A model for the electrical double layer at solid-state electrochemical interfaces is reported, shedding some light on the design and optimization of future all-solid-state Li-ion batteries. ...
Dealing with lightning performance computation, researchers usually consider only negative downward first return strokes and the relevant channel-base peak current distribution. The aim of this article is to account for the lightning flash mechanism, which ...
This paper presents a method to determine the optimal location, energy capacity, and power rating of distributed battery energy storage systems at multiple voltage levels to accomplish grid control and reserve provision. We model operational scenarios at a ...
Upward lightning occurs generally from tall structures. The mechanism of the initiation of upward lightning is not yet fully understood. Upward lightning can be classified into two categories based on either the absence or the presence of other lightning a ...
The increasing penetration of renewable energy sources, energy storage systems (ESSs), and DC loads has opened the door to DC technology to pave its way into future grids. The shift has been more obvious in the marine domain supported by track records of i ...
A major concern associated to the massive connection of distributed energy resources is the increasing share of power electronic interfaces resulting in the global inertia reduction of power systems. The recent literature advocated the use of voltage sourc ...
There is a need by distribution system operators and power suppliers to propose ancillary services to enhanced grid operation allowing the optimal deployment of photovoltaic panels, cogeneration technologies and distributed storage. This deliverable theref ...
To limit global warming, the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables is one of the main challenges of this century. This transition will help decrease our CO2 emissions, create jobs, contribute to a broader revenues distribution, improve energy s ...
In this paper, reactive power sharing for Photovoltaic (PV) units in islanded microgrids has been formulated as a robust control design problem and is solved using convex optimization method. In addition to reactive power sharing, the disturbance rejection ...
In recent years, DC grids have gained momentum due to the advantages they display over their AC counterparts. For instance, high voltage DC grids have been established as the most prominent solution in the underwater power transmission or interconnection o ...
