This paper describes modeling and simulation of a renewable energy based hybrid power system in the aspects of improving power quality, energy management and control, because optimal utilization of primary energy sources will increase the level of supply reliability. In order to meet sustained load demands during varying natural conditions, different renewable energy sources and converters are ...

Utilization ofwind power as one of renewable resources of energy has been growing quickly all over the world in the last decades. Wind power generation is significantly vacillating due to the wind speed alteration. Therefore, assessment of the output power of this type of generators is always associated with some uncertainties. A precise wind power prediction can efficiently uphold transmission...

Utilization of wind turbines as economic and green production units, poses new challenges to the power system planners, mainly due to the stochastic nature of the wind, adding a new source of uncertainty to the power system. Different types of distribution and correlation between this random variable and the system load makes conventional method inappropriate for modeling such a correlation. In...

In order to make a wind-solar complementary power system be a self-intervention controller, a new fuzzy control approach to hybrid power generation in wind and solar co-generation system is developed in this paper. Firstly, a new kind of structure of wind-solar complementary power system is designed. The method of double-fed brushless wind turbine sets is adopted, based on the principle of nonl...

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. But the energy generated from solar and wind is much less than the production by fossil fuels, however, electricity generation by utilizing PV cells and wind turbine increased rapidly in recent years. This pap...

Original scientific paper The determination of the optimal wind power integration capacity of a large-scale wind farm has become an important issue in power system operation and planning. Reasonable wind power integration capacity can improve the wind energy utilization and save investment for wind farm construction. This paper builds a mathematical model for determining wind farm optimal integ...

The renewable energy sources have increased significantly due to environmental issues and fossil fuels elevated cost. Integration of renewable energy sources to utility grid depends on the scale of power generation. Large scale power generations are connected to transmission systems where as small scale distributed power generation is connected to distribution systems. There are certain challen...

The aim of this paper is to examine if the surplus of wind energy could be added to electricity-to-heat conversion systems when there is increased congestion in the grid or when there is wind power curtailment. In this way, the produced power can be utilized for contributing to the local district heating (DH) system needs. After examining scenarios, optimized energy distribution is recommended....
