In this paper, we propose a fully distributed control approach to deal with voltage violations in a subtransmission network with high penetration of wind power. The controllers used are virtual power plants (VPPs) in the subtransmission network. During the control process, each load bus monitors its own bus voltage. If there is a voltage violation detected, then all VPPs will be activated at once...
Identification of malfunctioned PV panels in a large-scale PV plant requires panel-level health checks. A power line communication (PLC) on PV cables may be helpful for gathering health monitoring status (e.g., voltage and temperature) from each panel. However, conventional PLCs, work in parallel-connected cases, cannot be simply applied to series-connected cases, whose configurations are very common...
The development of smart grid, electric vehicles (EV), and integration of renewable energy sources (RES) changes the existing power grid. Volt-VAR optimization (VVO) is a well-known problem to reduce the losses along the distribution lines. Current VVO does not endorse the role of elastic and inelastic loads, EVs, and RESs to decrease the reactive losses and hence the cost of generation. We propose...
By utilizing an inherently symmetrical differential structure, several boost DC/DC converters can be used to construct a multi input DC/DC or DC/AC converter. The use of integral state feedback based pole placement control strategy has been reported in the literature to control this type of converter. However, this control method is based on the small signal model of the circuit and highly dependent...
