An Elegant Emergence Of Optimal Siting And Sizing Of Multiple Distributed Generators Used For Transmission Congestion Relief, Rajamanickam Manickaraj Sasiraja, Velu Suresh Kumar, Sankaralingam Ponmani Jan 2015

An Elegant Emergence Of Optimal Siting And Sizing Of Multiple Distributed Generators Used For Transmission Congestion Relief, Rajamanickam Manickaraj Sasiraja, Velu Suresh Kumar, Sankaralingam Ponmani

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

After the implementation of deregulation in a power system, an appreciable volume of renewable energy sources is used to generate electric power. Even though they are intended to improve the reliability of the power system, the unpredictable outages of generators or transmission lines, an impulsive increase in demand, and failures of other equipment lead to congestion in one or more transmission lines. There are several ways to alleviate this transmission congestion, such as the installation of new generation facilities in the place where the demand is high, the addition of a new transmission facility, generation rescheduling, and curtailment of load …


Central Coordination Relay For Distribution Systems With Distributed Generation, Fati̇h Mehmet Nuroğlu, Ayşen Basa Arsoy Jan 2015

Central Coordination Relay For Distribution Systems With Distributed Generation, Fati̇h Mehmet Nuroğlu, Ayşen Basa Arsoy

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

As distributed generation resources penetrate into distribution systems, protection and service continuity are becoming major issues. A new approach for protection coordination and higher reliability of a distribution system with distributed generation is explored in this paper. The concept of central coordination relay (CCR) is developed for this purpose. After a brief introduction of the design and operating procedures of CCR, the utilization of the proposed relay on two feeders of a substation in the Kocaeli region of Turkey is simulated using DIgSILENT PowerFactory. The study results show that CCR can provide better protection coordination and improved reliability indices for …


An Intelligence-Based Islanding Detection Method Using Dwt And Ann, Mehrdad Heidari, Ghodratollah Seifossadat, Morteza Razaz Jan 2015

An Intelligence-Based Islanding Detection Method Using Dwt And Ann, Mehrdad Heidari, Ghodratollah Seifossadat, Morteza Razaz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a new method based on artificial neural network (ANN) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is proposed for electrical islanding detection. Transient signals produced during an event are used in the proposed method. ANN is trained to classify the transient events as islanding and nonislanding. The required features for classifying are extracted through DWT of voltage and current transient signals. The proposed method is then simulated on a medium voltage distribution system of CIGRE with 2 kinds of DGs. Results show that this method can detect electrical islands more rapidly and accurately.


Renewable Energy Integration In Smart Grids-Multicriteria Assessment Using The Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process, Aleksandar Janjic, Suzana Savic, Lazar Velimirovic, Vesna Nikolic Jan 2015

Renewable Energy Integration In Smart Grids-Multicriteria Assessment Using The Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process, Aleksandar Janjic, Suzana Savic, Lazar Velimirovic, Vesna Nikolic

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Unlike the traditional way of efficiency assessment of renewable energy sources integration, the smart grid concept is introducing new goals and objectives regarding increased use of renewable electricity sources, grid security, energy conservation, energy efficiency, and deregulated energy market. Possible benefits brought by renewable sources integration are evaluated by the degree of the approach to the ideal smart grid. In this paper, fuzzy analytical hierarchy process methodology for the integration efficiency has been proposed, taking into account the presence of multiple criteria of both qualitative and quantitative nature, different performance indicators, and the uncertain environment of the smart grid. The …
