within the study area with acceptable accuracy which may contribute to solving the geoid undulation problem in the Khartoum area, and be further generalized to determine the geoid model over the entire country, and this could be considered in the future, for regional and continental geoid model.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

speech recognition, decision-making, and language
translation. The ability of machines to process natural
language, to learn, to plan makes it possible for new
tasks to be performed by intelligent systems. The
main purpose of AI is to mimic the cognitive function
of human beings and perform activities that would
typically be performed by a human being. Without
being taught by humans, machines use their own
experience to solve a problem.
AI is stand-alone independent electronic entity that
functions much like human expert. Today, AI is
integrated into our daily lives in several forms, such
as personal assistants, automated mass transportation,
aviation, computer gaming, facial recognition at
passport control, voice recognition on virtual
assistants, driverless cars, companion robots, etc. AI
is not a single technology but a range of
computational models and algorithms.
Some forms of AI that are most commonly used in
electrical and computer engineering include the
following [4,5]:
Expert systems: They solve problems with an
inference engine that draws from a knowledge
base equipped with information about a
specialized domain, mainly in the form of if-then
rules. Expert systems are the earliest and most
extensive, the most active and most fruitful area.
Fuzzy logic: This makes it possible to create rules
for how machines respond to inputs that account
for a continuum of possible conditions, rather
than straightforward binary.
Neural networks: These are specific types of
machine learning systems that consist of artificial
synapses designed to imitate the structure and
function of brains. They are similar to the human
brain. They are made up of artificial neurons, take
in multiple inputs, and produce a single output.
The network observes and learns as the synapses
transmit data to one another, processing
information as it passes through multiple layers.
Machine learning: This includes a broad range
of algorithms and statistical models that make it
possible for systems to find patterns, draw
inferences, and learn to perform tasks without
specific instructions. Machine learning is a
process that involves the application of AI to
automatically perform a specific task without
explicitly programming it. ML techniques may
result in data insights that increase production
efficiency. Today, artificial intelligence is narrow
and mainly based on machine learning.
Deep learning: This is a form of machine
learning based on artificial neural networks. Deep
learning architectures are able to process
hierarchies of increasingly abstract features,
making them especially useful for purposes like
speech and image recognition and natural
language processing. Deep learning networks can
deal with complex non-linear problems.
Natural Language Processors: For AI to be
useful to us humans, it needs to be able to
communicate with us in our language. Computer
programs can translate or interpret language as it
is spoken by normal people.
Robots: These are computer-based programmable
machines that have physical manipulators and
sensors. Sensors can monitor temperature,
humidity, pressure, time, record data, and make
critical decisions in some cases. Robots have
moved from science fiction to your local hospital.
In jobs with repetitive and monotonous functions
they might even completely replace humans.
Robotics and autonomous systems are regarded as
the fourth industrial revolution.
These AI tools are illustrated in Figure 2 [6]. Each AI
tool has its own advantages. Using a combination of
these models, rather than a single model, is
recommended. AI systems are designed to make
decisions using real-time data. They have the ability
to learn and adapt as they make decisions.
AI IN SMART GRID
Like other industries, the power sector has been
inundated by AI-enabled technologies. To support the
existing systems and to extend the flexibility and
applicability of smart grids, AI has been naturally
adapted. As a result, large regional grids will be
replaced by microgrids that manage local energy
demand.
Researchers at Argonne National Laboratory (the first
US national laboratory) are developing new ways to
extract insights from the massive data on the electric
grid, with the intent of ensuring greater reliability,
resilience, and efficiency. They are working on
optimization models that use machine learning, to
simulate the electric system and the severity of various
problems [7].
Some of the adapted AI techniques in the smart grid
include [8]:
Managing the grid users and controllers
System based operation strategies for the grid
Power supply optimization
Consensus-based intelligent distribution
techniques

