Latitude and Topographical Dependence of Lightning Return Stroke Peak Current in Natural and Tower-Initiated Negative Ground Flashes

Marcos Rubinstein

Experimental data show that the peak currents of first and subsequent lightning return strokes in negative ground flashes increase with decreasing latitude. In this paper, the reason for this dependence of peak return stroke current on latitude is explaine ...

Nonlinear Pricing of Shareable Products

Thomas Alois Weber

We consider a durable-goods monopolist who is able to control the collaborative consumption of its goods on an aftermarket by a sharing tariff. Consumers are heterogeneous with respect to their respective need propensities in each period. We show that the ...

Impact of advanced electricity tariff structures on the optimal design, operation and profitability of a grid-connected PV system with energy storage

Christophe Ballif, Lionel Benjamin Bloch, Jordan Holweger

The increasing penetration of residential photovoltaics (PV) comes with numerous challenges for distribution system operators. Technical difficulties arise when an excess of PV energy is injected into the grid, causing voltage rise or overloading of the li ...

Advanced tariffs for grid friendly distributed PV and storage: A case study in Rolle

Christophe Ballif, Lionel Benjamin Bloch, Jordan Holweger

The integration of a large amount of Photovoltaic could be an issue due to the excess of power generation and the ability of the low-voltage grids to extract the energy to the upper level. Appropriate tariff structures could prevent the need for grid reinf ...
