In particular it evaluates how networks, e.g. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) and decentralized Virtual Private Network (VPN) can help set up an agent-based system. It is expected that applications on Smart Grid devices will become more powerful and be able to operate without a central control instance. We analyze which requirements agents and Smart Grid devices place on communication systems and validate promising approaches. The main focus is to create a logical overlay network that provides direct communication between network nodes. We provide a comparison of different approaches of P2P networks and mesh-VPNs. Finally the advantages of mesh-VPN for agent-based systems are worked out.","PeriodicalId":244881,"journal":{"name":"2012 3rd IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Europe (ISGT Europe)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122560912","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}

Electric vehicles (EV) play therefore a substantial role, and are strongly supported for their market appearance while at the same time, they pose substantial challenges for the electric grid infrastructure. In contrast to the current gasoline fuel stations, electric charging stations do depend on the conditions of the power grid they are connected to. Based on the generation profile, these conditions vary regarding the provided power level. We present an approach for dynamic on-site reservation (locally on a single charging station) for instant charging needs increasing the efficiency and exploits the local quick charging capacities for the charging station owner and the conditions of the power grid.

Grid voltage stabilizing load models, such as developed for distributed energy resources, can be applied to electric vehicle chargers as well. A fleet of 10 electric vehicles is considered, modeled according to current Flemish mobility behavior. For this fleet, different voltage droop load models for the chargers are discussed in terms of charging duration increase, grid losses and grid voltages. Load flow simulations are performed for a real and highly loaded residential grid in Belgium. In the worst case, the average charging rate is reduced to 0.847 pu of the nominal charging rate (4 kW). Accordingly, regardless of charging coordination, deviation from power set points will occur, thereby mitigating the impact on the grid. Furthermore, electric vehicle chargers equipped with voltage droop load models present robust, fault-tolerant behavior at times the coordination of the vehicles is hampered.","PeriodicalId":244881,"journal":{"name":"2012 3rd IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Europe (ISGT Europe)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127741923","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}

To overcome these problems a self-sustaining monitoring and control system for low voltage grids has been developed, which monitors the actual power flow situation and controls individual decentralized generation units and consumer loads if necessary. In this context new approaches for power flow calculation and control intelligence are inevitable. This paper describes a newly developed power flow algorithm to be used for online-monitoring of the grid state. In case of critical grid states identified by this power flow algorithm a control intelligence determines and executes possible strategies for elimination of the critical grid state. The developed algorithms have been tested and validated in comprehensive scenarios in consideration of plausibility, calculation speed and reliability of the results.","PeriodicalId":244881,"journal":{"name":"2012 3rd IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Europe (ISGT Europe)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114934608","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 Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) building HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air-Conditioning) facilities are popular in modern buildings in Japan, Europe, and other countries. The VRF HVAC type uses sophisticated refrigerant flow control devices. We propose a fine-time-granularity fast demand control scheme that replaces traditional coarse and slow demand controls, such as on/off adjustment of power consumption. However, the power consumption forecast of the VRF's devices for the entire building is extremely complicated. Therefore, we chose statistical forecast model approach. A 5-minute-interval Auto-Regressive (AR) model system identification was introduced. We conducted a trial simulation of fine-time-granularity fast demand control using our 5-minute-interval AR model as a preliminary evaluation for actual experiments.","PeriodicalId":244881,"journal":{"name":"2012 3rd IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Europe (ISGT Europe)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134095440","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}
