This paper deals with the problem of coordinated operation of wind power with photovoltaic power in order to find optimal bid submission in a day-ahead electricity market. Uncertainty not only due to the electricity market price, but also due to wind and photovoltaic powers is handled in the context of a problem of stochastic linear programming. Additionally, the impact of the increase of the photovoltaic...
The quest to meet the ever increasing demand for energy coupled with the need to curtail the emission of CO2 has led to the deployment of renewable energy sources into the electrical network over the past decades. This development, although very desirable, comes with the known downside of fluctuating production, especially when dealing with wind and solar power sources. This introduces variations...
In recent years, renewable energy sources (RES) has increased all over the world, especially in Europe, and the changes brought by these sources have a significant impact on system performance and efficiency. Integrating RES to an electric power network offers many techno-economical benefits and in the same time necessitate advances in the operation, control and planning of electric networks. This...
This paper examines the potential to create an energy-independent smart network for an island community utilizing ocean and wind energy. The analysis involves the simulation of an extensive electrification of the heat and transport sectors on the island and the use of renewable energy to maximize the fuel and emission savings. This study involves a full renewable resource assessment for both wind...
Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) represent both a new challenge for and a huge potential resource to the smart-grid. The secret to effective integration of renewable energy generation into the smart-grid is integration of enough storage to deal with the intermittency of the generation. However, there are several barriers to integrating enough storage to effectively harness renewable energy in the...
The integration of renewable energy sources such as wind power into power systems is quite difficult due to their stochastic nature. As wind power penetration begins to reach significant levels these difficulties can mean great financial expenses and increased carbon emissions. In this paper we demonstrate that through smart utilization of multiple generation sources, a technique we call integrated...
The current energy infrastructure heavily depends on fossil energy, which will be mostly depleted beyond 21st century. Another built-in disadvantage of fossil energy is the pollutant and green house gas emission. It is time to reform the environment-degrading energy infrastructure into a sustainable and resilient energy infrastructure such that it is more environmental friendly. Compared with fossil...
Wind energy is one of the most popular sources for renewable energy. Worldwide, but especially in Germany, an extensive growth of installed wind energy plants can be traced. In Germany, the installed power of wind energy plants in 2007 was about 22 GW. The aim of the government is to raise this amount to 47 GW to the year 2020, what will be equal to 60 % of the total load of Germany. One problem is...
