Australia is selected once again to be one of the first countries to install the updated Powerwall Battery solution (Powerwall 2.0 system) due to its tariff structure, high solar radiation values, and high electricity prices. This updated version stores double the energy (13.2 kWh), is 30% smaller in size and similar in cost. The aim of this paper is to analyze the economic feasibility of four scenarios...
This article aims at assessing the environmental life-cycle impacts of electricity generation in Porto Santo island. Three different existing technologies are taken into account in this assessment: a central thermal power plant, photovoltaic systems and windmills. For each technology, the life-cycle assessment methodology is applied to quantify the environmental impacts for the following categories:...
In this paper, an artificial neural network is proposed for estimating the electricity produced by small scale photovoltaic (PV) roof-top plants. The two main objectives of this work are: i) to determine whether the system is functioning properly and if there is a failure in the system, and ii) to estimate the magnitude of energy produced for the upcoming day by every PV system. Based on the result...
The feed-in tariff for PV Systems in many countries have been reduced over the last few years. The purpose of this paper is to determine the level of returns, from the investors perspective, from PV projects in Montenegro and in Serbia. Two case studies are included in this paper with different sizes of solar photovoltaic systems (1.04 kW and 5.20 kW). Each case study includes three different consumption...
The increasing number of electric vehicles (EVs) in the near future will require control systems endowed with adequate algorithms able to manage their recharging process and avoiding massive investment in reinforcement of low voltage distribution network infrastructure. The deployment of EVs as an alternative to internal combustion engines will pose new challenges for electric power systems, grid...
