Because of installation for local consumers and since it is free of all contaminations, connecting photovoltaic cells to the grid via single-phase inverter is significantly on the rise. In this paper, a new simple current control is proposed for a single-phase grid-connected voltage source inverter. Using the PQ theory and modelling a single-phase system as an unbalanced three-phase system, a m...

This paper presents the simulation technique for simulating a micro grid (MG) and the analysis results of the operating characteristics of a MG with a hybrid power source. The hybrid power source in this research included both a diesel engine generation set and a wind generation system. The simulation tool adopted by this research is the professional software, Simulink. The simulation results a...

Testing Grid models and their resource management components is a critical part of efficient Grid development. There are two ways to experimentally assess the performance of Grid models: benchmarking and using synthetic grid workloads. Workload generation for Grids has become more problematic than for independent supercomputers. It requires standardization of the activity of thousand simultaneo...

Resilient operation of microgrid is an important concept in modern power system. Its goal is to anticipate and limit the risks, and provide appropriate and continuous services under changing conditions. There are many factors that cause the operation mode of micogrid changes between island and grid-connected modes. On the other hand, nowadays, electric vehicles (EVs) are desirable energy storag...

Dr. Rajit Gadh presented some major challenges and tech­ nologies required to make the US electric grid smart and more efficient, given that energy consumption is rapidly increasing and becoming more expensive. One critical issue is the inflexibility of the current grid system, whose structure assumes a unidirectional flow of power, control, and information. For instance, power generation has a...

This paper presents a control strategy for fuel cell/energy storage power generation system during voltage sag conditions. The hybrid DC power sources are connected to grid using power electronic converters include DC-DC converter and grid connected voltage source inverter. The power from hybrid power sources is controlled during voltage sag by designing of control strategy for DC-DC converter....

In the near future the use of distributed generation systems will play a big role in the production ofelectrical energy. One of the most common types of DG technologies , fuel cells , which can be connectedto the national grid by power electronic converters or work alone Studies the dynamic behavior andstability of the power grid is of crucial importance. These studies need to know the exact mo...

Future smart grids will require a flexible, observable, and controllable network architecture for reliable and efficient energy delivery under uncertain conditions. They will also necessitate variability in distributed energy generators and demand-side loads. This study presents a tree-like user-mode network architecture responding to these requirements. The approaches presented for the next-ge...
