The study is conducted in a scenario which forecasts the number of electric vehicles and energy consumption segmented by fleet types until 2030. One of the objectives pursued was the creation of a demand profile based on a survey conducted among electric vehicle drivers. According to the Bass diffusion model implemented, the fleet will reach 17,700 electric vehicles in 2030 and will represent 7.80% of the power demanded in the city during peak demand hours. A growth rate of 46.18% should occur between 2025 and 2030. The forecast of energy consumption with the charge of electric vehicles is 123.27 TWh by 2030, approximately 16.37 % of the total Brazilian consumption.","PeriodicalId":241987,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE/PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition (T&D)","volume":"156 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122185200","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}

The development of microgrids with high proportion of renewable energy resources is in the increase due to their tendency to reduce carbon emission and improve operation economy. Wider microgrid inclusion in is expected to support the distribution system operation. Unlike in the uncoordinated planning approach where individual microgrid owner has decision autonomy, the coordinated approach affects the decision-making of the microgrids, and it limits their profitability. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of planning and operating multiple microgrids having short- and long-term PPAs on distribution system operation, customer energy bill, microgrids' returns on investments and cumulative net-present worth under coordinated and uncoordinated integration approaches. Case studies is performed on a modified IEEE 33 Bus System consisting of three microgrids and a system operator. Simulation results are presented with relevant conclusions to guide microgrid inclusion in the system.","PeriodicalId":241987,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE/PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition (T&D)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122841123","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}

Also, the TPL-007 Standard [1]** requires evaluation of GIC Thermal Capability of installed power transformers expected to be subjected to certain levels of GIC under specific Benchmark and Supplemental GMD Scenarios. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate that the GIC Thermal Capability of a transformer is a strong function of the design of that transformer and that the GIC Thermal Capability of transformers of the same core type vary from a low value to a much higher value. Additionally, the paper presents impact of Load and duration of GIC pulses on the GIC Thermal Capability of transformers. In performing the studies reported in this paper, heating of structural parts of transformers was used for the thermal evaluations. This is since the thermal impact on the structural parts has been found to be much greater than that on windings [2]. Part I of this paper deals with GIC Thermal Capability of Core form Transformers while Part II deals with GIC Thermal Capability of Shell form Transformers.","PeriodicalId":241987,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE/PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition (T&D)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115024731","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}

SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) has normalised remote working; many electricity users in rural areas now have higher requirements for electricity service continuity. The drive to de-carbonise is promoting the adoption of e-transport and e-heat. Both further raise the criticality of supply continuity and reliability. Mitigating the risk of ignition of wildfires is a further driver. These drivers are increasing the number of utilities migrating from low resistance to high impedance neutral earthing at medium voltage (MV). Such migrations present challenges around changes to protection and operating regimes. This paper reviews common historical practice, then focuses on enhanced compensated neutral treatments, including active injection and faulted phase earthing. Outcomes of trial migration are included. Such solutions provide high levels of safety, supply continuity, supply quality, low energy release and operational simplicity.

The distinctive fault characteristic of IBRs makes the protection of the inverter-based microgrids rather uniquely challenging. This paper tries to shed light on the current challenges in the protection of the IBMs by providing time-domain simulations. Two possible solutions to address some of the main challenges are also discussed by providing simulation-based results using MATLAB Simulink software.","PeriodicalId":241987,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE/PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition (T&D)","volume":"211 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133862242","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 paper, three commercially-available medium-voltage-level current sensors are characterized in terms of their harmonic amplitude and phase performance against reference signals that are “played back” through the sensors through the use of an arbitrary waveform generator. It is shown that none of the three sensors studied are able to faithfully replicate all of the input signals completely, though there are advantages and disadvantages to each in terms of noise, resonance, and induced phase drift. Additionally, the Goodness-of-Fit metric, typically used for PMU model validation, is used to generate side-by-side comparisons of sensor accuracy over a small window around the events under study.","PeriodicalId":241987,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE/PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition (T&D)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134354952","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}

With the large influx of renewable technologies recently introduced into the electric power system, referred to as distributed energy resources (DER), creates many challenges to adequately maintain existing protection schemes. Protection engineers design protection systems to safely eliminate faults from the electric power system that was exclusively built with rotating machines (which have quite a different behavior under fault than inverter-based sources). As the penetration level of DER increases, the adverse impacts from DER is no longer to be considered minimal. With DER becoming influential in the distribution system, the current utility protection strategy merits a comprehensive investigation. This paper discusses major protection issues caused by DERs and provides utility-verified solutions based on more than 500 DER interconnection project system impact studies.
