For this study, several wind-tunnel experiments under realistic in situ wind speed conditions have been conducted to examine the performance of galloping energy harvester. Next, a novel structural reliability approach is presented here that is especially well suited for multi-dimensional energy harvesting systems that have been either numerically simulated or analog observed during the representative time lapse, yielding an ergodic system time record. As demonstrated in this study, the advocated methodology may be used for risk assessment of dynamic system structural damage or failure. Furthermore, traditional reliability methodologies dealing with time series do not easily cope with the system’s high dimensionality, along with nonlinear cross-correlations between the system’s components. This study’s objective was to assess state-of-the-art reliability method, allowing efficient extraction of relevant statistical information, even from a limited underlying dataset. The methodology described in this study aims to assist designers when assessing nonlinear multidimensional dynamic energy harvesting system’s failure and hazard risks.","PeriodicalId":239966,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Energy Research","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134908896","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}

However, certain systems are more cost-effective and efficient than others, and they are not only more expensive but also far more harmful to the environment. To make up for the energy shortage in unconnected remote regions and urban areas with linked networks, renewable energies offer an alternative. This effort is focused on eliminating both load shedding and the pollution caused by conventional power plants that burn fossil fuels. In order to improve the interconnected Northern Cameroon grid, researchers looked into the possibility of using the permanently accessible sun and wind at the Waibé-Lokoro-Kalfou location in Cameroon. For the hot and humid climate of Waibé-Lokoro, Cameroon, based on four distributed generations, four combinations were established in the scenario. The goal was to maximize the net present value while minimising the energy expense. Electricity costs were found to drop from USD 0.097/kWh to USD 0.085/kWh under the PV-Wind-Grid-Battery scenario, saving a total of USD 0.54 million in net present cost. The particle swarm optimization method (PSO), genetic algorithmic algorithm (GA), cuckoo search approaches (CSA), as well as whale optimization algorithm (WOA) were utilized to calculate power losses as well as system size allocation. PSO was the only algorithm to converge quickly. The level of distortion caused by harmonics is measured experimentally to verify that power grid connectivity regulations are being followed. The standards for the IEEE 33-bus as well as IEEE 69-bus tests provide more precise voltage profiles for use in loss evaluation.
