In the long-term yearly sequence generation process, the <i>k</i>-means clustering algorithm and Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation method were developed to capture the seasonal and long-term features of wind and photovoltaic energies. Furthermore, an attention-based conditional generative adversarial network (ACGAN) was proposed to capture short-term features. An attention structure and conditional classifiers were developed to capture features in the generated scenarios. To accelerate the convergence process and improve the quality of the generated scenarios, a gradient penalty was included in the ACGAN model.

The Energy DAO utilises algorithms and user consensus combined with smart contracts to solidify organisational operation rules. In this way, it organises users to directly participate in multiple types of electricity markets and carbon markets, as well as behavioural data production and transactions.

To address this, this paper proposes a novel two-stage customized EV charging–navigation strategy. Building on previous research on the real-time information from dynamic traffic networks, a personalized dynamic road impedance (PDRI) model is built to transform three main criteria (distance, time, and finance) affecting charging–navigation into comprehensive road impedance. In the first navigation stage, fast-charging stations (FCSs) with the lowest overall objective are selected. In the second navigation stage, an improved Floyd–Warshall algorithm is utilized to identify the routes with the lowest personalized weight to the selected FCS in the PDRI model. Notably, the personalized preferences of EV drivers for the three primary criteria are considered in both stages of the navigation process. Finally, simulation results demonstrate a significant improvement in the degree of matching between charging navigation plans and drivers' personalized requirements, and a more balanced spatial–temporal distribution of EV charging demands among FCSs, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.</p>","PeriodicalId":100467,"journal":{"name":"Energy Conversion and Economics","volume":"4 6","pages":"401-416"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/enc2.12102","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139047614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The co-optimisation of active and reactive power generation is constrained by the interdependence of the active and reactive power capacities, which is represented by the generator capability curve. Thus, a detailed mathematical derivation of the opportunity costs across various regions of the generator capability curve is presented. This study considers a detailed generator capability curve that considers the armature, field, under-excitation, and prime mover limits. The interdependence of active and reactive power consumption for demand is modelled using the concept of power-factor. The OPF problem for generator and load scheduling is formulated as a non-linear optimisation task, leveraging the inherent properties of the generator capability curve, that is, piecewise smoothness, continuity, and the monotonically increasing slope magnitudes.

Prior to a typhoon, the first stage establishes a comprehensive wind field model based on extreme value distribution for accurate wind speed predictions. Simultaneously, a refined stress–strength interference model is used to determine the likelihood of distribution line failures. Taking into account the uncertainty of line damage, repair crews and mobile emergency generators are then strategically positioned at staging depots. Following the typhoon, the second stage coordinates network reconfiguration, dispatches repair crews, and mobilizes mobile emergency generators to minimize load shedding and expedite repairs. This model was validated on the IEEE 33-bus distribution system, coupled with a corresponding transportation network, utilizing data from the 2018 super typhoon Mangkhut'' in China.

Integrating single-phase distributed generation (DG) exacerbates network imbalances, resulting in increased power losses and potential safety hazards. To address these issues, a dynamic reconfiguration strategy (DNR) for three-phase imbalanced distribution networks, considering soft open points (SOP), has been proposed. The objective is to alleviate the three-phase imbalance and minimize the operational costs of the distribution network. Within the reconfiguration strategy, the constraints of DG current imbalance in practical system operations are considered. A three-phase imbalanced DNR model that simultaneously considers the constraints of the SOP and DG current imbalances is introduced. This model aims to optimize the operation of all devices, including the SOP, to address the overall imbalance of the distribution network. This enables the authors to transform the non-linear model into a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model, significantly improving the solution efficiency.
