Designing the European balancing market is one of today important focus of ACER and ENTSO-E, where the providers of balancing services are either large generators or aggregated resources which are offered through specific actors. The paper focuses on designing applicable solutions for measuring the balancing services in a unitary approach, which makes possible the participation of small or large resources...
The paper presents the solution of combining voltage level monitoring and control in the distribution network of Terni, Italy, in presence of high level of photovoltaic (PV) production. In order to achieve the goal, new Unbundled Smart Meter (USM) concept has been considered at the level of the metering point of each PV production facility. The Smart Meter eXtension (SMX) of the USM is used for transmitting...
This paper addresses the issue of power quality management in smart grids. Present development of smart grid technologies such as smart metering are continuously generating novel opportunities and breakthroughs for improving the distribution system performance. This paper proposes a novel approach to be implemented in the new generation of smart meters. This alternative method for harmonics and voltage...
Within last decade, the energy resources evolved significantly in the renewable area and installed capacity exploded with large impact on the distribution grid area as well. Energy management is supported by EMS-SCADA systems operated by TSO-s and by DMS-SCADA systems operated by DO-s. Such evolution of the generation installations are bringing more and more challenges for the systems stability purpose...
Integrating social and sensor networks can transform big data, if treated as a knowledge commons, into a higher form of collective awareness that can motivate users to self-organize and create innovative solutions to various socioeconomic problems. The Web extra at http://youtu.be/xSoAvMNZSL8 is a video in which author Jeremy Pitt expands on his article "Transforming Big Data into Collective...
This paper presents a solution for integrating Electrical Vehicles in the Smart Grid through unbundled Smart Metering and Virtual Power Plant technology dealing with multiple objectives. Within this frame, EV can benefit of cost-effective energy during the charging period but can also provide multiple ancillary services to the network, by wisely using their storage capability and their flexibility...
