In this paper, the voltage profile and power quality issues of a distribution network with distributed generator (DG) and series compensation are investigated. A doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based DG unit and a series capacitor (SC) and a thyristor-controlled series capacitor (TCSC) are considered for the analysis. Series compensation is implemented to reduce voltage drops in the line and...
This paper presents the dynamics of photovoltaic (PV) cell with Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) load. It is expected that PHEVs are going to be charged during the day with solar PV energy sources at the parking sites of PHEVs. The present work offers a complete system for charging PHEVs with PV cell where PHEVs load are modelled based on third order battery model. System dynamics are analyzed...
Flywheel energy storage (FES) has attracted new interest for uninterruptable power supply (UPS) applications in a facility microgrid. Due to technological advancements, the FES has become a promising alternative to traditional battery storage technologies. This paper aims at developing a tool to demonstrate the use of FES units for securing critical loads during a utility outage in a microgrid environment...
As Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles (PHEVs) take a greater share in the personal automobile market, their penetration levels may bring potential challenges to electric utility especially at the distribution level. This paper examines the impact of charging PHEVs on a distribution transformer under different charging scenarios. The simulation results indicate that at the PHEV penetration level of interest,...
