The concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2 ), the main catalyst for global warming, reached an average of 414.7 parts per million in 2021 and 2.3 ppm more than in 2020. This theme is significant and has gained space in global discussions. This research aimed to deal with and analyze essential points in this discussion. With the study, it was possible to point out evidence that Brazil is a country that has been significantly reducing its CO2 emissions, being in the cluster along with IEA member countries that least issue CO2 . With this article, it was possible to point out similar characteristics between the CO2 emissions of the countries, making it possible to highlight three latent variables: countries that have a constant tall or low trend in CO2 emissions, Grouping of countries that showed an upward trend at the beginning of the analyzed period, but with a significant reduction CO2 over time, and countries that have had more discrepant behavior from the others, these being the countries that have a structural breakdown in their time series of CO2 emissions by power generation.

The presented research is dedicated to estimation of the correlation between the level of renewable energy sources and the costs of congestion management in electric networks in selected European countries. Data of six countries in North-West European area (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Poland and Austria) were investigated. Factors considered included grid congestion costs including re-dispatching costs as well as countertrading costs, gross electricity generation, installed capacity of electric generating facilities, installed capacity of electric non-dispatchable renewable energy sources and total electricity consumption. Special attention is paid to the share of renewable energy sources. It is found that the grid congestion costs are not clearly affected by penetration of non-dispatchable renewables in all the analysed countries and therefore a clear mathematical correlation cannot no be extrapolated with the available data. The results of this research show in general a loose dependency of the grid congestion costs on the penetration of renewables and a strong dependency on the total electrical consumption of the country.

The work deals with the design of the hydraulically operated solar tracker used for a photovoltaic (PV) platform. The tracking mechanism is a dual-axis, azimuthal type, the primary axis, that of the daily/diurnal movement, being positioned vertically, which provides a high stability of the entire structure. The actuation in both movement subsystems (daily and elevation) is achieved by using linear actuators, in the subsystem for the daily movement a stroke amplification mechanism being interspersed between the actuator and the rotating part of the support pillar, which constitutes an element of novelty/originality regarding the mechanical device of the solar tracker. The sun tracking is conducted by an open-loop control strategy, based on a predefined step-by-step algorithm, which was designed so that to capture as much as possible incident solar radiation with a minimum energy consumption for achieving the orientation. The modeling and simulation of the solar tracker is carried out in mechatronic concept, by using the virtual prototyping solutions ADAMS (for the mechanical device model) and EASY5 (for the control system model) of MSC Software.

Nowadays, multiphase machine drives are considered in many applications, especially for medium and highpower applications. This paper focuses on the topology of the six to three phase (hexaphase) indirect matrix converter (IMC). The matrix converter (MC) is designed based on twelve bidirectional switches for the rectifier stage and six single switches for the inverter stage. It is interfaced to a high-performance, fault-tolerant multiphase permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) on one side and to the grid on the other side. In the literature, the most common MCs are of the three-phase type and papers on multiple input converters (N>3) are not common. This paper deals with all possible configurations of SVM that can be deduced in a hexaphase MC to determine the modulation indexes and then to assess the VTR (Voltage Transfer Ratio). Simulations are performed on a pure inductive load and THD analysis are performed on the input currents of the MC to show the impact of the studied configurations on the system.

Due to the proliferation of renewable energy systems, the study of voltage and frequency stability is a crucial aspect. Recently, this problem has been approached from a purely geometrical point of view with interesting results. The present work investigates the properties of the so-called electrical curves described by arbitrary voltage or current vectors in Euclidean spaces. Through the invariants of these curves, certain indices can be constructed to detect abnormal operation or irregular characteristics in electrical power systems. Different scenarios and examples have been solved in this work to support the proposed theory.

