Conventional reliability assessment method mainly consists of three steps: building component-level reliability model, establishing system-level reliability model and assessing the reliability by reliability metrics. However, this traditional method have some limitations for power converters with partial redundancy and variable power distribution: for the component-level reliability analysis, it is very difficult to determine the importance of the component failure rate; For the system-level reliability analysis, the existing models do not work well for the power converters with partly redundant components; For the conventional reliability metrics, the converters reliability cannot be fully described when the power distribution of the converters varies. In order to solve these problems, three improvements are proposed by this paper. Firstly, failure rates of all components are compared and the important ones are chosen. Secondly, a system-level reliability hybrid model, which considering partial redundancy, is proposed. Thirdly, a new reliability metric MTTFr is presented to evaluate the reliability with variable power distribution. In this paper, a compact motor drive of the electric vehicle is utilized to validate the superiority of the proposed improvements.

Incineration is one of the methods in providing an efficient management of the municipal solid waste problem. At the same time, the energy released during the combustion of the waste can be harnessed for heat and generation of electricity. While there is potential for improved harnessing of electricity, the high chloride and sulphate content found in the waste limited the steam temperature to the current 400°C due to corrosion issues. Another limiting factor is the fluctuation in the gas temperature, which resulted in an unstable supply of heat to the heat exchangers. This paper briefly reviews the corrosion mechanism and the issues related to the temperature fluctuation from the combustion. This paper also discusses the current and new technologies used to overcome the corrosion attack on the ferrous surface and the temperature fluctuation.

The utilization of renewable energy resources intimately relate to sustainable development. Rapid increase in population and industrial development have propelled water resources to the forefront of challenges facing modern societies. Water covers about two thirds of the earth's surface; <1% is suitable for domestic and industrial use. In this study a work has been made to present a review, in brief, work of the highlights that have been achieved during the recent years world-wide and the state-of-the-art for most important efforts in the field of desalination by renewable energies, with emphasis on technologies and economics. This paper focuses on water sources, power demands and availability of potable water and purification methods that can be implemented in various remote islands in Singapore. A comparative study has been done to power the desalination plant using various renewable energy technologies. Solar powered RO desalination can possibly fill the belief of currently used desalination on fossil fuels, reduced operational costs, and improved environmental sustainability.

SiC MOSFETs are well known for possessing lower losses compared with silicon MOSFETS or IGBTs. In order to drive them efficiently, suitable drivers must be designed. However, most commercially available drivers and drivers in literature are suitable for only a limited range of SiC MOSFETs due to limitations on the MOSFET's gate voltage ratings. Hence, the drivers do not allow the designer to easily experiment with different SiC MOSFET models. In this paper, a generic SiC gate driver with adjustable positive and negative voltage rail is presented. The performance of the proposed driver is compared with a commercially available driver through experiment and it is shown that the proposed gate driver is able to drive the chosen SiC MOSFET more efficiently.

This paper presents a benchmark to model power systems market mechanisms from the generation mix to the end-users. The objective is to develop a platform that can help solving long-term planning problems. The operation described here is the joined day-ahead (DA) clearing for the wholesale market and the individual optimal scheduling of end-users equipped with distributed solar generation and storage. The implemented methods lie on linear programming whose fast computation allows to consider the decentralized control of an important number of end-users. Several scenarios are investigated with different retail prices and CO2 mitigation policies as well as different sizes for the decentralized assets at the end-users’ level

In recent years, gas-insulated substations (GIS) have been widely used in power systems. However, because of its compact structure, very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO) with frequencies up to tens or even hundreds of megabytes can easily occur when switching devices such as disconnectors and circuit breakers are operated. Through research, it has been found that the generation of VFTO can often cause the GIS shell circulation and transient ground potential to rise, resulting in significant losses.This paper takes a GIS test field as the object of analysis and proposes a distribution parameter analysis model for the transient process of such equipmentCby establishing a transient ground network model that takes into account the mutual inductance between grounding bodies, the potential change of the grounding grid and the change of the transient current at the point of entry are analyzed.The results show that the VFTO voltage of the key nodes in the GIS is affected by the external conditions of the GIS equipment. Changing the external conditions of GIS equipment, the GIS shell transient ground potential rise will also change. Based on this characteristic, this article discusses how to suppress transient ground potential rise in GIS.

The SiC MOSFETs are replacing Si IGBTs in power electronics applications due to its several intrinsic features, such as higher temperature operation availability, higher breakdown electric field and higher switching speed. However, for the medium voltage range above 1.7 kV, the SiC MOSFETs are still at their early development stage and are not ready for commercialization. This paper presents the characterization and evaluation of 3.3 kV, 5 A SiC MOSFETs. They are the samples from GeneSiC and are not commercialized yet. Static and dynamic tests are performed for the device at different working conditions. For static tests, I-V characteristics, Rds(on) and parasitic capacitors characteristics were recorded for different temperatures. The dynamic tests were done with a Double Pulse Tester (DPT) with an inductive load up to 1.8 kV. The switching speed and switching loss are evaluated and analyzed for different conditions. A simple energy effective and charge effective Coss calculation method through DPT test results is proposed. The test results show its potential in medium voltage applications, especially in multistage cascaded topology.

Smart grid technology development progression has created a chance for the end users participation in the energy market. Singapore government has carried out the demand response programme for wholesale market since April of 2016. The Demand Side Management (DSM) in this paper looks into critical factors that will help users to reduce the energy bill with these solutions such as time-of-use (ToU) price, real-time price (RTP) and direct participation in the Demand Responses(DR) programme. This study reviews benefits for both market and users. These solutions would allow the users to become an active participant in the energy market. It also allows the government to plan better on the limited and costly energy resources, improve system reliability, and reduce transmission and distribution congestion, check and balance on the market power generation. Algorithms, such as linear programming, non-linear programming and machine learning are used in this paper to provide a numerical analysis for different DSM strategies. The research will make Singapore energy market more resilient and reducing energy consumption by introducing competition.
