Energy Saving of Conservation Voltage Reduction Based on Load-Voltage Dependency
(MDPI AG, ST ALBAN-ANLAGE 66, CH-4052 BASEL, SWITZERLAND, 2016)
Reducing voltage to reduce energy consumption, referred to as conservation voltage reduction (CVR), can lead to energy savings. Calculating the effects of reducing voltage requires accurate load models. This paper investigates ...
Cloud Induced PV Impact on Voltage Profiles for Real Microgrids
(IEEE, 345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, 2018)
Integration of renewable energy sources (RESs) into power systems has been a popular topic for a long time. Due to government policies and incentives, it will be more popular in the future since it is a free and ...
Provision of Ancillary Services by a Smart Microgrid: An OPF Approach
(IEEE, 345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, 2018)
Ancillary services are all services required by the transmission (TSO) or distribution system operator (DSO) to maintain the integrity and stability of the transmission or distribution system as well as the power quality. ...
Neuro-Fuzzy-Based Model Predictive Energy Management for Grid Connected Microgrids
(MDPI, ST ALBAN-ANLAGE 66, CH-4052 BASEL, SWITZERLAND, 2020)
With constant population growth and the rise in technology use, the demand for electrical energy has increased significantly. Increasing fossil-fuel-based electricity generation has serious impacts on environment. As a ...
Peer-to-Peer Energy Trading in Virtual Power Plant Based on Blockchain Smart Contracts
(IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 445 HOES LANE, PISCATAWAY, NJ 08855-4141 USA, 2020)
A novel Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading scheme for a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) is proposed by using Smart Contracts on Ethereum Blockchain Platform. The P2P energy trading is the recent trend the power society is keen ...
Implementation of cost benefit analysis of vehicle to grid coupled real Micro-Grid by considering battery energy wear: Practical study case
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 1 OLIVERS YARD, 55 CITY ROAD, LONDON EC1Y 1SP, ENGLAND, 2020)
The proposed research represents a spin-off of the Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology (MCAST) Micro-Grid (MG) project. Particularly, economic impact of Electric Vehicles (EV) integration into the MG is investigated ...
Design considerations for campus micro-grid: MCAST Case Study
(IEEE, 345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, 2018)
This paper aims to propose design considerations to transform the Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology (MCAST) current and future planned electrical network system into an efficient micro-grid. MCAST is a young ...
Distribution Automation Effects on Reliability during Major Contingencies
(IEEE, 345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, 2018)
Distribution automation affects reliability by providing faster restoration ability. In this study, the effect of distribution automation on radial distribution circuits during substation failures at peak load is investigated. ...
Transformation of microgrid to virtual power plant - a comprehensive review
(INST ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY-IET, MICHAEL FARADAY HOUSE SIX HILLS WAY STEVENAGE, HERTFORD SG1 2AY, ENGLAND, 2019)
To provide continuity of balancing demand and generation, renewable sources will be more active than today in near future due to the tendency of massive investment on renewable energy sources (RESs) by countries. However, ...
Implementation of capital deferral algorithm in real distribution systems considering reliability by managing major faults
(SPRINGER, ONE NEW YORK PLAZA, SUITE 4600, NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, 2019)
Distribution automation technology plays a key role on power system reliability by providing faster detection, isolating the faulted area and restoring the fault. In this paper, the impacts of distribution automation are ...
