Abstract

The increasing integration of renewable energy sources and prosumer-driven energy exchange has made smart grid stability a critical challenge for modern power systems. This study presents a comparative machine learning framework for predicting grid stability using a synthetic dataset derived from a four-node Decentralized Smart Grid Control (DSGC) model. Five complementary training approaches—standard learning, correlation-based feature selection, k-means–assisted enrichment, mutual-information–driven selection, and principal component analysis (PCA)—were systematically evaluated using a broad range of classifiers. Tree-based models demonstrated consistently superior performance, with XGBoost and LightGBM achieving up to 98.9% accuracy under PCA- and mutual-information–enhanced pipelines. These findings highlight the strong discriminative potential of machine learning for stability assessment and demonstrate that data-driven approaches can serve as efficient, interpretable, and computationally scalable tools for supporting reliable energy management in next-generation smart grids.
