From: Optimization and benefit evaluation model of a cloud computing-based platform for power enterprises
Term | Definition |
|---|---|
Path | The physical or logical route followed during the inspection or maintenance of power equipment. Path optimization reduces time and costs |
Condition coefficient | A numerical indicator reflecting the influence of environmental factors (e.g., weather, terrain) on inspection efficiency and task difficulty |
Workload balance | The equitable distribution of tasks or workload using optimization algorithms to improve overall operational efficiency |
Benefit evaluation | The assessment of a platform’s impact on operational efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability using both quantitative and qualitative indicators |
Multi-objective optimization | The process of identifying optimal trade-offs among multiple, often conflicting objectives, such as minimizing costs while maximizing efficiency |
Cloud computing | A network-based model providing on-demand access to computing resources, storage, and applications, offering scalability and flexibility |
Asset operation monitoring platform | A real-time monitoring system for the operational status of power equipment, supporting strategic maintenance and operational decision-making |
Demand response | The adjustment of electricity consumption by end-users in response to grid conditions, aimed at balancing load and improving energy efficiency |
New energy grid integration | The connection and efficient utilization of renewable energy sources (e.g., wind, solar) within the power grid infrastructure |
