LVDC: An Efficient Energy Solution for On-Grid Photovoltaic Applications

In this paper some photovoltaic, PV, conversion chains architectures for on-grid applications have been proposed and the advantage of the direct use of a Low Voltage Direct Current (LVDC) bus for the DC loads has been shown. The evaluation of the efficiency of the proposed chains compared to the classical one was performed. It is shown that LVDC use instead of standard AC plugs, in numerous app...

Energy Storage in Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Plants

Nowadays, photovoltaic (PV) plants are receiving a very great attention due to their intrinsic ability to directly transform solar energy in electrical energy. Nevertheless, electricity generated from photovoltaic plants can rarely provide immediate response to load demand, as these sources do not deliver a regular supply immediately compatible with consumption needs. In stand-alone PV plants, ...

Power Balancing Control for Grid Energy Storage System in Photovoltaic Applications—Real Time Digital Simulation Implementation

A grid energy storage system for photo voltaic (PV) applications contains three different power sources i.e., PV array, battery storage system and the grid. It is advisable to isolate these three different sources to ensure the equipment safety. The configuration proposed in this paper provides complete isolation between the three sources. A Power Balancing Control (PBC) method for this configu...

E2DR: Energy Efficient Data Replication in Data Grid

Abstract— Data grids are an important branch of gird computing which provide mechanisms for the management of large volumes of distributed data. Energy efficiency has recently emerged as a hot topic in large distributed systems. The development of computing systems is traditionally focused on performance improvements driven by the demand of client's applications in scientific and business domai...
