Abstract
This paper describes the present status and future prospects for expert system development in the electric power industry in Japan. The paper first reviews the principal activities in expert system application to power systems: a research committee in the Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan, a special committee in the Society of Electrical Cooperative Research, and an R&D group of utility members. Electric utilities have strong expectations for applying expert system technology to various tasks for power supply services. The paper examines such expectations and also summarizes the present situation of system development within the industry, based on an analysis of extensive questionnaires sent both to power companies and manufacturers. The principal techniques currently used in developing expert systems in this field are also reported. Finally, a future scenario for using expert systems in many activities for advanced power supply services at the beginning of the 21st century is presented. In Japan, there are some organizations where people exchange their information other than collaboration by universities, users and manufacturers in development. There are places for both competition and cooperation.
