The majority of states/provinces now have renewable portfolio standards, with many requiring that over 20 percent of electricity sales be generated by renewable energy sources within the next five to fifteen years. A combination of public policy, incentives and economics is driving a rapid growth of distributed generation in the electric power system. The majority of these requirements will be addressed...
Volt-Var Optimization (VVO) is a renovated smart grid technology that utilized the advance smart grid assets such as Advance Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Distribution Management System (DMS) and Advanced Communication System. VVO offers energy savings with associated reduction in green house gas emission and other directly or indirectly benefits to customers and/or utilities. The main function of...
An electric drive performance is highly influenced by the potential of the controller employed. For high-performance Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive, Vector control techniques are preferred over other methods. Due to the non-linear dynamics and time-varying parameters of PMSM, its control is a significant issue. This paper investigates the application of a fuzzy logic controller for...
This paper presents modelling and simulation of DC-DC converter with matrix converter as its basic topology. The proposed converter performs the four quadrant chopper operation. This topology can perform many different converter functions. This DC-DC converter can be utilized in speed control of dc motor in electric automobiles and traction where supply is dc voltage. The simulation model was developed...
The increasing global warming concerns and diminishing fossil fuels have made us necessary to look for alternative sources of energy. Fuel Cell technology holds promise towards sustainable power generation, it being pollution free and using readily available fuels. This paper presents the modeling, control and design analysis of a three-phase Grid-interactive Fuel Cell system with active filter functions...
