With the increase in penetration of power electronic converters in the power systems, a demand for overcurrent/ overloading capability has risen for the fault clearance duration. This article gives an overview of the limiting factors and the recent technol ...
Nowadays, direct current (DC) technology is increasing its presence in alternating current (AC) power systems. This trend is enabled by the progress in energy conversion through semiconductor devices and power electronics. Therefore, it is possible to imag ...
In recent years, power systems have evolved in physical and cyber-physical layers. In the physical layer, the changes are motivated by environmental concerns resulting in the integration of new types of generation/demand/storage into the grid. These integr ...
The transition of the global energy sector from fossil-based towards a zero-carbon system is a necessity to mitigate the impacts of climate change. The ratification of both, the Paris agreement in 2015 and the European Green Deal in 2019, illustrates the p ...
Gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) are some of the most reliable and most expensive equipment that are nowadays used in power systems. Condition monitoring of the power system equipment can help operators detect defects like partial discharges (PDs) early, pre ...
Energy balance in a power system must be maintained at all times, regardless of the variations in generation and consumption. Large Pumped Hydro Storage Plants (PHSPs) are introduced to the power system to accumulate the excess of energy during the low dem ...
This paper introduces a new method for solving the distributed AC power flow (PF) problem by further exploiting the problem formulation. We propose a new variant of the ALADIN algorithm devised specifically for this type of problem. This new variant is cha ...
Sodium-nickel-chloride batteries have a proven track record for backup power applications, but also show great potential for large-scale stationary electricity storage currently dominated by lithium-ion batteries. While lithium-ion cells rely on critical c ...
With the increasing need of real-time regulation in power systems, grid-aware-control-frameworks are relying more often on sensitivity coefficients (SCs) to formulate and efficiently solve optimal control problems. As known, SCs are the derivatives of cont ...
The transmission overload after a disturbance poses significant security risk to the power system. Once it happens, an efficient remedial action must be taken to relieve the line overloads as quickly as possible. The line overload mitigation problem become ...
