Planning of HMG with high penetration of renewable energy sourcesBaseer, Muhammad, Mokryani, Geev, Zubo, Rana H.A., Cox, S. 03 April 2019 (has links)
Yes / Hybrid AC-DC microgrid (HMG) allows direct integration of both AC distributed generators (DGs) and DC DGs, AC and DC loads into the grid. The AC and DC sources, loads are separate out and are connected to respective subgrid mainly to reduce the power conversion, thus the overall efficiency of the system increases. This paper aims to introduce a novel hybrid AC-DC microgrid planning and design model within a microgrid market environment to maximize net social welfare (NSW). NSW is defined as present value of total demand payment minus present value of total planning cost including investment cost of distributed energy sources (DERs) and converters, operation cost of DERs and the cost of energy exchange with the utility grid subject to network constraints. Scenario Tree approach is used to model the uncertainties related to load demand, wind speed and solar irradiation. The effectiveness of the proposed model is validated through the simulation studies on a 28-bus real hybrid AC-DC microgrid.

Virtual Power Plant Simulation and Control Scheme DesignChen, Zhenwei January 2012 (has links)
Virtual Power Plant (VPP) is a concept that aggregate Distributed Energy Resources (DER) together, aims to overcome the capacity limits of single DER and the intermit-ted natural characteristics of renewable energy sources like wind and solar. The whole system can be viewed as a single large-capacity power plant from the system‘s point of view. In this project, the literature review of VPP concept, architecture, existed project and the survey of VPP in Sweden are being conducted first. Secondly, the simplified VPP model is built on MATLAB/Simulink software. The simplified system contains a wind farm, a hydro power plant, a dynamic system load and an infinite bus representing the large transmission grid. During the simulation process, the generation and consump-tion unites are running according to the real history data located in external database. In the third place, optimized control schemes for the hydro unit in VPP model to decrease its effects on transmission grid are implemented in Simulink model. At the same time, hydro turbine should be controlled in an optimized way that without large turbulence. Basically, the hydro power plant is responsible for balancing the active power between the wind farm and dynamic load. Since there is a limit for the hydro turbine output, the rest of either power shortage or surplus power need to be com-pensated by the grid. This is the fundamental control scheme, so called run time con-trol scheme. The advanced control schemes here are based on the moving average control method and forecast compensation control method. The forecast compensa-tion control method use the 24 hours ahead load forecasting data generated by Artifi-cial Neural Network. Later on, analysis of those three control schemes will be pre-sented. The last part of the project is the conclusion of the different control schemes according to comparison of their control results.

[en] OPTIMIZATION OF BATTERY SWAPPING STATIONS WITH BATTERY HETEROGENEITY, CHARGING DEGRADATION AND PV-OPTION / [pt] OTIMIZAÇÃO DE ESTAÇÕES DE TROCA DE BATERIA COM BATERIAS HETEROGÊNEAS, DEGRADAÇÃO NA CARGA E OPÇÃO FOTOVOLTÁICANICKOLAS GUELLER ROCHA 27 March 2023 (has links)
[pt] Problemas de emissão de gases de efeito estufa vem sido amplamente discutidos nos últimos anos, uma vez que mais de 70 países já se comprometeram
a uma economia neutra em carbono até 2050. A eletrificação dos modais de
transporte tem sido ampliadas seguindo essas metas, onde os Veículos Elétricos (VEs) começam a ganhar participação sobre o mercado de Veículos com
Motor de Combustão Interna (VMCI) por todo o mundo. Além da particular
complexidade na comparação entre VEs e VMCIs, desafios envolvendo a natureza dos VEs e sua integração com as cidades, como a falta de locais públicos
para recarga, também são críticos e interferem no seu desenvolvimento. Nesse
contexto, este trabalho visa estudar o problema de uma Estação de Troca de
Baterias (ETB), uma estrutura onde os usuários de VEs trocam suas baterias
descarregadas por outras totalmente ou parcialmente carregadas. No intuito
de simular as operações diárias do ETB e o cronograma de carregamento das
baterias, um novo modelo de Programação Linear Inteira Mista (PLIM) é proposto, levando em consideração a heterogeneidade da bateria, o uso de geração
fotovoltaica (PV) local e a degradação da bateria com base no perfil de carregamento. Uma coleção de métricas de operação do ETB é projetada para avaliar
a qualidade da solução do modelo de cronograma proposto. É apresentado um
experimento numérico que compreende quatro estudos de caso baseados em
dados reais dos sistemas de energia e transporte dos EUA, contendo insights
e análises sobre o uso da energia fotovoltaica e da rede, bem como uma comparação financeira do ETB com abordagens de cronograma de benchmarks
relacionados, juntamente de sensibilidades no plano de dimensionamento do
ETB e atendimento a clientes. / [en] Greenhouse gas emissions-related issues have been extensively discussed
in the past years, with over 70 countries already committed to a carbon-neutral
economy by 2050. The electrification of transportation modals has increased
following these goals, where Electric Vehicles (EVs) are starting to take Internal
Combustion Engine Vehicles (ICEV) market share all over the globe. Besides
the particular complexity in comparing EVs and ICEVs, challenges involving
the nature of EVs and their integration with cities, such as the lack of public
locals for charging, are also critical and interfere with their development. In
this context, this work aims at studying the problem of a Battery Swapping
Station (BSS), a structure where the EVs users swap their depleted batteries
for fully or partially charged ones. In order to simulate the BSS daily operations
and batteries charging schedule, a novel Mixed Integer Linear Programming
(MILP) model is proposed, taking into account battery heterogeneity, the
use of local photovoltaic (PV) production and battery degradation based
on charging profile. A collection of BSS operation metrics are designed to
evaluate the solution quality of the proposed scheduling model. A numerical
experiment comprising four case studies based on real data from the US power
and transportation systems is presented, with insights and analyses on the PV
and grid power use, as well as a BSS financial comparison against close-related
benchmark scheduling approaches, together with sensitivities on BSS sizing
plan and costumers attendance.
