Increasing threats of global warming and climate changes call for an energy-efficient and sustainable design of future wireless communication systems. To this end, a novel two-scale stochastic control framework is put forth for smartgrid powered coordinated multi-point (CoMP) systems. Taking into account renewable energy sources (RES), dynamic pricing, two-way energy trading facilities and impe...

Transmission active power losses can influence the distribution of power flows in the transmission grid which consequently alter the generation dispatch and scheduling through the power system. This can especially affect the exploitation of large scale renewable energy sources (RES) since they are normally installed far away from load centres. RES technologies are expected to cover a large port...

Energy is an important fact for a country for both its socio-economic development and economic growth. Main energy source on earth is the fossil fuels. However, the usage of fossil fuels causes global warming whose negative effects have recently been felt by all over the world. Also, because it is limited on earth, increased energy demand and high energy prices increase concerns on fossil fuels...

Off-grid has several complimentary functional applications and succinctly it has been regarded to be important technology to realize as its reliability, sustainability and techno-economic solution of energy. Among various decentralized generation techniques, hybrid renewable energy source (HRES) is one of the promising techniques in terms of sustainability, simplicity of operation and commissio...

The need for effective energy harvesting from renewable resources becomes increasingly important, especially in the light of the inevitable depletion of the fossil fuel energy sources. Among renewable energy sources, wind energy represents one of the most attractive alternatives. In this thesis, we construct several stochastic optimization models, including the traditional risk-neutral expectat...

Renewable Energy Sources are nowadays rapidly growing popularity at the distribution level which employs power electronic converters, which ensures reliable operation to customers. Among the RES, wind energy is now firmly established as a mature technology for electricity generation. This paper discusses the role of ac/dc/ac power converter for grid interface of wind energy. The generator side ...

High costs, unreliable resources for long term use and extensive negative impact on our environment are such problems associated with traditional sources of energy and fossil fuels which make us move toward implementation of renewable sources of energy. Fossil fuel pollution and reserve depletion in oil producing countries caused by increasing demands, make wind energy an attractive source of e...

This paper presents a formulation of unit commitment for thermal units integrated with wind and solar energy systems and electrical vehicles with emphasizing on Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP). The renewable energy resources are included in this model due to their low electricity cost and positive effect on environment. As well as, coordinated charging strategy of electrical vehicle...

Vietnam is widely considered as an energy-intensive economy. Renewable energy integration has been set important goal in the country’s revised Power Development Plan 7 (PDP7). This study first conducted a generation adequacy assessment using basic probabilistic modeling approach to evaluate how fleet, foreseen PDP7, can meet demand, despite fast-changing renewable sources (RES) generation. The ...

Renewable Energy consists of energy generated from natural and unlimited sources, which include, among others, wind, solar, biomass and hydroelectricity. These energy sources, unlike the fossil fuels, do not contribute to the greenhouse gas emissions, namely the carbon dioxide emissions, and do not suffer from depletion as well. The global environmental alertness to protect Earth from the devas...
