Day-ahead peak load forecasting is an essential tool for generation units scheduling, unit commitment and generally, in power systems operation in short-term horizon. The scope of the present study is to develop a robust peak load forecasting model for the power system of Greece. The peak load series is decomposed via the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) into low-frequency and high-frequency subseries...
Demand Side Management (DSM) refers to a set of measures targeting at load modifications in periods of high electricity generation costs, supply shortage and grid" s techno-economic constrains. This paper proposes a novel DSM strategy for load management of consumers that are eligible for the implementation of Real-Time Pricing (RTP) schemes. The DSM strategy is formulated as a constrained optimization...
The objective of this paper is the design and development of an autonomous vehicle which would be able to harvest saffron flowers unsupervised. This vehicle will be able to collect the flowers of the saffron unharmed. The time for the harvest isn’t more than the time needed by a human to accomplish the same task. Moreover, this procedure must be more cost effective compared to the same task accomplished...
Two smart-grid topologies are analyzed in this paper. The first one has two main differences from the traditional grid, a dc-bus and a smart integration module (SIM), which interconnects the dc- with the ac-bus. The second topology has only one difference from the traditional grid, a special control unit (SCU), which is attached to each device before connecting to the grid. The first topology has...
