The liberalization of electricity markets in Europe was a highly-debated topic in the last thirty years. Almost three decades after the start of the deregulation processes, performances obtained by the introduction of competition in the electricity markets are still difficult to be perceived by final consumers. Until now, the assumption that the deregulated electricity markets naturally generate lower...
This paper deals with distribution companies (DISCOs) point of view on opportunities of optimizing investments planning and operation costs, considering possible increase and geographical displacement of high consumption buses, increasing the consumption at different time instants in other buses, by optimally installing and sizing distributed energy resources. The optimization problem is sizing and...
An energy-informatic-centric smart campus represents a viable structure addressing to different groups of users, like: students, teachers/educators, researchers and technical administrators, using information and communications technology system interface for accessing various services and requiring real time information regarding university buildings energy consumption and production, air quality...
This paper analyzes the optimized operation of smart campus on the electricity market for maximizing his overall profit. The smart campus has the character of a virtual power plant with distributed energy resources with stochastic power and dispatchable classical generating units. The load is represented by the campus consumptions which can be shifted daily to accomplish the desired goals. This smart...
In recent decades there have been major changes in production systems, electricity transmission, both from the technological point of view that regulatory and economic. European community is moving in the direction of Smart City (SC) and ICT in order to achieve the objectives of the 20-20-20 energy efficiency, energy conservation and use of renewable sources in 2020. Another element that determines...
On behalf of the Organising Committee of the 2014 16th International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (ICHQP), we welcome all delegates and visitors to Bucharest.
The present paper deals with the case study of an existing ac arc furnace facility. A field measuring campaign was carried out for an industrial consumer. One of the many aspects of power quality that can affect electricity users is voltage fluctuation that causes lights to flicker. The main power quality indices regarding flicker levels are reported in the paper with reference to the current standards.
In this article was examined the technical and economic potential of connecting the high voltage electricity networks of three countries with a new high voltage transmission line. The analysis investigated options and technical recommendations for the optimal configuration a 750 kV transmission corridor. In doing so, it was recognized reconnection of the corridor holds the promise of improving energy...
