One of the critical challenges of wind power integration is the variable and uncertain nature of the resource. This paper investigates the variability and uncertainty in wind forecasting for multiple power systems in six countries. An extensive comparison of wind forecasting is performed among the six power systems by analyzing the following scenarios: (i) wind forecast errors throughout a year...

abstract many people know the important effects of caspian sea winds and storms on the economy of three provinces of iran including gilan, mazandaran, and golestan that they form one exclusive and extent area which have moderate and humid climate. this paper used a synoptic climatologically approach, which combine a number of atmospheric factors. using daily and monthly winds data including the...

Although fossil fuel is the main energy supplier of the worldwide economy, due to its ad‐ verse effects on environment, the scientists look for alternative resources in power genera‐ tion. Electricity generation using renewable energy has been well recognized as environmentally friendly, socially beneficial, and economically competitive for many appli‐ cations. Wind turbines, photovoltaic syste...

Wind power systems have strong nonlinear characteristic, when wind speed is below the rated value. A novel intelligent hybrid maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller for variable-speed wind power systems is designed, linear parameter-varying (LPV) gain-scheduling controller is designed to regulate output of fast-dynamics generator torque, neural network compensator is used to eliminate t...

The impact of different energy storages on power systems has become more important due to the development of energy storage technologies. This paper optimizes the stochastic scheduling of a wind-based multiple energy system (MES) and evaluates the operation of the proposed system in combination with electrical and thermal demand-response programs and the three-mode CAES (TM-CAES) unit. The prop...

The operation planning problem encounters several uncertainties in terms of the power system’s parameters such as load, operating reserve and wind power generation. The modeling of those uncertainties is an important issue in power system operation. The system operators can implement different approaches to manage these uncertainties such as stochastic and fuzzy methods. In this paper, new ...

Many stars are known to drive stellar winds of the solar wind type. Thus when moving through the ambient interstellar medium these stars not simply ionize this medium but also interact as moving stellar wind systems. Only neutral interstellar gas components can directly enter the inner stellar wind region and there undergo charge exchange reactions with the supersonic stellar wind protons. Ther...

todays, productivity and efficiency of irrigation have been in the center of the many water-related issues. by using sprinkler irrigation systems in addition to watering easier and automatic, that is a device for raising water application uniformity and efficiency which ultimately will save water consumption and production increase. in this study, four fixed irrigation systems of khorramabad ci...

Control systems for variable-speed wind turbines (WTs) are continuously evolving toward innovative and more efficient solutions. Among the various techniques, fuzzy logic is gaining reputation due to its simplicity and effectiveness. In this chapter, after a review of fuzzy logic based control applied to wind energy conversion systems, a sensorless peak power tracking control for maximum wind e...
