Research of NILM in Offshore Oil Platform Power System

As of non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) in demand-side response, the main problem is that there are too many differences in power characteristics refer to the different types of electrical devices. This paper proposes an algorithm that can run on inexpensive and energy-efficient embedded system. A smart meter solution is designed to integrate the embedded system together with the meter in offshore oil platform power system. All the data is processed in the embedded system. It can distinguish the behavior of electrical appliances, providing a data foundation for demand-side response.
