Distribution feeders with high penetration of renewable power generation can be converted into microgrids for providing more quality power with increased reliability. Virtual synchronous inertia is used to increase the ...

Conventional distribution system is generally passive having a unidirectional power flow from its grid substation to the loads. With the addition of Distributed Generation (DG) in to the system, power flow becomes bidirectional ...

This paper addresses the influence of integrating a large-scale wind farm on static voltage stability of a power system based on the factors such as, wind speed, wind farm interconnection bus, interconnection cable length ...

Emergency load shedding (LS) for preventing frequency degradation is an established practice all over the world. The objective of LS is to balance load and generation. This paper presents a technique to develop a reliable ...

A prototype islanding detection relay, which uses decision tree classifier to categorize the transient generating events as ‘islanding’ or ‘non-islanding’ was implemented and tested. It consisted of two basic stages of ...

Renewable based DC microgrids are being widely deployed due to its increased efficiency compared to AC networks. An energy storage system helps to cater power flow imbalances due to the intermittent nature of renewable ...

Congestion occurs on the nation’s electric transmission grids with the addition of new generation to meet the increasing electricity demand. Therefore, reliable, efficient and better quality of supply urge introduction of ...

Microgrids can operate in parallel with the grid or as a power-island. They are thus, expected to perform seamless transition from islanded to parallel operation and vice versa. This paper reviews the existing DG interconnection ...

In deploying a large scale wind power plant, there are several aspects that have to be assessed. Among them the initial site screening for wind power plants, wind data assessment and proper selection of wind turbines are ...
