The earth suffers from extreme air pollution, climate changes, problems due to usage underground carbon resources applications materialized industrial, transport, domestic sectors. countries under Cooperation Council, i.e., Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Uni...

This paper deals with the most relevant issues about the integration of renewable generation in weak power grids. Initially, the main parameters that characterize these types of networks are reviewed, in terms of short circuit power, system inertia and frequency and voltage characteristics. Afterwards, improvement measures in the structure of weak power grids are proposed, analyzing different s...

The objective is to develop a system model to simulate distributed power generation in power parks, where power generation is co-located with businesses or industries. The deliverable of the project will be a tool for simulation of the local power generation system, constructed in the Simulink software. We have developed a library of modules for the various components being proposed for power p...

Voltage control is one of the imperative issues in the smart distribution control system. While traditional distribution network is equipped with communication and monitoring equipment, the online voltage control can be perfectly achieved. With using these smart grid technologies, the distribution voltage control schemes should carry out intelligently and cover the undesirable effect of high pe...

The importance of sustainability is meanwhile well known in research as well as in practice. One way to produce more sustainable goods is the use of renewable resources. In this paper we present a two-staged study, consisting of a quantitative survey followed by qualitative interviews with companies which use renewable resources as an input for production. The focus of our study is on the diffu...
