Based on the problems caused by today conventional vehicles, much attention has been put on the fuel cell vehicles researches. However, using a fuel cell system is not adequate alone in transportation applications, because the load power profile includes transient that is not compatible with the fuel cell dynamic. To resolve this problem, hybridization of the fuel cell and energy storage device...

this paper presents a new optimization algorithm to design an optimal proportional, integral, derivative (pid) controller in hydro-turbine generator governor for damping output frequency oscillations. in this research, we utilize a stochastic and optimal based pid controller to control frequency-response of the hydro turbine. the proposed algorithm is employed to design an optimal pid controlle...

In this paper, a heuristic mathematical model for optimal decision-making of a Distribution Company (DisCo) is proposed that employs demand response (DR) programs in order to participate in a day-ahead market, taking into account elastic and inelastic load models. The proposed model is an extended responsive load modeling that is based on price elasticity and customers’ incentives in which they...

With a rapid decline in cost of battery energy storage, system plays an increasingly important role managing imbalance between ordering and consumption the electricity wholesale market. We develop innovative demand forecasting framework for calculating optimal capacity that maximizes profit retailer. The allows different costs associated with over- under-prediction errors, two insensitive param...
