The involvement of the private sector which became necessary by the unbundling of the singular public utility company Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) has done little to improve the situation. This paper proposes the use of smart grid and distributed generation to improve the generation, transmission and distribution of electric power in the country. Smart Grid technologies which incorporates communication technologies into the conventional grid as we know, brings about adequacy in generation, transmission and distribution of power, which has so far been lacking in the contemporary Nigerian society. The communication systems incorporated in the smart grid allows a two-way communication between the utility company and consumers. This is needed in a situation such as ours as it gives consumers the power to regulate their consumption while giving the utility companies real time online information from the consumer end. Distributed generation on the other hand makes it possible to incorporate renewable energy sources which the country has in abundance into the power supply mix. This paper discusses the various benefits derivable from the use of these technologies as a solution to the epileptic and inadequate supply presently experienced in the country.","PeriodicalId":308661,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124422724","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}

Trust is central to the records in a ledger and the measurement of energy production or consumption must be dependable for confidence in an energy transaction. The case of measurement accuracy and error detection in a rural micro-grid is investigated for methods to enhance trust in energy exchanges. The suitability of state estimation as a technique is evaluated for mitigating inaccuracies in meter accuracy and therefore increasing trust. Application of the same principle for error detection, either from intentional meter tampering or faulty equipment is outlined. State estimation is found to provide a small improvement to the measurement of energy in a simple radial micro-grid, suggesting that with further work this method could benefit micro-grid operators and users seeking improvements to the accuracy and error detection.","PeriodicalId":308661,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114389883","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}

Having renewable distributed generation (RDG) in the power system not only brings benefits but there are other roles that RDG can play in the operation and control of the power system. This paper discusses power system restoration using Renewable-based Microgrids (RbM) after a blackout has occurred. The simulation model is developed in PowerFactory DIgSILENT SP 18. It consists of a cluster of renewable generators in microgrids that are coupled to the low voltage side of the IEEE 14 bus benchmark test system. The paper’s focus is on a PSR plan that employs renewable-based generation in microgrids to supply blackstart power to the power system central generators before PSR commences. This is compared to an instance when there are no RbMs available in the power system thus central generation is used for PSR. The voltage, frequency is monitored on different parts of the test system and the amount of load restored is recorded to determine the success of the restoration plan.","PeriodicalId":308661,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130164002","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}

Wind and solar energy distributed generators have been considered in this study due to their recent increase in penetration levels worldwide. Moreover, they have the highest potential for energy generation in Namibia. A system modeling and simulation studies were done in DigSILENT PowerFactory software tool. The study was carried out under three scenarios; at 0% penetration (base case), increased wind energy penetration and increased solar energy penetration. Wind and solar generators were integrated separately up to 150 MW each to cover the current generation deficit in Namibia. Thereafter, the impacts of each of these sources on the grid active power losses were analysed. The penetration of the wind distributed generators resulted in a decrease in power losses from 35.37MW at 44.77% to 33.46MW at 60.22%. However, an increase in power losses was later noticed as the penetration level increased to 70.52%. On the other hand, with solar energy penetration, the grid power losses continued to decrease from 34.94MW at 44.77% to 30.93MW at 70.52%. This decrease in the power losses is due to the reduced load current in the network.","PeriodicalId":308661,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134118262","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 batteries can be used to power a load as back-up power when there is no sunlight. This approach presents a constant output of 48 V charging voltage for the batteries even though the input voltage may vary depending on the amount of solar irradiation falling on the solar panel. Solar charge controllers are important components in such an off-grid system because they can be used to protect the battery bank from overcharging and regulate the charging current. The buck-boost converter is used as a solar charge controller to maximize the charging voltage when the solar irradiation provides less than the required output voltage. The DC-DC converter (buck-boost converter) was modelled using the SIMetrix software to demonstrate the expected output waveforms before building the complete PV power supply.","PeriodicalId":308661,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132627855","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}

This work presents the use of demand side management (DSM) as a tool to efficiently manage the inadequate electric power generated. The functionality of DMS involves optimizing the overall system load factor for reduction in peak demand and electricity bill of energy users. The study adopted mathematical algorithm to optimize system load factor, minimizing the peak load demand and energy cost of consumers of electricity. The peak load reduction was possible by shifting some loads from peak load period to off load period within operation hours. Using the available energy distribution profile of a Bottling Company in Nigeria as a case study, the Microsoft excel solver optimization tool was applied to respectively improve load factor, reducing energy cost and peak load demand of the company by 7.45%, 4.18% and 8.44% annually, considering a 24-hour company operation.","PeriodicalId":308661,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130854617","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}

Nigeria’s carbon footprint with respect to the emission of gases such as CO2, N2O, and the huge economic loss due to flaring has resulted in a colossal loss of financial resources. There is therefore a need to urgently address the negative impacts of gas flaring. In this paper, an attempt is made to quantify the financial losses resulting from flared gas and show how zero flaring can serve as a tool to mitigate Nigeria’s energy deficit. Finally, it is the view of the authors that Nigeria’s financial losses occasioned by gas flaring can become a source of power through a gas to power scheme and a source of revenue through a gas monetization scheme.","PeriodicalId":308661,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123227372","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}

A hydrological gauge is installed along the available river section to measure the water level for a period of one year, and water velocity with Flow Probe. The average daily solar irradiance of 265 W/m2 is obtained from a seven-year data collected from the Nigerian Meteorological Agency for the site. With a projection of a total annual energy demand of 176.7 MWh in the first year and 229 MWh in the tenth year, the annual energy generation from the hydropower is estimated at 2,624 MWh with a capacity factor of 0.83.
