Future smart grids will require an observable, controllable and flexible network architecture for reliable and efficient energy delivery. The use of artificial intelligence and advanced communication technologies is essential in building a fully automated system. This paper introduces a new technique for online optimal operation of distributed generation (DG) resources, i.e. a hybrid fuel cell (FC)...
Micro-grids are among the basic components in the future distributed generation smart grid systems. The transmission efficiency improvements and the utilization of renewable energy sources are some of the key advantages of using micro-grids in power systems. In this paper, the technical and economical study of implementing a micro-grid system at an educational institution is discussed and presented...
Subsidy programs for new energy technologies are by motivated by the experience curve: Increased adoption of a technology leads to learning and economies of scale that lower costs. There is a need for improved models of technological diffusion in order to inform choices in subsidy programs. In this research we explore how geographic variability in factors that determine the economic performance of...
This paper focuses on the management of recovered thermal energy of a hybrid wind energy and grid-parallel PEM fuel cell power plant (FCPP) with the object of achieving optimal cost. The fluctuating nature of wind energy (WE) has a different effect on the system operational cost and constraints. Besides, FCPPs are capable of producing both electrical and thermal energy. Combining WE and FCPP in a...
Energy is the bedrock of our daily lives and industry. Now is the time that industry, government and academia must join together and examine highly independent, fully environmentally considerate and rational energy systems. In this presentation, recent Japanese policy will be introduced focusing on new national energy strategy. Looking at future technology trends, it is probable that, in the case...
