Therefore, discrete Kalman filter model based upon AR process and EM algorithm is applied in Dakar for a lead-time of 20 minutes. The model input parameters at time noticed by t, of the model at a time t, are air temperature, relative humidity and global solar radiation. Expectation at (t +T), is the global solar radiation. Input data are measured at the Polytechnic School of Dakar and cover one year. Results are verified using performance criteria such criteria such the nRMSE, nMAE, nMBE. Criteria values are of about 4.9% for the nRMSE, of 0.272% for the nMAE and about of-0.7% for the nMBE. Without considering the impact of temperature and relative humidity criteria calculation lead to following values : nRMSE of 4.8%, nMAE of 0.271% and nMBE of 0.4%. The analysis of the results showed that studied meteorological parameters have very soft influence (difference of nRMSE = 1% and nMAE = 0.001%) on the performances of the model and that the model without impact is perceived as the most efficient on the site.","PeriodicalId":427328,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Power and Energy Applications (ICPEA)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114342561","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}

Energy consumption can be significantly reduced by making people aware of their behavior as energy consumers. In this project we implement a Smart and Sustainable technology by adapting IoT based methodologies using Smart plugs for capturing data which is transferred through the Wireless-gateway to the central database [1]. The system is designed in way that the Smart plugs can be switched on/off when not in use from the central server. Due to this facility a system has been enabled to turn off the smart plugs apart from office hours. Moreover we have also performed a deep analysis on the amount of energy saved by implementing our system by comparing it with the total energy consumed before implementing the system. Using the data obtained from the smart plug various approaches are adapted to identify the consumer behaviour and take necessary effort in order to minimize the total energy consumption. A Time-series based analysis has been implemented and Forecast of total energy consumption has been obtained [2], [3].","PeriodicalId":427328,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Power and Energy Applications (ICPEA)","volume":"248 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132055534","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 results in having a large space requirement for solar power generation for a considerable megawatt output. Present technologies that offer high efficiencies are mostly based on very costly materials like Gallium-Arsenide (GaAs). The silicon processing technique of manufacturing monocrystalline cells also makes it costly for large-scale power generation requirements. This paper tries to propose a novel alternative solution to the problem by incorporating cheaply available alkali metal like Sodium as metallic photocathodes connected to the n-doped side of the photovoltaic cell that is exposed sunlight instead of solely using silver contacts to improve the efficiency of the typical polycrystalline photovoltaic cell. Sodium can also be laid out as a metal track around the cell, depending on the production cost and spatial requirements.","PeriodicalId":427328,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Power and Energy Applications (ICPEA)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130271026","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 key advantage of the presented control approach is that it takes less computational time compared to its conventional counterpart. In this approach, the SPV system is uniquely controlled to operate as a multifunctional inverter by incorporating harmonic filtering capability. The SPV system with presented control can, therefore, be utilized i) as multifunctional inverter to inject the active power generated from SPV system to the utility grid, and ii) as active power filter (APF) with harmonic filtering capability to acquire various features including source current harmonic attenuation, load reactive current compensation, source currents balancing, in addition to, power factor correction (PFC). Since the SPV system is based on the UVT-based approach, it accurately estimates the reference currents for the voltage-sourced converter (VSC). The 3P4W topology is utilized in this paper in order to confront the neutral current issue in the power distribution network, as this topology has inherent neutral current mitigation capability. A perturb and observe (P&O) based tracker is employed to identify and track the maximum power point (MPP). The practicality of SPV system with presented control is tested and elucidated using MATLAB/Simulink simulation studies. Finally, the proposed VSC controlled SPV system is validated through a comprehensive set of experimental studies on laboratory developed prototype.","PeriodicalId":427328,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Power and Energy Applications (ICPEA)","volume":"121 8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126320801","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 aim of this study is to optimize the existing capacitor banks and obtain the maximum benefits by evaluating the capacitor banks' status & condition, controllers' settings, and analyzing their functionalities in conjunction with network assets based on real time measurements. The analysis was divided into two different approaches based on capacitor banks locations in AADC network, as the capacitor banks operation concept is totally different between the banks installed in primary substations (directly connected to 11kV busbars consisting of several stages) and the ones installed at 11kV overhead lines (OHL) of one stage and usually smaller in capacity size. In this paper, the classification is done based on network characteristic and banks' controller types as well as operational concept. AADC has more than 350 capacitor banks installed in primary substations and 11kV OHLs with approximately 930MVAR installed capacity providing high potential of reaching high power factor if operated and controlled well. The paper also explores the economic impact of the expected capacitor banks operation enhancement by saving energy and reducing power losses.","PeriodicalId":427328,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Power and Energy Applications (ICPEA)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127973294","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}
