precision agriculture is continuously trying to address the sources and factors affecting the in-field variability and taking appropriate managerial decisions. one of the popular research focuses in the recent three decades has been on the development of new approaches to making yield variability maps. advancement in development of sensors and the importance of quality factor in high value crop...

The increment integration of renewable distributed energies means the desired operation of the electric power system will significantly depend on the performance of primary energy. In this order, an integrated approach for mutual interaction between the electricity and natural gas systems has been considered for the purpose of ensuring optimal energy exchanging between the electric power system...

Microgrids (MGs) contain a diverse mix of energy resources to provide safe and secure power to the consumers. Batteries are utilized in MGs for further energy security assurance as well as cost minimization. In this paper, an efficient approach is introduced for simultaneous energy management and optimal battery sizing to accomplish economic MG operation. Also, demand response programs are empl...

one of the important issues in the middle east country is trying to establish or revive nuclear program over the past few years. this subject can have peaceful or military dimension & components of power and security can be affected. the regional country insisted on its being non-nuclear by 2006. but from this time, gradually altered the traditional approach of these countries on the nuclear is...

the implementation of economic projects by targeting the subsidies can have a great effect on the costcompetitiveness of the industries and their products. the global steel industry has been considered as a basickey industry in the industrialized countries. it is also among the industries that may be seriously affected by theenforcement of subsidies. this industry, requiring energy and high-tec...

This paper develops an energy management approach for a multi-microgrid (MMG) taking into account multiple objectives involving plug-in electric vehicle (PEV), photovoltaic (PV) power, and a distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) to improve power provision sharing. In the proposed approach, there is a pool of fuzzy microgrids granules that they compete with each other to prolong their lives...