Integrating privacy into the smart grid.
APPLICATIONS OF AI IN SMART GRID
Artificial Intelligence is everywhere. It is the fastest
growing branch of the high-tech industry. AI’s vast
potential has motivated several initiatives by utilities,
government agencies, and academia. The US
Department of Energy (DOE) recently established a
new Artificial Intelligence and Technology Office
(AITO) to coordinate the agency’s AI development,
delivery, and adoption [6]. In September 2017, the
DOE funded researchers at Stanford University to use
artificial intelligence to improve grid stability. The
UK’s National Grid collaborated with DeepMind to
add AI technology to the country’s electricity system.
The German government sees AI as a key strategy for
mastering some of our greatest challenges such as
climate change and pollution.
AI is becoming more and more important in the
energy industry. Typical areas of application are
autonomous grids, smart meters, energy consumption,
electricity trading, failure management, and energy
storage. These applications are discussed as follows
[9-11].
Autonomous Grid: In the US, the DOE is
developing an autonomous grid using AI. With
the power grids now collecting energy from
different sources and the increasing
decentralization of the grids, operating the grids
has become more complex. This requires
analyzing massive data. Artificial Intelligence
helps process this data as quickly and efficiently
as possible, thereby bringing stability and
efficiency.
Smart Meters: A smart meter is a high-tech
meter that measures electricity consumption and
provides additional information to the utility
company unlike the conventional, analog meter.
Smart meters (SMs) are essentially digital meters
that read remotely over a secure wireless network.
They are an important component of the smart
grid system. They will be able to constantly
monitor demand and supply of customers. These
smart meters process information that can be
related to a person and be privacy sensitive. With
smart metering, one can monitor every appliance,
providing the homeowner with a comprehensive
picture of their energy usage [12].
Energy Consumption: In addition to making the
power grid smart, flexible, and autonomous, AI
algorithms help utilities and energy companies
understand and optimize user’s behavior and
manage energy consumption. In a smart
networked home, the networked devices react to
prices on the electricity market and adapt to
household usage accordingly. By monitoring the
energy consumption pattern of individuals and
businesses, AI companies can offer solutions to
optimize usage, save electricity, and reduce costs.
For example, SmartTthermostat Nest adapts
temperatures according to user behavior to reduce
energy consumption.
Electricity Trading: In electricity trading, AI
helps improve forecasts. Machine Learning and
Neural Networks play an important role in
improving forecasts in the energy industry.
Failure management: Without regular checks on
power equipment, equipment failures are
common. Using AI to observe equipment and
detect failures before they happen can save
money, time, and lives.
Energy Storage: The Smart grid with energy
storage will continuously collect massive data to
make timely decisions on how best to allocate
energy resources. Combined with other
technologies such as big data, the cloud and the
Internet of things (IoT), energy storage with AI
can play an important role in power grid
management. A smart grid with energy storage is
able to use energy sources in the most efficient
way by better integrating renewable resources.
These applications are simply a taste of what is
ultimately possible. There are many more
applications of AI in smart grid or energy industry
such as energy management, managing electric
vehicles, network planning, fraud detection, load
forecasting, stability analysis, security assessment,
stability assessment, fault diagnosis, fault prediction,
and stability control in smart grids. Figure 3 shows
some of the applications of AI in energy industry
[10].
BENEFITS
The application of AI-based technologies to the
power grid cuts energy waste, facilitates the use of
clean and renewable energy sources, and improve the
planning, operation, and control of the power
systems. The technologies can also help improve
power management, efficiency, stability. resilience.
and transparency, and increase the use of renewable
energy sources. Smart grid facilitates large amounts
of renewable energy integration.
A major benefit of AI is the ability for the customers
and the grid to be connected directly, creating win-
win situation. The price of solar has come down

recently years to bolster the cost-effectiveness of
renewables. This can lead to a more efficient market
and more cost-effective electricity production. It is
realistic to expect the smart grid system to lower
electricity bills and prevent catastrophic blackouts. AI
can help use less energy to accomplish more. It is
also helping compress and analyze the massive
amounts of data produced by energy industry. To
curb data access by private companies, the European
Union (EU) Commission has developed four basic
ethical principles for AIs: AI should respect human
autonomy, avoid social harm, be fair, and be
explainable.
CHALLENGES
Smart grid faces a wide range of challenges, such as
extreme weather, imperfections in the available
infrastructure, reliability issues, equipment failures,
gigantic customer base, decentralized generation, and
decarbonizing the global economy. A major challenge
is the rise of distributed generation, where individual
customers generate and use their own electricity from
renewable sources, such as wind and solar. The
current power system was not designed to
accommodate this diversification in energy sources
and fluctuating supplies of renewable energy. Industry
leaders in the AI energy grid industry are aware of
these challenges and must address them. The use of
AI in smart grid is not without risks. One risk has to
do with the privacy of customer data collected by AI
systems.
THE FUTURE OF AI IN SMART GRID
Artificial intelligence holds significant potential
across a wide array of sectors. It is expanding its
scope over tasks traditionally performed by humans.
Its applications in the energy industry are helping to
make the grid “smarter” or more responsive, thereby
develop the smart grid of the future. AI has been
regarded as the brain behind the future smart grid,
enabling the real-time optimization and automation of
distribution planning and operation decision. The
smart grid is a dynamic system that continues to
evolve as technologies are tested and perfected [13].
Although the use of AI in the smart grid faces some
challenges such as insufficient reliability, imperfect
infrastructure, and lack of special algorithm for power
industry, AI is a powerful tool to push smart grid into
the new generation of power systems. AI supports
and optimizes electric networks around the world,
pushing the concept closer towards a global adoption.
It should be added to all levels in the energy grids, in
order to enhance their development.
Although the smart is not quite here yet, it is slowly
becoming a reality. It is on its way to usher the energy
industry into a new era of reliability, availability, and
efficiency. Significant investments in the
infrastructure will be needed to help smart grids fully
take off [14].
New generation of energy networks will make
efficient use of renewable energy sources, support
real time and efficient demand response, as well as
the large-scale deployment of electric vehicles (EVs)
[15]. To provide a low-cost and flexible solution for
the grid-wide information exchange, wireless
communications technology is expected to play the
key role in the emerging smart grid applications.
CONCLUSION
The smart grid is the developmental trend of power
systems. It has attracted much attention all over the
world. It provides a platform for clean, sustainable,
efficient and reliable energy generation, delivery, and
consumption. It is inevitable that the smart grid will
become part of our society. The global energy
demand is expected to increase steadily in the future.
Therefore, future generations should realize that AI
and energy are not mutually exclusive career paths.
For more information about artificial intelligence in
agriculture, one should consult the books in [16,17].
