The economy of power grid is firstly described by construction economy, operation economy and society economy, and they are considered as the first-class evaluation indicators. Each indicator is then refined into some detailed second-class indicators. Thus, a comprehensive economic evaluation indicator system of the impact of large-scale EV on power grid is established by all of these indicators. To validate the effectiveness of this evaluation indicator system, it is applied to the economic evaluation of large-scale EV in Beijing, the capital of China. 10% or 20% EV penetration under both the situation of uncontrolled charging mode and controlled charging mode are considered. The results show EVs in uncontrolled charging will generally bring negative economic effects, and the controlled charging mode can reduce the power cost significantly, which brings positive economic impact on power grid.","PeriodicalId":134414,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Smart Grid and Clean Energy Technologies (ICSGCE)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125151458","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}

We present a model-based analysis of lithium-ion battery degradation in smart microgrids, in particular, a single-family house and an office tract with photovoltaics generator. We use a multi-scale multi-physics model of a graphite/lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4, LFP) cell including SEI formation as ageing mechanism. The cell-level model is dynamically coupled to a system-level model consisting of photovoltaics, inverter, power consumption profiles, grid interaction, and energy management system, fed with historic weather data. The behavior of the cell in terms of degradation propensity, performance, state of charge and other internal states is predicted over an annual operation cycle. As result, we have identified a peak in degradation rate during the battery charging process, caused by charging overpotentials. Ageing strongly depends on the load situation, where the predicted annual capacity fade is 1.9 % for the single-family house and only 1.3 % for the office tract.","PeriodicalId":134414,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Smart Grid and Clean Energy Technologies (ICSGCE)","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116388910","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}

According to the characteristics of point of common coupling (PCC) photovoltaic and energy storage accessed to, extended QV bus-type is put forward in order to describe the feature of PCC more reasonably. The solution of power flow calculation with QV bus-type is also shown in this paper. Furthermore, a joint day-ahead scheduling of photovoltaic-storage is put forward in core view of voltage control at PCC. The two scenarios where whether the power output of energy storage system is beyond the limit are considered. When the power output beyond its limit, the bus-type is transformed. As a consequence, node voltage curve and joint power curves of photovoltaic-storage are thus gained. The result is comprehensively compared with the case where photovoltaic and energy storage operate with constant power. It shows that the strategy this paper proposed has a significant effect on suppressing voltage fluctuation, improving power flow, peak load shifting and so on.","PeriodicalId":134414,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Smart Grid and Clean Energy Technologies (ICSGCE)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129343781","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}

One approach was to apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) to SCADA data, comparing the predicted power output of a WTG and its actual output and using the prediction error as an indicator to detect faults. However, complicated training processes limit its application. This paper presents a normal behavior model (NBM), based on power output-generator speed (P-N) curve, to analyze SCADA data from modern pitch regulated WTGs for detecting anomalies. Through analysis of the operational characteristics of the pitch regulated WTG, it is found that inaccuracies in wind speed measurement, the inertia of the rotor, yaw and pitch misalignments, and air density fluctuation may affect the performance of the power curve monitoring algorithms. This paper shows that under normal conditions the P-N curve based NBM performs better when fitting the SCADA data to WTG output under normal conditions than the power curve. Results demonstrate that it can give alarm to forthcoming faults earlier than the existing condition monitoring system (CMS).","PeriodicalId":134414,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Smart Grid and Clean Energy Technologies (ICSGCE)","volume":"64 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116845186","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}

Plants installed in such location experience great loss since the gas turbine power output decreases with rising ambient temperature. Additionally, CCGTs are installed with supplementary firing which causes the overall power output to increase however the thermal efficiency decreases. This implies enormous potential for solar hybridization with such combined cycle plants. The inefficient supplemental firing can be eliminated improving the overall plant efficiency and reducing the Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Integration of solar power with Natural Gas Combined Cycle (NGCC) technology may be an intermediate step on the way to the optimum usage of renewable energy. Furthermore, an Integrated Solar Combined Cycle (ISCC) plant is a promising alternative to conventional solar thermal power plants and NGCC plants. This paper compares the efficiency of different power plant configurations in U.A.E using EBSILON Professional. Results have shown that ISCC plants have greater overall efficiency when compared to other plant configurations.","PeriodicalId":134414,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Smart Grid and Clean Energy Technologies (ICSGCE)","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115764026","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}
