This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption of Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) as a substitute to gasoline-based internal combustion engine vehicles represent a major change in the transportation sector. Typically, PEVs uses electricity to charge the on-board batteries instead of gasoline which is used in internal combustion engines. The main advantage of electrifying the transportation sector is to help lower fuel costs and reduce GreenHouse Gases (GHGs). Despite being an environmentally friendly means of transportation, the increased penetration of these electric vehicles may have negative impacts on the electrical power distribution system components (e.g. distribution primary feeders, transformers and secondary distribution lines), and as a result of these impacts, modification and upgrading of the distribution system components may be required. This can be achieved by increasing the distribution transformer sizes and adding new lines to the existing system, which may be considered an expensive solution. Several studies have been conducted to reduce the distribution system modification and upgrading costs, by coordinating the charging behavior of these vehicles either using centralized or decentralized control schemes. However, these methods limit the authority of vehicles' owners regarding when to charge their vehicles which might be inconvenient for some. On the other hand, electric utilities offer different incentive programs for their customers to control their energy usage in order to reduce the probability of system failures and to increase the system reliability while decreasing the costs of infrastructure upgrade. However, most of these programs have not met the expected response from customers. In this dissertation, a new strategy is proposed to accomplish self-healing for the electric grid in order to reduce the negative impacts of PEVs charging demand. This novel technique is based on applying the Transactive Energy (TE) control concept. The proposed implementation of the TE concept in this work is based on the adoption of a multi-agent system at different levels of the electric power distribution system (e.g., residential homes, neighborhood areas, and the Distribution System Operator (DSO)). These agents work in a cooperative manner in order to reach a state of consensus between the electric power distribution system resources owned by the electric utility (e.g., distributed generation, community energy storage) and the resources owned by the homeowners (e.g., rooftop solar photovoltaic, home battery energy storage). Moreover, the multi-agent system will allow the customers to use their own resources in an optimal way that can gain the maximum benefits offered through different incentive programs. The results have shown that the negative impacts on the electric power distribution system due to the plug-in electric vehicles charging demand can be mitigated by applying the proposed TE control which requires at least 30% of customers to own controllable battery energy storage unit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading countries around the globe, including Australia, have taken serious steps to decarbonize their energy and transportation sectors as part of their obligations for a suitable future with fewer emissions and a better environment. The decarbonization plans in different countries have resulted in changes such as increases in the penetration level of renewable energy sources and the introduction of electric vehicles as a target for future transportation systems. This is the point where mobility meets electricity and brings new challenges and opportunities, especially in the integration with modern power systems. The main impact would be on the demand-side and the distribution network. These impacts would be also reflected in the operation, control, security, and stability of transmission systems. This creates a new grid architecture characterized by a growing variability and uncertainties. Moreover, the growth in the share of renewable energy in the total energy market is one of the major causes of the increasing fluctuations in the balance between generation and consumption in the whole system. Therefore, the key challenge lies in developing new concepts to ensure the effective integration of distributed energy resources and electric transportation systems, including EVs, into existing and future market structures. Electric Transportation Systems in Smart Power Grids address how these issues—EVs, E-buses, and other smart appliances on the demand side—can be aggregated to form virtual power plants, which are considered an efficient solution to provide operational flexibility to the grid. The book also discusses how EV-based virtual power plants can also provide myriad services for distribution system operators, transmission system operators, and even local prosumers within the energy community. Features: Describes the services required to power systems from EVs and electric transportation sector Covers frequency control in modern power systems using aggregated EVs Discusses the integration and interaction between EVs and Smart grids Introduces electric vehicle aggregation methods for supporting power systems Highlights flexibility provided from electric transportation system to smart energy sector Discusses the high penetration level of renewable energy sources and EVs

Download or read book Analysis and Evaluation of Transactive Energy Control in Active Distribution Systems written by Matt Gray and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electric power distribution system is experiencing significant operational changes due to the integration of plug-in electric vehicles and intermittent distributed energy resources such as rooftop solar photovoltaics. As plug-in electric vehicle charging represents a significant increase in system loading, both distribution transformers and substation transformers are subject to overload conditions which rapidly degrade transformers lifetime. Furthermore, the increased penetration of rooftop solar photovoltaic in the residential sector may lead to bi-directional power flow and may additionally cause overload to the distribution transformers. In order to accommodate the growing market penetration of plug-in electric vehicles and rooftop solar photovoltaics, the electric utility must employ energy management to prolong the transformers lifetime. Given that transformers represent one of the most expensive assets in the distribution system, failure to resolve transformer lifetime degradation issues require the electric utility to incur the costs of transformer replacement or upgrading. The work in this dissertation proposes a transactive energy control methodology to perform residential energy storage system control as a means of reducing transformer lifetime degradation. The results have shown that the proposed framework may extend median annual distribution transformer lifetime by nearly double the expected lifetime of distribution transformers without transactive energy control. Finally, the proposed transactive control scheme has also been found to reduce active power losses within the system.