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 ...
An Assessment of Optimal Allocation of FACTS Devices in Power Systems Using Metaheuristics
(2021-11)
The increasing power demand, the optimal use of grids, the need for economic efficiency, and the high costs associated with building new grids have created unavoidable challenges such as power line overload and excessive ...
Enhanced Speed Control of Separately Excited DC Motor Using Fuzzy-Neural Networks Controller
(IEEE, 2022-02)
The dynamic behavior of a PID-type fuzzy logic control depends on the appropriate choice of its scaling factors. Fixed scaling factors cannot provide adequate control performance under a wide range of operating conditions. ...
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. ...
Voltage Stability Enhancement of the Uganda Power System Network
(IEEE, 2021-08)
The unprecedented growth in demand and drive towards deregulation has brought about a complex and constantly changing grid. More so, with the current environmental and economic pressures, there's a reported growing number ...
Voltage Stability Analysis and Improvement of Power System With Increased SCIG-based Wind System Integration
(2020)
This paper presents voltage stability analysis and improvement of power system when there is increase in wind power penetration. Loading parameter-Voltage curve was used
to calculate the loadability and the megawatt margin ...
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. ...
Analysis of a fuzzy logic power system stabilizer for stability enhancement
(2010)
Modern power systems consist of several generators working synchronously to meet the
Power demand. For reliability of these systems, stability must be ensured in case of faults within the system. Faults within a system ...
Profit based unit commitment in deregulated electricity markets using a hybrid lagrangian Relaxation - particle swarm optimization approach
(2017)
Abstract—In deregulated electricity markets, individual generation companies (GENCOs) carry out independent unit commitment based on predicted energy and revenue prices. The GENCOs unit com-moment strategies are developed ...
Motor Speed Control Kits Using a Microcontroller.
(2021-11)
The aim of this project is to make a motor laboratory kits for AC motors. It aims on making affordable kits which are made from locally available materials and applying the obtained knowledge from the four-year curriculum ...
