One of the most considerable issues in the global society is reducing CO2 emissions of industrial activities and its consequences. Therefore, exploitation of clean energy sources is one of the requirements of the international community. In this regard, the researchers investigated the impact of renewable energy utilization to achieve the low carbon economy and concluded that it can significant...

Effective utilization of power is more important than generation of power because power scarcity is the major problem at present in India. It leads many industries to utilize the diesel generator results pollution and demand to fossil fuel. So nowadays many industries and government passions on renewable energy. A wind solar hybrid power system plays a crucial role today in renewable power reso...

The integration of renewable wind and pumped storage with thermal power generation allows for dispatch of wind energy by generation companies (GENCOs) interested in participation in energy and ancillary services markets. However, to realize the maximum economic profit, optimal coordination and accounting for reduction in cost for environmental emission is necessary. The goal of this study is to...

With the increasing amount of wind power generation connected to the power grid, the importance of measuring the wind turbines’ power characteristics and power quality characteristics is growing. By capturing this data, one can achieve improved utilization of the turbine by manipulating its control systems in accordance to power grid requirements for voltage/frequency fluctuations and fault con...

Australia's wind resource is considered to be very good, and the utilization of this renewable energy resource is increasing rapidly: wind power installed capacity increased by 35% from 2006 to 2011 and is predicted to account for over 12% of Australia's electricity generation in 2030. Due to this growth in the utilization of the wind resource and the increasing importance of wind power in Aust...

Renewable energy sources i.e., energy generated from solar, wind, biomass, hydro power, geothermal and ocean resources are considered as a technological option for generating clean energy. This paper presents the Solar-Wind hybrid Power system that harnesses the renewable energies in Sun and Wind to generate electricity. System control relies mainly on micro controller. It ensures the optimum u...

Wind power systems have strong nonlinear characteristic, when wind speed is below the rated value. A novel intelligent hybrid maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller for variable-speed wind power systems is designed, linear parameter-varying (LPV) gain-scheduling controller is designed to regulate output of fast-dynamics generator torque, neural network compensator is used to eliminate t...

Development and utilization of wind energy has become an important part of world sustainable energy development strategy. A control method realizing maximum power point tracking of wind turbine through adjusting the load characteristics was proposed in this article. The power management system based on DC/DC convertors was designed. The maximum power point tracker (MPPT) extracts maximum power ...
