Heuristic Methods for Postoutage Voltage Magnitude Calculations
(TUBITAK Scientific & Technical Research Council Turkey, 2016)
Power systems play a significant role in every aspect of our daily lives. Hence their continuation without any interruption (or with the least duration of interruption due to faults or scheduled maintenances) is one of the ...
Harmony Search Algorithm Based Management of Distributed Energy Resources and Storage Systems in Microgrids
(MDPI, 2020)
Microgrids are composed of distributed energy resources (DERs), storage devices, electric vehicles, flexible loads and so on. They may either operate connected to the main electricity grid (on-grid operation) or separated ...
Semi-Centralized Control of Distributed Generation in Smart Grids
(IEEE, 2018)
This paper proposes a semi-centralized intelligent control approach for voltage regulation in distribution grids based on sensitivity calculations. The model checks the voltage magnitudes of each end of each lateral in the ...
Coordinated Electric Vehicle Charging With Reactive Power Support to Distribution Grids
(IEEE, 2019)
We develop hierarchical coordination frameworks to optimally manage active and reactive power dispatch of number of spatially distributed electric vehicles (EVs) incorporating distribution grid level constraints. The ...
Towards Faster Branch Outage Simulations Using Simulated Annealing and Parallel Programming
(IEEE, 2009)
Contingency studies such as branch outage and generator outage are among important studies of energy management centers operations. Branch outage modeling on the other hand is one of the basic steps of post-outage state ...
A Comparative Study of Metaheuristic Algorithms for Wave Energy Converter Power Take-Off Optimisation: A Case Study for Eastern Australia
(MDPI, 2021)
One of the most encouraging sorts of renewable energy is ocean wave energy. In spite of a large number of investigations in this field during the last decade, wave energy technologies are recognised as neither mature nor ...
Nodal Sensitivity-Based Smart Inverter Control for Voltage Regulation in Distribution Feeder
(IEEE Electron Devices Society, 2021)
Overvoltage is one of the issues in distribution grids with high penetration of photovoltaics (PVs). Centralized or droop-based methods of active power curtailment (APC) and/or reactive power control of PVs are viable ...
