Energy Management in Buildings with Intermittent and Limited Renewable Resources

Day-ahead energy management of a microgrid with renewable energy resources and CHP units, considering demand response

Global warming, environmental pollution, fossil resources reduction, the increased demand and price of energy carriers, and various international social and political consequences are among the problems of traditional energy generation and distribution system. In the traditional generation systems, about two-thirds of energy is wasted and the presence of scattered energy resources such as photo...

Non-renewable and intermittent renewable energy sources: friends and foes?

Prioritizing Renewable Energy Resources of Hormozgan Province

Energy as a geopolitical factor has gained a special occasion in power games of the world and access to energy resources has become a strategic importance for all levels of hierarchy of global power. Hormozgan province is one of the industrial provinces of Iran and this subject has caused to has been growing energy consumption in the province. Limited fossil energy resources and the problems of...

An Optimized Home Energy Management System with Integrated Renewable Energy and Storage Resources

Traditional power grid and its demand-side management (DSM) techniques are centralized and mainly focus on industrial consumers. The ignorance of residential and commercial sectors in DSM activities degrades the overall performance of a conventional grid. Therefore, the concept of DSM and demand response (DR) via residential sector makes the smart grid (SG) superior over the traditional grid. I...

Energy Management in Microgrids Containing Electric Vehicles and Renewable ‎Energy Sources Considering Demand Response

Microgrid and smart electrical grids are among the new concepts in power systems that support new technologies within themselves. Electric cars are some advanced technologies that their optimized use can increase grid efficiency. The modern electric cars sometimes, through the necessary infrastructure and proper management, can serve as an energy source to supply grid loads. This study was cond...
