This paper presents a model for power load forecasting using support vector machine and chaotic time series. The new model can make more accurate prediction. In the past few years, along with power system privatization and deregulation, accurate forecast of electricity load has received increasing attention. According to the chaotic and non-linear characters of power load data, the model of sup...

There is wide variability in how organizations approach sustainability and the energy system transition toward using more renewables. In electric power industry, while some distribution utilities have leaned into transition, others taken a conservative approach. Grounded an institutional resource-based perspective, this multi-level study examines key intra-firm, firm, individual leadership fact...

Distributed generator has been confirmed to be a means by which installation of new centralized can delayed or postponed in the era deregulation. It helps minimize line losses and improve voltage profile. benefits associated with distributed greatly harnessed when DG is optimally sited sized within power system network. In this study, different methods used previous researchers were extensively...

Deregulation and privatization as well as the increase use of renewable energy are posing new challenges on high voltage transmission systems. Environmental constraints, such as energy saving, loss minimization and CO2 reduction, will also play an important role. The loading of existing power systems will further increase, leading to bottlenecks and reliability problems. High voltage power elec...

facts technology has considerable applications in power systems, such as; improving the steady stateperformance, damping the power system oscillations, controlling the power flow, and etc. statcom is oneof the most important facts devices used in the parallel compensation, enhancing transient stability andetc. since three phase fault is widespread in power systems, in this paper statcom is used...

this paper focuses on multi-objective designing of multi-machine thyristor controlled series compensator (tcsc) using strength pareto evolutionary algorithm (spea). the tcsc parameters designing problem is converted to an optimization problem with the multi-objective function including the desired damping factor and the desired damping ratio of the power system modes, which is solved by a spea ...

Cyberspace already takes little note of national borders, which may eventually lose their significance for electronic commerce. Cyberspace and other innovative information technology (IT) have affected the financial system greatly moving from restricted proprietary systems to open networks. In the last 20 years, the financial services industry has witnessed dramatic changes, largely driven by g...