Wind power is considered one of the main sources of renewable energy in the market today. In this study, different sizes and directions of channels were created inside the NACA 0012 aerofoil, and the effect of these channels were investigated on aerodynamic noise and aerodynamic performance, experimentally and numerically. The results have shown several factors that could affect the aerodynamic noise such as flow velocity, angle of attack, and trailing edge blowing injection. The study also concluded an increase in drag coefficients and a decrease in lift coefficients for all channeled samples compared to the regular aerofoil. In contrast to the studies that showed improvements in the aerodynamic performance of supersonic channeled aerofoils, this study done under subsonic flow showed an increase in drag and decrease in lift.

Over the past few years, fuzzy logic systems have gained popularity due to their superiority over classical controllers when it comes to enhancing the transient stability of power systems. In this paper, a Fuzzy Logic Power System Stabilizer (FLPSS) is designed to damp local and inter-area oscillations following disturbances through the use of an Artificial Bee Colony Optimization Algorithm (ABC). The designed FLPSS is expected to significantly increase the robustness of power systems and ultimately improve the quality of power supply to end-users. This test system consists of two areas with four machines and eleven buses, with the purpose of evaluating the performance of the ABC-FLPSS under a variety of disturbances and loads. In order to optimize the scaling factors of FLPSSs, the Integral Squared Error (ISE) of rotor speed deviation is formulated as an objective function. Evaluation of the proposed controller involves simulating the test system under different conditions. These conditions range from small perturbations, such as changes in one of the system parameters, to large changes, such as removing a main transmission line, to determine its effectiveness. A comparison of ABC-FLPSS with FLPSS and Conventional Power System Stabilizer (CPSS) shows that the ABC-FLPSS controller is superior to FLPSS and CPSS.

The energy sector in the Gambia is entirely dependent on imported petroleum products for electricity generation. The country is not only vulnerable to global oil market disruptions but also has an unstable electricity supply system. As of 2020, a huge portion of the country’s electricity demand remains unsatisfied. Following recent government intervention to improve the energy system, this paper examined the optimal capacity expansion planning using the open-source energy modelling system (OSeMOSYS) on a time horizon of thirty years, (2020-2050). The three scenarios studied include the business as usual (BAU), which reflects the continuation with the existing power generation pattern, the second scenario (roadmap) aligns with the Gambia’s strategic electricity roadmap (2021-2040) and the third scenario considered high renewable penetration in the energy mix. Contrary to policy makers expectations, renewables accounted for only 19.2% of electricity generation in the roadmap by 2030 and 11% by 2050. CO2 emission in 2050 reduced by 31% in the roadmap scenario and 71% in the new scenario. The global cost of the new scenario is 29% more expensive than the roadmap scenario but becomes more competitive than the roadmap in terms of energy cost when the capital investment is fully subsidised in all scenarios.

The paper deals with optimisation of energy storage systems technology for emergency shelters (tiny houses) for Ukrainian War refugees. Huge number of Ukrainian citizens lost their houses or had to leave their homes. These refugees increase population in the rest of Ukraine what escalates problems with accommodation and integration into native communities. Emergency living in communal properties has unpleasant influence on the communities and is acceptable just for limited period. It becomes important to build new quarters or urban areas using cheap but energy efficient technologies. This research is based on real shelter project realised between Ukrainian non-government organisation Synergy and German development agency weChange. Main task of this paper is optimisation of energy strategy in community consisting of hundreds or thousands units and called shelter city. Solution of one single tiny house with implemented RES is task deeply evaluated in several projects, but we must take into account cooperation of large amount of units to limit total influence on Ukrainian distribution and transmission networks. Ukrainian infrastructure was already in unpleasant state before war and new connections of these consumers would dramatically overload existing infrastructure. This task is yet more complicated in nowadays war conditions, where crucial parts of the networks are being repeatedly damaged. From this point of view, it is essential to design the shelter community like consumer o prosumer with perfectly balanced load and production chart. The shelters should be built in passive standard to achieve minimal acquisition and operational costs. Also very efficient but cheap energy storage system must be integrated on the level of particular shelter or entire shelter city. Influence of various battery technologies using different coupling schemes is being discussed. AC coupling, DC coupling with intermediate circuit or PV generator circuit are tuned for specific load charts to optimise the influence on distribution network.
