Such a mismatch may pose a threat to the frequency stability of the power system. The proposed scheme focuses mainly on three aspects of load shedding, viz., when, how-much and where to shed the load. The load shedding requirement is assessed by computing the disturbance power, utilizing the synchrophasor measurements. Next, by selecting the total real power generation, total real power demand, rate of change of frequency, and real power reserves in the system as the input neurons to an Artificial Neural Network, the minimum amount of load shedding is determined to maintain the stability of the system. Lastly, the load shedding amount is effectively distributed among various load buses, based on the novel concept of electrical distance, in order to arrest the situation. The effectiveness of the proposed Sy-UFLS scheme is demonstrated on New England 39-bus system under various test cases and found to be superior than the conventional UFLS scheme.","PeriodicalId":444960,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT ASIA)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130562682","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 effect of increasing the embedded degree of complexity of the single diode model is explored by comparing the dynamic performance of particular PV modules with the experimental validated data under varying the atmospheric conditions. The main motivation for this work is to determine an accurate and less complicated PV single diode model that is suitable for correctly characterize the PV systems under all environmental conditions and that can be efficiently used in any power system study especially those targeting maximum power point tracking. The relative errors between each PV single diode model output and the experimentally validated data are computed at three indicative points namely open circuit voltage, short circuit current and maximum power point. The comparison study in this paper ends up with determining the relevant single diode model at low, medium and high temperature and irradiance level as well as at standard test conditions.","PeriodicalId":444960,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT ASIA)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127778697","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 study was achieved in the workshop of the Electrotechnics Department of the Faculty of Technological Sciences-University Constantine 1, Algeria, using the PV panels installed on the roof of the workshop. The study concerned the realization of a conversion chain based on a DC boost chopper and a two-level voltage inverter. The control circuit of the DC chopper was analogically performed on the basis of the hysteresis technique. The method of the short-circuit current was used for determining the MPPT and carrying out the reference current. The two-level inverter was numerically controlled using a carrier-based PWM implemented in a dSPACE board interface compatible with MATLAB/Simulink software. For storing the produced PV energy, four acid sulfuric batteries were utilized. The realized conversion chain was interconnected with a grid of a very low voltage. The presented practical results focused on the analogical MPPT hysteresis controller output and the digital carrier-based PWM controller output. The obtained results seem to be in perfect agreement with the presented theory and to be very promising.","PeriodicalId":444960,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT ASIA)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127713013","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}

Design of such filters is a challenging problem when considering factors for the filter design such as inverter specifications and ratings. This paper proposes a trial-and-error based algorithm to obtain viable L and LCL filter parameters which comply with standards requirements and inverter ratings. Filter parameters are studied and the IEEE-1547 standard is adopted for the algorithm decision making.

DGs are suitable both for stand-alone and grid-tied applications. When operated in stand-alone, they could provide electricity for non-grid connected homes. However, in a grid-tied mode, they could supply power to households which are already connected to the network, providing the users with the opportunity to sell back excess energy to the grid. In this paper, we present the benefits of DG from the residential perspective. Case studies were conducted for two different locations - Nigeria and New Zealand, with dissimilar energy resources and demands. We simulate different off-grid and grid-connected systems, to obtain the energy configurations with the optimal component sizes and costs of energy. The energy technologies examined are solar, wind and diesel generator systems. The simulation results reveal that DGs have the potential to offer clean, cost-effective and reliable energy solutions for household applications.","PeriodicalId":444960,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT ASIA)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134338460","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}

Aiming at reducing the periodic, costly wide-area communication of monitoring data between the PVs and the VPP, we introduce and validate in this paper our approach of Model Predictive PV Control Communication (MPCC). Leveraging a dedicated Efficient PV Production (EPVP) model which synchronously estimates the PV production on both ends of the wide-area communication path, i.e. the DERs and the VPP, the amount of transmitted monitoring data can be reduced considerably (up to 100% depending on weather conditions and acceptable prediction error). The introduced EPVP model is validated with real-life data of various PV systems. Finally, the proper parametrization and efficiency of the proposed MPCC has been analysed for various weather conditions.","PeriodicalId":444960,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT ASIA)","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129125374","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}
