This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past two decades, the power systems witnessed vital changes in terms of centralized paradigm versus more decentralized and market driven approaches; technical advances on communications and computation; and generation technologies which collectively lead to the advancement of microgrids (MGs). In this thesis, a novel dynamic adaptive simulations (DAS) approach is introduced for addressing major challenges in the operation and control of MGs, such as solving the economic and environmental load dispatch problem, achieving a sophisticated autonomous control of microgrids, and promoting the cooperation between individual microgrids to increase the power network reliability and energy surety. Initially, a first version of dynamic adaptive simulation was designed, namely DAS-EELD, for the efficient real-time economic and environmental load dispatching . The DAS-EELD framework was illustrated and validated via a modified IEEE-30 bus test system and as the experiments revealed, it is capable of reducing the computational resource usage for the reliable power dispatch without compromising the quality of the solution. Moreover, for the operation and control of MGs a second version of DAS was developed, namely DAS-CONTROL, in order to speed up significantly the real-time computation of the resource allocation and control decisions to optimize the operational cost, energy surety, and emissions. For validating the DAS-CONTROL framework a realistic MG was utilized to prove that DAS-CONTROL significantly reduces the computational burden of a considerably complex multi-objective problem. Finally, a third version of DAS was developed, namely DAS-SH, to provide distributed microgrids with a protocol of self-healing, both when they are operating collaboratively and competitively (in an isolated mode) while increasing the reliability of the network by pledging energy surety. DASSH framework was applied to a realistic case study that includes three microgrids and has been tested under four different emergency incidents. The results reveal that the cooperative collection of distributed microgrids were able to meet the critical and priority loads to a higher extent at all times while sacrificing from the less important non-critical loads. With the combination of the results from the different dynamic adaptive simulation versions that were created, this thesis reveals that DAS is a promising method to model microgrid systems as it provides means to find the most efficient method to optimize and enhance the microgrids' operation and control and attain several benefits.

This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stability of power systems and microgrids is compromised by the increasing penetration with power electronic devices, such as wind turbines, photovoltaics and batteries. A simulation and optimization environment for such low-inertia systems is created. It is investigated how accurate the models need to be to capture the prevailing modes. An evolutionary algorithm tailored to optimization problems with computationally intensive fitness evaluation is proposed in order to optimized the controller parameters of grid-forming and grid-supporting distributed generators. It becomes apparent that microgrids dominated by grid-forming inverters are very stable systems when well-designed and optimized controllers are used. Model simplifications, such as the neglect of inner control loops of inverters, must be examined carefully, as they can lead to an inaccurate stability assessment.

Download or read book Adaptive Load Frequency Control in Power Systems Using Optimization Techniques written by Tarek Hassan Mohamed and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At present, simple and classical tuned controllers are widely used in the power system load frequency control (LFC) application. Existing LFC system parameters are usually tuned based on experiences, classical methods, and trial and error approaches, and they are incapable of providing good dynamic performance over a wide range of operating conditions and various load scenarios. Therefore, the novel modeling and control approaches are strongly required, to obtain a new trade-off between efficiency and robustness. Thus, the proposed techniques in this chapter are referred to be an adaptive control technique based on new optimization methods such as Jaya, Practical Swarm Optimization Algorithm, etc., which are used to make an on-line tuning of the LFC parameters in order to face the previous challenges in LFC. The system under study is a small microgrid with a renewable energy source and variable demand load. Digital simulation results are discussed.
