The renewable energy sources and plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are becoming very popular because of the combination of high fuel costs and concerns about emission issues. This paper presents modelling and control of a ...

In this paper a new algorithm based on phasor measurements for estimating the Thévenin Equivalent (TE) and system inertia constant is proposed. The method estimates the network TE seen from a generator terminal and equivalent ...

Maximum power point tracking controller is essential to obtain the maximum power from a solar array in the photovoltaic systems as the PV power module varies with the temperature and solar irradiation. In this paper, several ...

In most industrial zones, electric energy is one of the most important energy sources. Since electrical motors are the main energy consumers of industrial factories, consumption optimization in these motors can be considered ...

With the development of restructured power systems and increase of prices in some hours of day and increase fuel price, demand response programs were noticed more by customers. demand response consists of a series of ...

This paper proposes a stochastic framework for demand response (DR) aggregator to procure DR from customers and sell it to purchasers in the wholesale electricity market. The aggregator assigns fixed DR contracts with ...

Electric and hybrid electric vehicles are attractive candidates for sustainable transportation due to its higher efficiency and low emission. The critical choice on the electric motors is its capability of motoring and ...

Reliability evaluation of a large-scale composite power system faces to numerous events/outage and consequently imposes an extensive burden of calculations. In order to simplify the problem, determination of an equivalent ...
