EV battery demand is predicted to increase nearly 15-fold from 2020 to 2030 The EV market is skyrocketing. There’s a major EV production bottleneck, though - there aren’t enough batteries to meet current demand. The problem will likely be even more challenging in the future because BNEF predicts battery demand will rise 15-fold from 2020 to 2030 in the Economic Transition Scenario. ...
In the previous two posts in this series, we’ve looked at the hidden risks that make managing critical power facilities so challenging. We’ve also seen how digitalizing electrical power distribution networks trends mean you no longer have to ‘work ...
Semiconductor fabs use up to 100 megawatt-hours of power each and every hour Semiconductor manufacturing facilities require a massive amount of energy to support their facilities and manufacturing processes. Large fabs can use as much as 100 megawatt-hours of power each hour – more than many oil refineries and automotive plants. Energy use will continue to increase with higher production ...
Power distribution networks across Africa are notoriously unreliable. ...
The vision behind the smart grid promises, among other things, to bring more attention to the lower layers of the distribution network where users are gradually transforming into prosumers. ...
In the last few years, a number of factors have led to an increased interest in distributed generation (DG) scheme because placement of DG is the most effective method in reducing the power loss of the distribution networks to serve remote loads. Placement of shunt capacitors improves voltage profile but unable to serve remote ...
As a result of deregulation, increased use of dispersed generation requires revisiting in management and operation of distribution network. Selection of optimal network topology incorporated with the optimal use of dispersed generation and retail market including real and reactive power. ...
However, the integration of dispersed renewable tidal energy will pose a greater challenge to the power quality of distribution networks in remote areas due to fluctuation of the tidal stream velocity. ...
A new mathematical index is investigated in this paper which improves the power quality of a system through providing a tool for online voltage sag mitigation. The index is developed mathematically and applied on transmission and distribution networks. Furthermore, it is verified for its compatibility through the use of a tap changing transformer ...
On the 14 August 2003, a complex combination of immediate events and longer term vulnerabilities led to a domino effect in which 50 million people had their power supplies interrupted. Consequent losses were between $5–$10 billion. It is, therefore, one of the most serious disruptions to a national power distribution ...
Harmonics in the distribution network have become an area of keen interest for utilities, power consumers and academic researchers due to its potentially disruptive impact on economy. ...
Active power supply is mainly dependent on the potential of wind power produced and the turbine design. ...
Voltage control and reactive power compensation in a distribution network with embedded Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) represents the main concern of this paper. ...
