Due to the random uncertainty of wind speed, it poses a huge challenge to achieve optimal control tasks and ensure the safe and stable operation of the system. Therefore, this article proposes a stochastic model predictive control strategy based on Polynomial Chaotic Expansion (PCE), which achieves the control tasks of MPPT and constant power regions in wind energy conversion systems. Firstly, a simple algorithm is proposed to obtain a set of basis functions that are suitable for the stochastic variable wind speed. Then, the obtained basis functions are used to propagate the uncertainty of the original uncertain differential equation of the wind energy conversion system through polynomial chaotic expansion. Combining the operating region and constraint conditions of the wind energy conversion system, the original stochastic uncertainty problem is transformed into a deterministic convex optimization problem. Using NREL 5MW wind turbine as the research object for simulation, the task of capturing maximum wind energy in MPPT area and tracking rated power points in constant power area was achieved. The experimental results show that the proposed control method can effectively improve the wind energy capture capability and achieve accurate tracking of output power to rated power.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":" 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141832249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing typical capacity and power energy storage application scenarios, coupled with industry research data and technical analysis of energy storage, this study calculates the cost of energy storage per kilowatt-hour and the associated mileage cost.

Therefore, the development of energy storage technologies (EST) should prioritize achieving “low cost, long life, high safety, and easy recycling,” taking into account a comprehensive assessment of system manufacturing, system lifespan, system safety, and recycling. This paper delves into the changing trend of battery costs and their impact on kilowatt-hours, presenting strategic suggestions to reduce the kilowatt-hour cost of ESP stations.

However, excessive renewable energy sources (RES) in the power grid provide technical problems, including equipment protection, DG operation, and islanding detection. One of the most serious challenges is the islanding phenomenon. Islanding can cause several problems, such as frequency instability and voltage fluctuations resulting in damage to electrical equipment or threatening utility workers who may be working/accessing the equipment. This research proposes an efficient islanding detection algorithm to lessen the impact of such threats. This novel passive islanding detection scheme is based on superimposed positive sequence impedance (SPSI). For calculating the superimposed positive sequence impedance (SPSI), the voltage and current signals are obtained from targeted DG points. The scheme’s performance is tested on multiple bus systems across islanding and non-islanding conditions using a MATLAB/Simulink environment. It is shown that even in the presence of noise, the algorithm can determine an islanding decision with high accuracy and a short detection time of 84 ms. In comparison to other algorithms, it operates at zero power mismatch (ZPM) and does not affect power quality.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":" 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141831853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we propose a Robust Distributed Model Predictive Control (RDMPC) method. This method achieves system trajectory tracking by solving the nominal system optimization problem. It also flexibly adjusts the weights of different Tube models to determine the optimal control law using the standard Tube online combination with various gain values. Additionally, we incorporate the states of adjacent areas into the feedback control law to achieve effective coordination between these areas. Using MATLAB/Simulink, we simulated the power system in two areas.

When integrating several energy sources, such as batteries, solar PV arrays, fuel cells, etc., multi-input DC-DC converters preferred over multiple single-input DC-DC converters. The vast majority of MISO converters in use today only have one mode of operation, which is conventional operation using all sources. Very few MISO topologies have been presented with fault-tolerant capability. In this work, a non-isolated two-input single-output (MISO) boost converter is investigated for low-voltage DC (LVDC) applications with fault tolerant capability. The presented converter works in three modes, such as DC sources of equal values, DC sources of unequal values, and one of the DC sources that is faulty or out of order. The converter is simulated in a MATLAB/Simulink environment and experimentally validated using a scaled prototype. The outcomes demonstrate that the converter can integrate systems with two DC energy sources, accommodates DC sources of equal values, DC sources of unequal values, and works even when one of the DC sources is faulty or out of order. This work points out that the presented MISO converter would be an apt solution for integrating varying input voltage sources with fault-tolerant capability.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":" 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141831816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
