Environmental concerns and depletion of nonrenewable resources has made great interest towards renewable energy resources. Cleanness and high potential are factors that caused fast growth of wind energy. However, the stochastic nature of wind energy makes the presence of energy storage systems (ESS) in wind integrated power systems, inevitable. Due to capability of being used in large-scale sys...

Due to the reduction of renewable energy resources such as fossil fuels, the energy crisis is one of the most critical issues in today’s world. The application of these resources brings about many environmentalpollutionsthatleadtoglobalwarming. Therefore,variouscountrieshaveattemptedto reducepotentialdamageanduserenewableenergiesbytheintroductionandpromotionofrenewable energies as an essential ...

this paper presents a new hybrid particle swarm optimization with time varying acceleration coefficients (hpsotvac) and bacteria foraging algorithm (bfa) namely (psotvac/bfa) base fuzzy stochastic long term approach for determining optimum location and size of distributed energy resources (ders). the monte carlo simulation method is used to model the uncertainties associated with long-term load...

this article presents the key insights about the environment and security links in the context of the persian gulf region. this research paper focuses on the challenge of finding a balance among development, armed conflicts and environmental degradation in the persian gulf region. environmental security challenges are human security, sustainable development and regional cooperation in the persi...

concerns related to climate change and security of energy supply is pushing various countries to make strategic energy planning decisions. in this regard, energy system modelling is an appropriate method to find out the utilization of current declining non-renewable energy resources and other possible scenarios. consequently, it is available to consider various aspects of energy system decision...
