abstract: in this paper a control scheme for grid-connected operation mode and the island state of distributed generation is presented. in normal conditions, every inverter dg system in micro-grids to supply a preset power, normally operate in a constant current control mode. when micro-grids removed from the network, dg inverter of each system must recognize the island and change position to v...

This paper proposes a Flexible Power Electronic Transformer (FPET) for the application in the micro-grids. The low frequency transformer is usually used at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) to connect the low voltage grid and utility network to each other. The conventional 50Hz transformer results in enhanced low voltage-grid power management system during grid-connected operation. In this pap...

Development of every society is incumbent upon energy sector’s technological and economic effectiveness. The electricity industry is a growing and needs to have a better performance to effectively cover the demand. The industry requires a balance between cost and efficiency through careful design and planning. In this paper, a two-stage stochastic programming model is presented for the design o...

The traditional electrical power grid is currently evolving into the smart grid. Smart grid integrates the traditional electrical power grid with information and communication technologies (ICT). Such integration empowers the electrical utilities providers and consumers, improves the efficiency and the availability of the power system while constantly monitoring, controlling and managing the de...

voltage control is one of the imperative issues in the smart distribution control system. while traditional distribution network is equipped with communication and monitoring equipment, the online voltage control can be perfectly achieved. with using these smart grid technologies, the distribution voltage control schemes should carry out intelligently and cover the undesirable effect of high pe...
