Distribution Network Operation With Solar Photovoltaic And Energy Storage Technology, Mohammad Ramin Feizi
Electrical Engineering Theses and Dissertations
Among distributed energy resources, solar photovoltaic (PV) generation has the largest penetration in the distribution networks. Serving electric vehicles (EV) with renewable resource generation would further reduce the carbon footprint of the energy supply chain for electric vehicles. However, the integration of solar PV and EVs in the unbalanced distribution network introduces several challenges including voltage fluctuations, voltage imbalances, reverse power flow, and protection devices’ malfunctions. The uncertainties associated with solar PV integration and electric vehicles operation require significant effort to develop accurate optimization methodologies in the unbalanced distribution systems operation. In this thesis, in order to cope with the …

Study Of Stochastic Market Clearing Problems In Power Systems With High Renewable Integration, Saumya Sakitha Sashrika Ariyarathne
Operations Research and Engineering Management Theses and Dissertations
Integrating large-scale renewable energy resources into the power grid poses several operational and economic problems due to their inherently stochastic nature. The lack of predictability of renewable outputs deteriorates the power grid’s reliability. The power system operators have recognized this need to account for uncertainty in making operational decisions and forming electricity pricing. In this regard, this dissertation studies three aspects that aid large-scale renewable integration into power systems. 1. We develop a nonparametric change point-based statistical model to generate scenarios that accurately capture the renewable generation stochastic processes; 2. We design new pricing mechanisms derived from alternative stochastic programming …

Electrical Engineering Theses and Dissertations
The modern power system has witnessed an increasing penetration of distributed energy resources and modern loads with variable frequency drives. The increasing complexity brings great challenges to modern power system operations. Significant efforts have been made to develop more accurate power system operation and optimization methods. The tradeoff between computation and the model structure makes the problem nontrivial to solve and analyze. Enabled by the wide deployment of PMUs and advanced machine learning algorithms, we improve the conventional power system operation and optimization techniques by improving the accuracy of power system measurements, implementing new power system modeling structures, and performing …