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A legacy electric power distribution system is characterized by a unidirectional power flow from centralized power plants to customers. The role of these customers has been known for many years as power consumers and not power producers. In smart distribution systems, because of the widespread use of distributed energy resources such as roof-top solar photovoltaics and home battery energy storage in residential subdivisions, the role of many of the residential customers has changed to be power producers and consumers; therefore, they are combined in the term prosumers. Moreover, the integration of prosumers owning plug-in electric vehicles into the residential sector may bring several operational challenges to the electric power distribution systems such as distribution transformer overload, which may accelerate the distribution transformer's aging leading to premature replacement, in addition to an increase in the energy loss and service voltage deviations, leading to additional costs to the utility. Furthermore, these challenges threaten the continuity of the power supply to residential customers. Many studied have introduced several strategies to mitigate these negative impacts. Therefore, this thesis presents novel strategies to mitigate the impact of integrating these distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicles. Previous work has identified the secondary distribution system, which is the part of the distribution system starting from the distribution transformers and ending at the customers' smart meters, as the weakest part of the overall distribution system that would be significantly affected by the change of the residential customer's role in modern grids. The work presented in this thesis addresses this problem by considering the secondary distribution systems at two different stages. In the first stage, namely the design stage, the focus is on the design of the secondary distribution systems when considering a new residential subdivision. The proposed strategy in this work aims to consider the distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicle charging demand, installed at the prosumers' premises, at the design stage by identifying the sizing of the secondary distribution system components (e.g., distribution transformer, and secondary line conductors). In the second stage, namely the operational stage, the focus is on the secondary distribution systems that are already in service and which have been designed without taking into consideration the presence of the distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicle charging demand. Two strategies for this operational stage are proposed in this work. The first strategy (i.e., an operational stage without distributed energy resources) aims to mitigate the impact of these distributed energy resources by finding the optimal size, location and number of roof-top solar photovoltaics to be connected to improve the system performance and facilitates the integration of the and plug-in electric vehicle. The second strategy (i.e., an operational stage with distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicles) is based on the following two approaches. The first approach intends to intelligently design a community battery energy storage system (distributed battery energy storage system) to mitigate the impact of these distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicle charging demand while the second approach uses a novel concept of transactive energy market that aims to achieve both the customers' and electric utilities' objectives. The results presented in this thesis show the applicability of the proposed strategies to integrate the distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicle charging demand in secondary distribution systems at the two different stages (design and operational stages). In the design stage, the results reveal that the proposed optimal design approach is able to integrate the distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicle charging demand without any violations of voltage or a distribution transformer's aging constraints. In the operational stage, applying the first strategy (optimal size, location and number of prosumers) leads to an improvement in the service voltage at the customers by 4% and a reduction in the secondary distribution system's annual energy loss by 50%. In addition, applying the second strategy with the first approach (optimal design of the community battery energy storage system) results in improving the service voltage at the customers by 4.5% and reducing the energy loss by 50%. Moreover, applying the second strategy with the second approach (transactive energy market), which is implemented on the overall distribution systems, improves the service voltage by 2.9%, and mitigates the voltage unbalance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy storage systems have been recognized as viable solutions for implementing the smart grid paradigm, but have created challenges in terms of load levelling, integrating renewable and intermittent sources, voltage and frequency regulation, grid resiliency, improving power quality and reliability, reducing energy import during peak demand periods, and so on. In particular, distributed energy storage addresses a wide range of the above potential issues, and it is gaining attention from customers, utilities, and regulators. Distributed energy storage has considerable potential for reducing costs and improving the quality of electric services. However, installation costs and lifespan are the main drawbacks to the wide diffusion of this technology. In this context, a serious challenge is the adoption of new techniques and strategies for the optimal planning, control, and management of grids that include distributed energy storage devices. Regulatory guidance and proactive policies are urgently needed to ensure a smooth rollout of this technology. This book collects recent contributions of methodologies applied to the integration of distributed energy storage devices in smart power systems. Several areas of research (optimal siting and sizing of energy storage systems, adaption of energy storage systems to load leveling and harmonic compensation, integration for electric vehicles, and optimal control systems) are investigated in the contributions collected in this book.
