Storage technologies are an increasingly crucial element in the continued expansion of renewable energy production. Micro-hydro storage using a pump as turbine is potentially promising solution certain cases, for example, extending existing photovoltaic systems (PV) and thus reducing grid load enabling economically beneficial self-consumption produced. This paper gives overview various operatin...

Abstract In recent years and in many countries the economic development of distant regions is increasingly dependent on energy resources. This fact makes world scientific community pay more attention to renewable sources. Special paid solar, wind small hydropower for electrical consumers who have no possibility connect central power supply lines. that water resources financial support given mic...

The latest trend in generating power for industrial and domestic purposes is the hybrid power generation using non-conventional energy sources. The non-conventional energy sources are the renewable sources that can be utilized again after every use and also whose supply is abundant in nature. This paper presents a new system configuration of the front-end rectifier stage for a hybrid wind/photo...

This paper presents the operation of a Multi-agent system (MAS) for the control of a smart grid. The proposed Multi-agent system consists of seven types of agents: Single Smart Grid Controller (SGC), Load Agents (LAGs), a Wind Turbine Agent (WTAG), Photo-Voltaic Agents (PVAGs), a Micro-Hydro Turbine Agent (MHTAG), Diesel Agents (DGAGs) and a Battery Agent (BAG). In a smart grid LAGs act as cons...

A hydrogenerator’s cost price is considerably influenced by the used and computed design values. The most important parameters in the design of micro hydro power plants synchronous generators are the power blanket, the current density in the statoric winding and the air gap size. In this work we analyze the impact of these parameters on the cost price for a family of hydro power plant synchrono...

this work proposes a neural-fuzzy sliding mode control scheme for a hydro-turbine speed governor system. considering the assumption of elastic water hammer, a nonlinear mode of the hydro-turbine governor system is established. by linearizing this mode, a sliding mode controller is designed. the linearized mode is subject to uncertainties. the uncertainties are generated in the process of linear...

Because of the growing nonlinear and complexity nature microgrid systems for example battery energy storage systems, wind-turbine fuel cell, photovoltaic, micro hydro power plants (BESSs/FC/WT/PV/ Micro Hydro), load-frequency management has been a difficulty. The development controller based on Proportional–Integral–Derivative (PID) an autonomous (MG) with hydro, wind, PV RES is shown in this a...
