Economics of large-scale intermittent RES-E integration into the European grids: analyses based on the simulation software GreenNet
Market integration of Renewable Energy Technologies for Electricity (RES-E) generation is one of the core topics in the energy policy agenda of the European Commission (EC). However, legislation in this context still faces a variety of lacks (e.g. ignoring unbundling principles) in almost all countries of the European Union (EU). The recently finished EC-Project GreenNet addresses these existing ...

Structure-preserving dynamical model and distributed stabilisation of electricity infrastructures with renewable energy resources
This paper introduces a module-based approach to modelling and controlling electricity infrastructure with a high penetration of distributed renewable energy resources. Each energy-converting component is defined as a module and is represented in terms of its local variables and the interaction variables between the module and the transmission network. The structure of the electricity ...

Powering Renewable Programs: The Utility Perspective
When considering how to build out a renewable energy portfolio, there are a lot of factors and many points of view to consider. For purposes of this narrative, we will take the point of view of the electric utility itself. Your electricity providers are quite familiar with the concept of a “smart grid.” According to the Department of Energy (DOE), a smart grid “generally refers ...

Building integration of 30 kWp photovoltaic system at University Politehnica of Bucharest, Romania
A Building Integrated Photovoltaic Power System of 30 kWp was recently installed at University Politehnica of Bucharest, Romania. It is the first grid-connected and largest PV system of the country. With this opportunity, an innovative non-penetrating system that uses the modules and mounting hardware as ballast was designed and implemented. Personnel with no previous experience with the roof PV ...

The Future Promise of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) Integration: A Sociotechnical Review and Research Agenda
Abstract Vehicle-grid integration (VGI) describes various approaches to link the electric power system and the transportation system in ways that may benefit both. VGI includes systems that treat plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) as controllable load with a unidirectional flow of electricity, such as “smart” or “controlled” charging or time-of-use (TOU) pricing. VGI ...

Integration of solar photovoltaic (PV) to LV distribution network: a case study
The development of renewable energy sources will increase the amount of generation connected to distribution networks. The main advantages are that optimally located distributed generation resources can reduce or postpone the need for investment in the transmission and distribution infrastructure; transmission and distribution losses are reduced as well as improvement in power quality and system ...

Integration of wind-generating units into the Corsican electrical grid: determination of the maximal integration rate from a reliability analysis based on a stochastic process
This paper investigates the potentiality of Wind Electric Conversion Systems (WECS) integrated into the islander electrical grid of Corsica. Probabilistic models for WECS and their use in the reliability studies of combined wind electric and conventional generation systems are discussed. The method, based on the evaluation of the Loss of Load Probability (LOLP), uses a Markov model applied to the ...

Why do Renewable Energy Meters appear?
What is renewable energy? What is the defining of Renewable Energy Meter? Renewable energy is natually avilable and can be recycle without human intervention, which is an inexhaustible source of energy. Wind energy, water energy, solar energy, tidal energy, geothermal energy are compliance with renewable energy standards. With the trend of warmed the Earth, most of countries have agreed that will ...

Optimum use of renewable energy resources to generate electricity via hybrid system
The necessity of hybrid energy system is gaining more importance day by day as it incorporates two or more than two renewable energy resources that when integrated overcome limitations inherent in either. Hybrid energy system has been seen as an excellent solution for electrification of rural place where the grid extension is difficult and economically not feasible. Such system may consist of ...

Looking forward to the day smart grid dies
The title of this blog might strike you as kind of weird, especially this week. After all, the Electric Power Research Institute made the news with a study showing that smart grid is going to be far bigger than we first thought. Smart grid in simplest terms brings to the electrical grid the digital intelligence of computers and the Internet. Just seven years ago EPRI expected smartening the grid ...

Smart grid: How big is big?
A Cisco executive attracted some eye rolling after commenting that smart grid could be “even bigger than the Internet.” But the statement isn’t farfetched when you think about what smart grid encompasses: a convergence of three industry giants: information technology, telecommunications and the electric grid, the world’s biggest machine. A report this week by Greentech Media made clear just how ...

What rural Alaska can teach the world about renewable energy
I flew into Unalakleet, Alaska, on a late fall day. With about 700 people, Unalakleet is large by rural Alaska standards and serves as a regional hub. The village is located on a sandy spit of land where a clear river meets the turbid water of the Bering Sea. Out the plane window the sun shone bright, glittering off the wind-tossed whitecaps of the sea. To the east, the rolling Nulato Hills, clad ...
