Many problems in the electricity demand of grid caused by the increases in the population. Moreover, the use of the conventional sources does not meet consumer demand. In this case, the use of renewable power will be very economical and beneficial to provide the required energy of consumers. In addition to that, smart grid is supposed to improve the quality and safety of renewable energy system through the ICT by providing monitoring and controlling capabilities. In this study, renewable energy potential of Algeria is discussed. Furthermore, a simulation of simple scaled micro grid to show the behavior of its components are performed in MATLAB/Simulink as a simple example of smart grid application.

The search for energy alternatives of renewable origin and the reduction of greenhouse gases from the decomposition of waste from slaughter of the camels and the burning of cattle manure have made the present work to be carried out with the objective of obtaining biogas In batch under anaerobic conditions from the mixture of cattle manure with slaughter residues from the Carnal of Pedegral-Arequipa-Peru. Three mixtures of substrates were used: one Ml consisting of 80% cattle manure, 20% bovine and water rumen and two M2 for 20% cattle manure, 30% bovine ruminai content, 50% of blood from cattle and water and three M3 for 10% of beef manure, 20% of ruminai bovine content, 70% of bovine blood and water. These were subjected to different hydraulic retention times (2, 4 and 6 days) and mesophilic TM temperatures (39, 45 and 50°C), resulting in the highest biogas production of 507.0965 ml of biogas/kg of mixture with M3 at a TRH of 6 days and at a TM of 39°C explainable by the high content of N that stabilizes the pH and the isobutyric and valeric acids that increase the biogas production, existing in blood and ruminai content respectively.
寻找可再生能源替代品,减少骆驼屠宰废物分解和牛粪燃烧产生的温室气体,使目前的工作得以开展,目标是在厌氧条件下从牛粪和秘鲁佩格尔-阿雷基帕肉场屠宰残留物的混合物中分批获得沼气。试验采用三种混合底物:1 Ml含80%牛粪、20%牛和水瘤胃;2 M2含20%牛粪、30%牛反刍胃含量、50%牛血和水;3 M3含10%牛粪、20%牛反刍胃含量、70%牛血和水。在不同的水力滞留时间(2、4和6天)和中温TM温度(39、45和50°C)下,在TRH为6天和TM为39°C时,最高的沼气产量为507.0965 ml /kg混合M3,这可以解释为血液和反刍胃中分别存在稳定pH的高N含量和增加沼气产量的异丁酸和戊酸。

Energy arbitrage is attracting interest of Energy Storage Systems developers and owners to provide net revenue in transmission and distribution systems. We have analyzed the potential revenue of a generic Energy Storage System (ESS) within the electricity market of PJM in 8 deferent locations where such technology is already installed. We used hourly Day-Ahead and Real-time locational marginal prices over the seven-year period 2008–2014, assuming a price-taking dispatch with perfect foresight. The charge-discharge profiles were optimized to determine The minimum potential revenue for 1 MW system for 70% round trip efficiency in those 8 locations. We performed a sensitivity analysis to verify the dependence on rated discharge duration and its variation over the years. We determined the breakeven overnight installed cost below which energy arbitrage would be profitable.

This paper proposes a novel parallel control for modular ESSs through the comparative analysis of various conventional parallel control types The VSI modules for ESSs operating in parallel must satisfy the following fundamental requirements: 1) high load sharing performance, 2) tight output regulation, 3) high redundancy, 4) high applicability to both modes for ESSs However, conventional approaches failed to achieve the both goal of high redundancy and high load sharing performance at once. On the contrary, the proposed parallelism control directly controls their output current of each VSI, leading to achieving an excellent load sharing performance without knowledge of their rated-powers and how many VSIs are connected. The verification of the proposed control algorithm is verified by simulation results, 30 kW ESS prototype, and its experimental results.

This paper presents a novel compact AC/AC converter suitable for hybrid microgrids. The proposed topology is used to interconnect two three-phase renewable energy resources and one three-phase load to the grid, side by side with the appropriate generalized pulse width modulation and control method of the microgrid power flow. The proposed topology, generalized pulse width modulation, and the utilized control methods are introduced in this paper. The proposed converter has impact not only to the size but also to the overall cost of the microgrid. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the validity and the applicability of the proposed converter and the employed control method.

Solar-to-hydrogen energy conversion is a promising technology because it enables high-capacity, long-term storage of solar energy. We propose a new highly efficient solar-to-hydrogen conversion system consisting of multiple converter-electrolyzer sets connected in parallel to a photovoltaic (PV) array. This system is flexible to apply to various PV configurations. One-day simulations based on measured PV and electrolyzer characteristics demonstrate very high maximum power point tracking (MPPT) efficiency (higher than 99.9%) and average power conversion efficiency (94.0%) on a clear sunny day. Annual energy production is expected to increase by 8.5%-point compared with a single converter system using one of the best commercial converter. The key elements of the high efficiency are the new system topology, a specially designed phase-shift full-bridge converter and a control method “P&O with converter scoring” algorithm.

This paper evaluates the impact of local government capital investment subsidies for the installation and the price of rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system in Japan. By creating the micro-level unique panel dataset covering the period between 2009 and 2014, we compared municipalities that employed subsidies with municipalities that did not to analyze their effects on the amount of installation and the system prices. Our results indicated that the municipal subsidies significantly induced the installation of rooftop PV although their effects depended on the several conditions such as income. On the other hand, we found no evidence of an effect on rooftop PV's system price reduction in municipalities with higher exposure to the subsidies. Subsidies rather seemed to have an effect to raise prices up.

This study developed a methodology to determine zones of acceptable voltage profiles for wind power generation connected to distribution systems. Three load profiles (residential, commercial and industrial) connected to the distribution network were analyzed considering the impact on voltage levels and steady-state stability for different wind speeds and wind generator control strategies. The wind generator model is based on doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) and were developed using Matlab/Simulink. The presented methodology can be used to map the impact on operation of different types of control, the time of day and the available wind speed and it is not limited only for DFIG. The results have shown that the methodology helps to find zones were the combination of wind speed, load demand and control strategy can lead the system to voltage levels outside the standard limits. The determination of these zones of inoperability helps the utilities to avoid and prevent the system from fail.

Integrate Solar PV in scalable on to the grid connected and standalone power generation system has increased attention in these days due to its sustainability and more greener generation. This has become a good option to reduce the telecom Radio Base Stations utility power consumption. The techno economic feasibility of Solar PV integration methodologies in to On-Grid telecom based stations, basically in to the DC bus by rectifier systems comprising of inbuilt DC to DC converting Solar PV charger controllers or in to the A/C bus through grid tie inverter system facilitate with “Net metering” are discussed in this paper. It was found that it is successful to integrate Solar PV in to on grid sites with different tariff structures. Finally, this paper discusses ultimate challenge which is techno economically doable by making A/C to DC converting Rectifier Modules in Hybrid Controllers in to Bi Directional Converters with grid tie facility.
