The inverter employed with SPV system for supplying active power to the grid/load can be made multifunctional i.e. it also serves as DSTATCOM when SPV power is not available (The arrangement is called PV-DSTATCOM). For such an arrangement the need for the actually installed DSTATCOM for voltage regulation and temporary over voltage control can be either minimized or altogether eliminated, bringing a significant savings for the utility. The intention of this review is to provide a broad view on configuration, topologies, and control techniques to the researchers and engineers working on power quality improvement. More than 100 research publications on the topologies, configuration, control techniques and applications of distribution static compensator have been thoroughly reviewed and classified for quick reference.","PeriodicalId":6584,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference and Utility Exhibition on Green Energy for Sustainable Development (ICUE)","volume":"3 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87400198","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}

It results a number of measures adopted by utility for reliability improvement. Moreover, distributed generators (DGs) are also enhanced to integrate to distribution system because DGs improve system reliability and capability. However, DGs can lead to mis-operation of protective devices and wider outage areas in power system due to increase in fault level. Moreover, system outage is the vital cause which decreases the system reliability. To mitigate escalation of fault level, fault current limiters (FCLs) are installed to limit incremental fault generated by DGs and improve system reliability. However, to enhance effectiveness of FCLs installation, non-dominated sorting particles swarm optimization (NSPSO) is adopted to find the optimal placement of FCLs. Moreover, novel binary particle swarm optimization and continuous particle swarm optimization are performed optimization simultaneously for selecting installed locations. Therefore, three objectives are considered in optimization process consist of to minimize total cost of fault current limiters installed, to minimize total different of margin operating time of main and backup relay pairs and to maximize system reliability. The optimal results are the set of various solutions conform with multi-objective placed in pareto optimal front, and the result show effectiveness of combined continuous-binary NSPSO. The optimization process is carried out on IEEE 33-bus and IEEE-69 bus radial system.","PeriodicalId":6584,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference and Utility Exhibition on Green Energy for Sustainable Development (ICUE)","volume":"48 1","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78701779","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}

Enormous amount of fossil fuels, viz. coal, gas, oil, etc. are extracted, converted, distributed and consumed by the society on daily basis for various activities. The limited stock of fossil fuels and its end result as global warming forced scientists to harness energy from nonconventional resources. Renewable energy, such as solar, wind, geothermal, ocean tidal waves are the best proven sources of energy. Solar energy is one of the most abundant and cheap resources among these. Solar energy is converted into electrical energy with the help of photovoltaic solar panels. Solar energy is maximized when the sunrays fall perpendicular on the panel. The rigid fixed type conventional solar panels have restriction to receive maximum sunrays because of changing angle of incidence. Automatic sun tracking system is the solution to harness maximum solar energy by facing the sun whole day.","PeriodicalId":6584,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference and Utility Exhibition on Green Energy for Sustainable Development (ICUE)","volume":"14 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90657677","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}

Global Construction 2030 – forecasts the volume of construction. Global Construction Perspectives and Oxford Economics - shows average global construction growth of 3.9% pa to 2030, outpacing that of global GDP by over one percentage point, driven by developed countries recovering from economic instability and emerging countries continuing to industrialize output will grow by 85% to $15.5 trillion worldwide by 2030. This astounding growth in building structures reflects obviously in energy consumption and in turn carbon footprint. There is a need to assess energy efficiency status of the buildings that would enable taking up appropriate energy conservation measures throughout the lifecycle of a building. In this regard, the traditional on-site physical audit suffers with limitations in terms of deployment, installation, human resource and scalability in overall execution, making it techno-economically less attractive and time consuming.The present paper provides practical application and validation of an innovative tool that enables performance assessment of buildings to uncover energy efficiency improvements in buildings and facilities remotely. This tool uses multi-physics principles wherein entire building is analyzed based on fundamental energy and work transfer principles using laws of thermodynamics, heat transfer and mass transfer. This innovative tool enables cost efficient energy savings through a virtual energy audit conducted remotely.In the present work, the case study from India, in particular academic building, industrial building and commercial building are considered as a candidate for virtual energy audit. The results depict that virtual energy audit is holistic and accurate evaluation and analysis of candidate’s current energy use. The results enable take informed and educated decisions for prioritizing energy conservation measures to improve energy efficiency.","PeriodicalId":6584,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference and Utility Exhibition on Green Energy for Sustainable Development (ICUE)","volume":"79 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83785949","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 results showed that between 00 AM and 07AM, the temperature of the indoor air is approximately 20 ° C and increases gradually until 02 PM when the temperature reaches its peak 30 ° C. However, the total incident solar radiation receives varies from a face to another and the roof received the largest due to its horizontal orientation. The heat received by a face reaches its peaks dependently on its orientation. There is a phase shift in the heat transfer received by the envelope. This is possible due to the thermal inertia of the envelope’s constituent materials, property that allows the building envelope to dampen the heat received and to phase out the transmission time to ensure thermal comfort in the home.","PeriodicalId":6584,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference and Utility Exhibition on Green Energy for Sustainable Development (ICUE)","volume":"2 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84222629","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 selected boiler for this work has thermal power output of 90 kWth using firewood as primary fuel. The main objective is to design and develop multi-fuel feeding system to accept other available biomass applicable to existing burner with minimal modifications of the main structure. After the burner was refitted with the feeding system, the optimum surplus combustion air was studied for three types of solid fuels; corn cob, wood chips and biomass pellets. A breakpoint analysis was conducted for each biomass fuel. It was found that before burner modification, the highest values of thermal efficiency of fire wood burner were 40.52%. After the change of burner feeding in accordance with air input improvements, the thermal efficiency of the burner for corn cob, wood chip and pellets were 54.18 %, 50.46 % and 69.41 % respectively. The semiautomatic fuel feed can be readily utilized for all three fuel types and feed rate could be reduced by 58.1.1%, 58.2% and 70.63% by weight respectively compared with firewood. It is also found that biomass pellets are the most suitable alternative fuel for roasting of parchment coffee with the lowest processing cost in comparison with other biomasses.","PeriodicalId":6584,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference and Utility Exhibition on Green Energy for Sustainable Development (ICUE)","volume":"39 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85588848","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}

Monte Carlo simulation based probabilistic power flow considering stochastic nature of wind and solar power generation and uncertainty of load variation are employed. The proposed method is simple that used open source MATLAB software including MATPOWER tools to analyse and design low voltage and medium voltage feeder. This method can furnish several choices to utilities/owners to place WT-DGs and PV-DGs at different suitable nodes.
