Energy users (EUs) across the transmission system (TS) minimize their energy costs by investing in the EHs. A three-level approach using the diagonalization algorithm is employed to evaluate the benefits of cooperation between the transmission system operator (TSO) and energy users (EUs). The proposed framework is modeled using both static and multi-stage optimization approaches to minimize the total costs of the planning, operation, emission, and expected energy not served (EENS) simultaneously for the TSO and EUs at the first and second levels, respectively. The TSO expansion planning is optimized at the first level to meet the TS capacity requirements. At the second level, the EUs at different nodes invest in the EHs based on the calculated locational marginal prices (LMPs). Once the expansion planning of the EUs is optimized, the net electrical demands at the TS nodes are updated. Then, the electrical market is cleared by the independent system operator (ISO) at the third level to update the LMPs. Finally, the strategical expansion planning of the TSO is updated at the first level.</p><p>The security of the TS and EHs is modeled considering the possibility of failure occurrence in the TS lines and energy sources in the EHs. The output power of the renewable energy resources (RESs), multi-carrier load demands, district market prices, operation cost of the thermal units, and equipment availability have uncertain nature. These uncertainties are applied to the proposed framework by a stochastic optimization framework. For evaluating the performance of the proposed model, it is implemented on the modified IEEE 30 bus and 118 bus test systems, considering a common model of the EH, consisting of photovoltaic panels (PVs), wind turbines (WTs), combined heat and power generation (CHP) units boilers, and absorption chillers.

The main point in this work is the adoption of matrix converters featuring a “n” phase output configuration, necessitating the development of novel control algorithms to govern the intricate switching mechanisms inherent in these converters. Among the array of algorithms under consideration, the PWM three intervals strategy emerges as a promising technique for modification and generalization to meet the needs of the 3 × n matrix converter paradigm. A comprehensive theoretical framework is demonstrated in its initial part, characterized by a meticulous exposition of formulations, mathematical derivations, and graphical representations. In this framework, the optimized output voltages designed to vary output phase configurations emanating from the specified triple input phases are used helpfully in the generalized PWM three-s intervals strategy. Subsequently, the article presents a practical demonstration focusing on the field-oriented control of multi-phase induction motors energized by multi-phase matrix converters. A rigorous analytical was performed to enhance the efficacy of the proposed generalized strategy, particularly in closed-loop control scenarios. The study undertakes a comprehensive validation process to confirm the theoretical hypotheses, thorough simulation-based assessments and experimental validation.

Simultaneously, there are increasing number of reports about the misoperation or inadvertent disconnection of GFL-IBRs during disturbances. This paper attempts to shed light on one of the potential root causes of disturbance-induced misoperations of GFL-IBRs. A framework is presented to quantify voltage drop and voltage phase angle jump that appear at the terminals of GFL-IBRs immediately after the inception of various events in the grid such as faults, and tripping of generators and transmission lines. We demonstrate voltage drop and voltage phase angle jump in the upstream grid due to various disturbances may transform into severe voltage drop and voltage phase angle jump at the terminals of GFL-IBRs. The combination of voltage drop and voltage phase angle jump that appear at the terminals of GFL-IBRs is identified as one of the root causes of their misoperation. Therefore, system-wide studies are required to evaluate the dynamic performance of GFL-IBRs rather than sole compliance with standards. The importance of system-wide studies is demonstrated through IEEE 39-bus test system.

We also evaluate the life cycle emission reductions achievable from these systems. Our case study utilizes Monte Carlo optimization with integrated economic and emission models. The results of the 2000 cost-optimized SLES configurations for the years 2020–2023 indicated that compared to the baseline, the levelized cost of electricity reduced in 98% of the cases, while the specific greenhouse gas emissions reduced in 97% of the cases. The mean positive carbon handprint was 44%. Maximum costs to deploy technologies were 30 €/MWh for wind power, 500 €/kW for solar power, and 120 €/kWh for battery storage.

These errors can cause the load current of affected users to flow back to the transformer's neutral point via the PE line as residual current, leading to nuisance tripping of residual current devices (RCDs). To maintain normal power supply, users may disable RCDs, which compromises safety and can result in severe hazards such as electric shocks and electrical fires. This paper proposes a method to locate users with wiring errors by leveraging abundant metering data within LVDS and utilising leakage fault analysis devices. We construct a linear model of residual current considering multiple error scenarios. Based on this model, a multiple linear regression (MLR) approach is developed to identify and locate anomalous users by analysing the correlation between their load currents and the residual current of the LVDS.
