Valuing dedicated storage in electricity grids

Day-ahead economic dispatch of coupled desalinated water and power grids with participation of compressed air energy storages

Nowadays, water and electricity are closely interdependent essential sources in human life that affect socio-economic growth and prosperity. In other words, electricity is a fundamental source to supply a seawater desalination process, while fresh water is used for cooling this power plant. Therefore, mutual vulnerability of water treatment and power generation systems is growing because of inc...

Locating, Sizing, and Optimal Planning of the Distribution Substations Using Vanadium Flow Battery Storage to Improve the Efficiency of the Power Distribution Network

In power grids, there must always be a balance between energy production and consumption. Due to the variable nature of consumers, energy production should also be subject to these changes. Electricity storage is one of the most important issues in the electricity industry, which can generate many ancillary services such as load curve leveling, peak shaving, integration with renewable units, ro...

Storage Management in Modern Electricity Power Grids

This letter introduces a method to manage energy storage in electricity grids. Starting from the stochastic characterization of electricity generation and demand, we propose an equation that relates the storage level for every time-step as a function of its previous state and the realized surplus/deficit of electricity. Therefrom, we can obtain the probability that, in the next time-step: (i) t...

Designing Decision Maker in a Smart Home for Energy Consumption Optimization Using Fuzzy Modeling

existed electricity grids deliver produced power to the consumer passing through transmission and distribution grids. According to high losses of these grids in transmission level and inexistence of bilateral interaction for simultaneous information exchange, a concept of smart grids were made by capabilities such as consciously participation of consumers in the smart electricity grids, an amou...
