Efficient use of energy and its conservation are important for long-term sustainability. Maximizing the use of generators with competitively lower operating expenses amongst available generators connected in the grid to fulfill grid demand can have lower cost of energy production. In this study, an energy management system has been developed to optimize operation of diesel generators and gas turbines used in Barbados for lowest annual price of electricity generation. An optimization tool has been developed using Matlab Simulink to determine optimized feed-in power and regulation reserves for different generators and with further grid sufficiency assessments. Monte-Carlo method was used for grid stability analysis. It was observed that the optimization tool can regulate the stability of an electrical grid considering technical and economic boundary conditions.

The increased adoption of renewable energy sources is reducing the overall inertial response capability of the modern electric power grid, which translates into larger frequency variation in both transient and pseudo-steady-state operation. Energy storage system (ESS) has the potential to play a significant role in regulating the frequency of more renewable electric power grid. This service is commonly known as frequency response or enhanced frequency response (EFR). Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is a popular choice as an ESS to provide EFR. However, EFR is very dynamic and the battery may have to provide high and fast response. This may accelerate the aging process of the battery. To overcome this issue, hybrid ESS (HESS) comprised of Li-ion battery and supercapacitor (SC) have been proposed in the literature. HESS typically works through power-sharing method (PSM). This work deals with the design of power sharing controllers able to enable the provision of EFR services from HESS. Keeping the battery lifetime in mind, proposed controllers employ a hybrid PSM by combining both proportional integral (PI) control and Fuzzy logic to maintain the battery state of charge (SOC) as close to the reference as possible while providing EFR. Results show that the lifetime of the Li-ion battery can be significantly extended by using the proposed controllers. However, this depends on the capacity of the SC that is used to support the Li-ion battery. Numerous simulation results are provided to demonstrate the suitability of the proposed controllers.

Due to pertinent advantages of multi-level boost DC/DC converters, photovoltaic (PV) applications widely use these converters instead of the conventional DC/DC converters. A comparative study of different maximum power point tracking (MPPT) methods is presented. Perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm, incremental conductance (IC) algorithm, fuzzy logic (FL) control, and P&O algorithm optimized by the neural network (NN) technique are compared and studied to show the intelligent method performance compared to classical ones. The MPPT methods are applied for three level boost (TLB) DC/DC converter in a PV system under varying climatic conditions. The comparative study is simulated in Matlab/Simulink.

A flexible metamaterial (MM) absorber, that operates in the C- and X-band frequency ranges, is reported in this study. The reflection coefficient and absorptivity responses of the proposed MM absorber is analyzed under a variety of incidence angles for transverse electric (TE) polarization. DuPont Pyralux AP9161R material, which contains Kapton polyimide dielectric, is used in the design process. It is observed in the simulation results that when the proposed absorber is bent, it maintains its high absorption characteristic at a wider frequency range in comparison t its planar form. A minimum absorption rate of 99.1% is obtained for both planar and bent absorbers at different angles of incidence

The most suitable method for achieving highly efficient wireless energy transfer for battery charging has been shown to be the resonant inductive connection. However, the performance of this method is dependent on the magnetic coupling and load circumstances, which cause the system’s resonant frequency to shift. This study describes the design and development of a viable 2-coil Wireless Energy Transfer prototype that transmits data at the same time. The energy transfer and data transmission occur at two very distinct frequencies. The energy transfer occurs at tens of kHz and the data transmission, at 2.4 GHz. The resonant inductive coupling is the aim of the operation of the prototype. The communication that is maintained in the system, and the application software that is built, allow the prototype to tune its operation frequency, in relation to the varying resonance, achieving a higher efficiency of the system. The general architecture of the system was chosen as a downscaled model for the future practical application, e.g. for charging stations, connected through Internet of Things (IoT) technologies.

Cellular networks encounter major challenges in terms of interference management and power consumption. To face these challenges, we present a new switched beamforming (SBF) scheme based on the combination of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and space division multiple access (SDMA) techniques. Then, we formulate a joint coordinated SBF and user pairing scheme in order to minimize the transmit power subject to the quality of service (QoS) constraints and pairing constraints in a fully cooperative multicell network. To solve the problem, we first provide an efficient method to compute the optimal beamformers for a user group. Then, we propose an algorithm to find the optimal pairing strategy and the optimal beamforming scheme for each group. Simulation results highlight the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

The increasing penetration of non-synchronous generation into power grids is reducing the equivalent system inertia and leading to different frequency regulation and control challenges. Consequently, the monitoring and quantification of this inertia to implement actions that can keep it above critical levels have become a key issue for the stability of power systems. In this regard, a residual neural network (ResNet) based alternative is proposed and investigated in this paper to estimate the equivalent inertia of a sample system when synchronous generating units are displaced by converter-interfaced generators. The proposed ResNet model is trained according to the frequency of the center of inertia and the corresponding computed rates of change of frequency for a predefined time interval, where sudden generation outages and load step changes are considered under variations of total load demand and equivalent inertia reductions. The accuracy of the proposed approach is compared against the one achieved with the application of two traditional machine learning techniques, such as Support Vector Machine and Random Forest.

In this modern era where energy demand is in-creasing at an exponential rate, energy storage devices play a crucial role in meeting the demands when needed. Rechargeable batteries are gaining momentum as the need for storing electrical energy is increasing day by day. Lithium-ion (Li-ion) technology is better than other rechargeable battery technologies due to its performance characteristics. However, under unfavourable charging and discharging conditions and/or differences in in-ternal parameters, Li-ion batteries tend to heat and adversely affect their performance which results in a reduced life cycle. The process of cell Balancing finds an important role in battery packs which takes the issue of cell imbalance into account. An active cell balancing circuit with an inductor as a storage element has been proposed in this study. The balancing of cells is carried out between four lithium-ion cells connected in series. This paper consists of a detailed study of the design and operation of the cell balancing circuit. An algorithm has been developed in stateflow and simulated on MATLAB.

The Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motors find variety of application in industry because of their linear torque-speed curve, which allows smooth control of their angular speed and position. In this work, authors have proposed a novel Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) controller strategy based on Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) algorithm for the efficient control of speed of BLDC motor. The transient response obtained from LQR-WOA controlled BLDC motor has been evaluated and compared with that of conventional LQR and PID controllers. The proposed work has achieved significant improvements in settling time of the transients while tracking reference speed. Also, the robustness of the proposed method has been discussed after considering step disturbance in the input of the system. Further, the efficacy of proposed method has been re-verified after considering variations in speed reference of BLDC motor.
