Power flow control: Solutions for a modern smart grid [Book review]

Optimal Power Flow in the Smart Grid Using Direct Load Control Program

This paper proposes an Optimal Power Flow (OPF) algorithm by Direct Load Control (DLC) programs to optimize the operational cost of smart grids considering various scenarios based on different constraints. The cost function includes active power production cost of available power sources and a novel flexible load curtailment cost associated with DLC programs. The load curtailment cost is based ...

Organizational Control Reconfigurations for a Robust Smart Power Grid

Large-scale cyber-physical infrastructures, such as the Smart Power Grid, are envisioned as some of the core elements of the future Internet of Things. These critical infrastructures move more and more beyond centralized management and control by system operators and administrators. Overloading and failures in the Smart Power Grid threaten the matching of demand-supply especially when new emerg...

Flexible Power Electronic Transformer for Power Flow Control Applications

This paper proposes a Flexible Power Electronic Transformer (FPET) for the application in the micro-grids. The low frequency transformer is usually used at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) to connect the low voltage grid and utility network to each other. The conventional 50Hz transformer results in enhanced low voltage-grid power management system during grid-connected operation. In this pap...
