Hourly Dispatching Wind-Solar Hybrid Power System With Battery-Supercapacitor Hybrid Energy Storage, Pranoy Kumar Singha Roy
Hourly Dispatching Wind-Solar Hybrid Power System With Battery-Supercapacitor Hybrid Energy Storage, Pranoy Kumar Singha Roy
Theses and Dissertations--Electrical and Computer Engineering
This dissertation demonstrates a dispatching scheme of wind-solar hybrid power system (WSHPS) for a specific dispatching horizon for an entire day utilizing a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) configured by batteries and supercapacitors. Here, wind speed and solar irradiance are predicted one hour ahead of time using a multilayer perceptron Artificial Neural Network (ANN), which exhibits satisfactory performance with good convergence mapping between input and target output data. Furthermore, multiple state of charge (SOC) controllers as a function of energy storage system (ESS) SOC are developed to accurately estimate the grid reference power (PGrid,ref) for each dispatching period. …
Smart Management Strategies Of Utility-Scale Energy Storage Systems In Power Networks, Choton Kanti Das
Smart Management Strategies Of Utility-Scale Energy Storage Systems In Power Networks, Choton Kanti Das
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
Power systems are presently experiencing a period of rapid change driven by various interrelated issues, e.g., integration of renewables, demand management, power congestion, power quality requirements, and frequency regulation. Although the deployment of Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) has been shown to provide effective solutions to many of these issues, misplacement or non-optimal sizing of these systems can adversely affect network performance. This present research has revealed some novel working strategies for optimal allocation and sizing of utility-scale ESSs to address some important issues of power networks at both distribution and transmission levels. The optimization strategies employed for ESS placement and …
High Order Contingency Selection Using Particle Swarm Optimization And Tabu Search, Ashwini Chegu
High Order Contingency Selection Using Particle Swarm Optimization And Tabu Search, Ashwini Chegu
Masters Theses
There is a growing interest in investigating the high order contingency events that may result in large blackouts, which have been a great concern for power grid secure operation. The actual number of high order contingency is too huge for operators and planner to apply a brute-force enumerative analysis. This thesis presents a heuristic searching method based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) and tabu search to select severe high order contingencies. The original PSO algorithm gives an intelligent strategy to search the feasible solution space, but tends to find the best solution only. The proposed method combines the original PSO …
