“…Köpp et al [12] suggested reference values for sizes or pumping station operations to define the performance index (Pi). The authors proposed an acceptable index corresponding to a "good" rating of energy consumption for each hectare of irrigated crop according to Equation (1).…”

Non-technical losses (NTLs) verified in the power distribution grids cause great financial losses to power utilities. In rural distribution grids, fraudulent consumers contribute to technical problems. The Southern region in Brazil contains more than 70% of the total rice production and power irrigation systems. These systems operate seasonally in distribution grids with high NTL conditions. This work aimed to present an artificial intelligence-based system to help power distribution companies detect potential consumers causing NTLs. This minimizes the challenge of maintaining compliance with current regulations and ensuring the quality of services and products. In the proposed methodology, historical energy consumption information, meteorological data, satellite images, and data from energy suppliers are processed by artificial intelligence, indicating the suspicious consumer units of NTL. This work presents every step developed in the proposed methodology and the tool application in a pilot area. We detected a high number of consumers responsible for NTLs, with an accuracy of 63% and an average reduction of 78% in the search area. These results corroborated the effectiveness of the tool and instigated the research team to expand the application to other rice production areas.

“…According to Köpp et al [12], the average energy consumption index per area (CPA) for rice irrigation in the pilot study area ranges from 550 to 750 kWh•ha −1 per harvest. This approach aims to identify consumer units whose energy consumption is above or below the average range.…”
