Continuation load flow with a neuro fuzzy model of an induction motor for voltage stability analysis
(2010)
This paper uses the concept of the continuation power flow analysis used in voltage stability
Analysis for control the power in large systems. It uses the PV curves to find the knee point of a certain bus. A neuro fuzzy ...
Protection of Terminal Distribution Transformers: A Case Study of Kenya Power
(IEEE, 2018)
The paper presents and analyses the main causes of high failure rate of Terminal Distribution Transformers (TDTs) in Kenya. These transformers are the most susceptible to faults emanating from lightning strikes and associated ...

(2014)
This paper details the design and implementation of a Fuzzy Logic based controller for Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) of a case study standalone wind energy
conversion system(WECS). A magnetostrictive amorphous wire ...
Profit based unit commitment in deregulated electricity markets using a hybrid lagrangian relaxation - particle swarm optimization approach
(2017)
In deregulated electricity markets, individual generation companies (GENCOs) carry out independent unit commitment based on predicted energy and revenue prices. The GENCOs unit commitment strategies are developed with the ...
Design optimization of a renewable hybrid energy system
(2013)
This paper proposes the optimal design of a renewable hybrid energy system consisting of solar, wind energy with battery storage suitable for application in remote areas. The study investigates the possibility of reducing ...
Comparison of aggregation methods of induction motor models for transient stability load modeling
(2010)
This paper focusses on the comparison of the aggregation methods of multiple induction motors (IM) connected in parallel on the same bus into a single equivalent model using the no-load and locked-rotor and transformer ...
Performance review of the VSC-HVDC based controllers
(2016)
The Voltage Source Converters, High Voltage Direct Current (VSC-HVDC) system is the most preferred alternative technology for transmission and distribution of electrical power due to its intrinsic distinctiveness in ...
Opportunities and challenges for smart grid communications
(2010)
The current power grid is in the verge of being improved. Recent technological advances have made possible the creation of a new and improved grid known as the smart grid. Smart grid allows for better interaction between ...
Optimal Sizing and Placement of Solar Photovoltaic based DGs in the IEEE 9 bus system using Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm
(2018)
Solar energy is one of the most commonly exploited renewable resource globally. Integration of power from solar to the main grid can either bring positive or negative impact which normally depends on their size and location. ...
The use of RC4 Encryption for Smart Meters
(2014)
The electrical power grid is undergoing improvements and is being transformed to the Smart Grid. Smart Grid makes use of two way flow of power and information to better monitor, plan and control the electrical power grid. ...
