The distribution networks are experiencing important changes driven by the massive integration of renewable energy conversion systems. However, the lack of direct controllability of the Distributed Generations (DGs) supplying Active Distribution Networks ( ...
The German energy transition, with its massive subsidization of variable renewable electricity generation (wind, solar, etc.) leading to its dramatic expansion, has spurred controversy proportional to its ambitions. This chapter focuses on just one critiqu ...
The experimental integration and control of an utility-scale 720kVA/500kWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in the medium voltage network of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL) to achieve dispatched-by-design operation of a h ...
In 2011, the Swiss Federal council and Parliament decided on the phase out of Switzerland’s five nuclear energy plants (BFE n.d.) and launched the “Energy Strategy 2050” which envisages a significant expansion of electricity production from renewable sourc ...
This paper deals with a compensation technique for non-linear behaviour of single phase modular multi-level power converter, feeding electric vehicle fast charging station with split integrated energy storage system. The proposed method calculates the volt ...
The increased penetration of renewable energy sources in existing power systems has led to necessary developments in electricity market mechanisms. Most importantly, renewable energy generation is increasingly made accountable for deviations between schedu ...
Electricity market liberalization is altering pricing mechanisms in wholesale electricity markets, which will affect the effectiveness of climate and energy policies. Models used to simulate such policies must be responsive to pricing rules. We show how th ...
We provide an introduction to ETEM-SG, a robust linear programming approach specifically designed for regional energy systems analysis. This model can be used to provide prospective analyses of the long-term (30 years and more) evolution of multi-energy re ...
This paper proposes and experimentally validates a control algorithm for a grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) to level the consumption of a group of prosumers and dispatch their aggregated operation. The control strategy is layered in a tw ...
As part of the transition to a future power grid, distribution systems are undergoing profound changes evolving into Active Distribution Networks (ADNs). The presence of dispersed generation, local storage systems and responsive loads in these systems incu ...
