Decentralized Intelligence in Energy Efficient Power Systems

چکیده
Power systems are increasingly built from distributed generation units and smart consumers that are able to react to grid conditions. Managing this large number of decentralized electricity sources and flexible loads represent a very huge optimization problem. Both from the regulatory and the computational perspective, no one central coordinator can optimize this overall system. Decentralized control mechanisms can, however, distribute the optimization task through price signals or market-based mechanisms. This chapter presents the concepts that enable a decentralized control of demand and supply while enhancing overall efficiency of the electricity system. It highlights both technological and business challenges that result from the realization of these concepts, and presents the state-of-the-art in the respective domains.

Increasing the Efficiency of Photovoltaic Systems by Using Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT)
Using Photovoltaic systems is gradually expanded by increasing energy demand. Abundance and availability of this energy, has turned to one of the most important sources of renewable energy. Unfortunately, photovoltaic systems have two big problems: first, those have very low energy conversion efficiency (in act between 12 and 42 percent under certain circumstances). Second, the power produced b...

متن کاملA New Class of Decentralized Interaction Estimators for Load Frequency Control in Multi-Area Power Systems
Load Frequency Control (LFC) has received considerable attention during last decades. This paper proposes a new method for designing decentralized interaction estimators for interconnected large-scale systems and utilizes it to multi-area power systems. For each local area, a local estimator is designed to estimate the interactions of this area using only the local output measurements. In fact,...
متن کاملMicro combined heat and power home supply: Prospective and adaptive management achieved by computational intelligence techniques
Micro combined heat and power (CHP) systems for single residential buildings are seen as advantageous to combine both decentralized power supply and rather high overall efficiency. The latter presupposes flexible and adaptive plant management which has to mediate between energy cost minimization and user comfort aspects. This is achieved by use of computational intelligence (CI) techniques; str...
