Intelligent Data-Driven Energy Flow Controllers For Renewable Energy And Electrified Transportation Systems, Juan Rafael Nunez Forestieri
Intelligent Data-Driven Energy Flow Controllers For Renewable Energy And Electrified Transportation Systems, Juan Rafael Nunez Forestieri
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
In recent years, large scale deployments of electrical energy generation using renewable sources (RES) such as wind, solar and ocean wave power, along with more sustainable means of transformation have emerged in response to different initiatives oriented toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Strategies facilitating the integration of renewable generation into the grid and electric propulsion in transportation systems are proposed in this work.
Chapter 2 investigates the grid-connected operation of a wave energy converter (WEC) along with a hybrid supercapacitor/undersea energy storage system (HESS). A combined sizing and energy management strategy (EMS) based on reinforcement learning (RL) is proposed. Comparisons …

Optimal And Efficient Decision-Making For Power System Expansion Planning, Mahdi Mehrtash
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
A typical power system consists of three major sectors: generation, transmission, and distribution. Due to ever increasing electricity consumption and aging of the existing components, generation, transmission, and distribution systems and equipment must be analyzed frequently and if needed be replaced and/or expanded timely. By definition, the process of power system expansion planning aims to decide on new as well as upgrading existing system components in order to adequately satisfy the load for a foreseen future.
In this dissertation, multiple economically optimal and computationally efficient methods are proposed for expanding power generation, transmission, and distribution systems. First, a computationally efficient …
