This paper discusses dynamic stability and performance of current control scheme for parallel connection of pulse-width modulated (PWM) voltage source converters (VSCs) fed by distributed energy recourses (DERs) across the distribution level of power grid. The controller has feedback compensation and limits the current harmonics while featuring fast regulation for multi-converter system. The co...

A key issue in Low Voltage (LV) distribution systems is to identify strategies for the optimal management and control in the presence of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). To reduce the number of variables to be monitored and controlled, virtual levels of aggregation, called Virtual Microgrids (VMs), are introduced and identified by using new models of the distribution system. To this aim, th...

The concept of virtual power plant (VPP) has been proposed to facilitate the integration of distributed renewable energy. VPP behaves similar to a single entity that aggregates a collection of distributed energy resources (DERs) such as distributed generators, storage devices, flexible loads, etc., so that the aggregated power outputs can be flexibly dispatched and traded in electricity markets...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the association between social anxiety and difficulties in emotion regulation in a sample of Italian young adults. METHODS Our convenience sample was composed of 298 Italian young adults (184 women and 114 men) aged 18-34 years. Participants were administered the Interaction Anxiousness Scale (IAS), the Audience Anxiousness Scale (AAS), the Diffi...

Distributed Energy Resources (DER) are systems that produce electrical power at the site where the power is needed. If only electrical power is used then the technology is called Distributed Generation (DG). The objective of this paper is to study a novel more than five level multistring inverter topology for DERs based DC/AC conversion system. The distributed energy resource based single-phase...

Given the significant concerns regarding carbon emission from the fossil fuels, global warming and energy crisis, the renewable distributed energy resources (DERs) are going to be integrated in the smart grid. This grid can spread the intelligence of the energy distribution and control system from the central unit to the long-distance remote areas, thus enabling accurate state estimation (SE) a...

Abstract: In the traditional paradigm, large power plants provide active and reactive power required for the transmission system and the distribution network purchases grid power from it. However, with more and more distributed energy resources (DERs) connected at distribution levels, it is necessary to schedule DERs to meet their demand and participate in the electricity markets at the distrib...

Let W be a nite group generated by unitary re ections and A be the set of re ecting hyperplanes. We will give a characterization of the logarithmic di erential forms with poles along A in terms of antiinvariant di erential forms. If W is a Coxeter group de ned over R, then the characterization provides a new method to nd a basis for the module of logarithmic di erential forms out of basic invar...
