Especially, under the islanding operation of the microgrid, the PV output fluctuation causes the instability of the system. Although batteries are installed to mitigate the instability, a control delay of the batteries affects the frequency and voltage of the micro-grid extensively. Generally, a control delay inevitably exists since the PV output is measured at every designated discrete time period and the control signal is sent to the batteries after calculating the difference between load and PV power output. Therefore, so as to reduce this time delay influences, the authors have proposed so called \"PV system with hybrid batteries\" which has two types of the batteries (AC side battery and DC side battery). In this system, since the DC side battery absorbs only the power fluctuation caused by the control delay of the AC side battery, the size of the DC side battery seems to be very small. The purpose of this paper is to develop a method to estimate the size of the DC side battery. Through the qualitative discussions, the maximum necessary capacity can be estimated from the amount of charge or discharge of the DC side battery when the PV output fluctuation cycle is the same as the one of the PV output measurement. The size of the DC side battery calculated by the developed method is verified through the real system applications.","PeriodicalId":257974,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia)","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114592125","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 increased penetration of disturbing loads such as electrified railways, single phase distributed generators and line-to-line connected industrial loads, VU levels can be exacerbated. Consequently, network operators are increasingly diligent in maintaining the network-wide VU within stipulated limits. VU management in general, is a synergy of a number of tasks covering proper planning, operation and application of active VU mitigation techniques. Application of power quality conditioning equipment such as static compensators (STATCOMs) at appropriate locations is one such unbalance mitigation technique, which can be seen in practical networks. This paper gives a comprehensive analysis of STATCOM based VU mitigation taking into account the influence made by location and the impedance of STATCOM and comparatively evaluates the management and mitigation techniques of VU with respect to a practical 66 kV sub-transmission network.","PeriodicalId":257974,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129525397","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 order to improve the performance of charging process, many charging methods have been proposed, such as multi-stage charging, pulse charging method, reflex charging method, etc. Such methods all need the corresponding battery charger to provide variable DC voltage or current to charge for the battery. Therefore, the DC-DC converter with fast dynamic performance can improve the performance of the different charging methods. However, traditional dual-active-bridge (T-DAB) based battery charger does not have a relatively fast dynamic performance. Therefore, this paper proposes a model predictive control for dual-active-bridge (MPC-DAB) based battery charger under dual-phase-shift (DPS) control with the Thevenin model for battery. Compared with the T-DAB based battery charger, MPC-DAB based battery charger possesses faster dynamic performance and lower overshoot.","PeriodicalId":257974,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128450797","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}

Large green field and brown field projects (often exceeding 1bn USD) are financed with locked in capital from the start, and typically take decades to return. Despite being one of the most important aspects of investment decision making, the prediction methodologies used widely today are not sophisticated enough to provide accurate insights for the investors. The new approach was proposed in this research to provide data analytics backed analysis for the performance of energy related commodities using innovative feature discovery methods and machine learning tools. In the presented research, a machine learning model was trained to predict the average monthly price of electricity in the next 5 years with focus on the California State energy market. Data points from 2001 to 2017 were collected and 78 data points are considered for analyses to select the highly-correlated features which could potentially affect the electricity price in the medium to long term. An economic case study is undertaken to understand the correlation of the features, and to avoid multicollinearity. In the next step, the selected features are applied into an S-ARIMA time series prediction algorithm. In addition, several feature-based machine learning algorithms are applied to the data and the results analysed and compared to find the effective forcasting approach. The findings demonstrated promising results for three years future price prediction horizon. Further studies are required to get more accurate electricity results beyond three years horizon.","PeriodicalId":257974,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia)","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124629091","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}

Based on the theory of time-sharing energy complementarity, this paper proposes a mathematical optimization model of the integrated output of Wind farm and CSP plant to suppress the power fluctuations. Then, by independently considering the impacts of the thermal storage capacity of CSP plant, the capacity optimization model of transmission line of wind power-CSP combined system is established. The case result demonstrates that the proposed method can reduce the investment cost of transmission line by reasonably configuring the thermal storage capacity of CSP.
