An optimal scheduling model for a microgrid participating in the electricity distribution market in interaction with a Distribution Market Operator (DMO) is proposed in this paper. The DMO administers the established electricity market in the distribution level, sets electricity prices, determines the amount of the power exchange among market participants, and interacts with the Independent Sys...

This paper presents a method for assessing the voltage and reactive power control impact on the reliability indices of distribution networks. It has been achieved by including network constraints (voltage drop and feeder loading) in the predictive reliability model. The analytical method has been used to evaluate the reliability indices. The proposed method has been tested and validated, using ...

This paper proposes a knowledge-based model to support spatial and temporal analysis of complex networks in data warehouses. The proposed model, inspired from geography, represents the dynamics of spatial elements in the network. Ontologies, describing element classes from a domain, space partitions, and time periods, respectively, help to define dimensions of data marts customized for specific...

performance evaluation of electricity distribution units is an important issue between researchers and regulators. classic data envelopment analysis models with deterministic data have been used by many authors to measure efficiency of power distribution units in different countries. however, data envelopment analysis with stochastic data are rarely used to measure efficiency of distribution co...

Since the early nineties interest in using small generators (CHP systems, small hydro and fossil fuel generators, PV systems and fuel cells) connected to the distribution networks has grown rapidly in many countries, stimulated by a number of important drivers like: expected savings in network costs, improvement of efficiency in energy conversion, creation of open and competitive electricity ma...

With the aim of reducing cost of electricity consumption and peak load reduction, tools requirement for better managing electricity consumption have become inevitable in recent years. Smart home has some equipment which are controllable and this ability is used for increasing comfort and minimizing electricity cost for residence. As a key component of smart home , Electric Vehicle(EV) ,increase...

The statistical tools of Complex Network Analysis are of great use to understand salient properties of complex systems, may these be natural or pertaining human engineered infrastructures. One of these that is receiving growing attention for its societal relevance is that of electricity distribution. In this paper, we present a survey of the most important scientific studies investigating the p...
