With the restructuring of power systems, increase of renewable energy sources, and as networks become smarter, power systems are facing new challenges such as uncertainty in available energy resources. An appropriate solution to address these challenges are to use energy storage systems. Therefore, sizing, location, and selection of energy storage systems are important to maximize their benefit...

In current research, energy efficiency and technical efficiency of wheat farmers were calculated in Mazandaran province. To estimate technical efficiency the Stochastic Nonparametric Envelopment of Data (StoNED) was used. The model incorporating nonparametric data envelopment analysis model which contain the smoothness and concavity constraints with stochastic frontier analysis model. The requi...

The increase in fossil fuel prices has resulted in growing utilization of renewable energy sources in power systems. Wind energy as an economical source of energy has experienced the fastest growth among other energy sources. Traditionally, renewable energy sources as a result of their random nature have not been considered in the process of generation expansion planning. The increase in fossil...

Nowadays, with the use of devices such as fossil distributed generation and renewable energy resources and energy storage systems that are operated at the level of distribution networks, the problem of optimal reconfiguration has faced major challenges, so any change in the power of this resources can have different results in reconfiguration. Similarly, load changes during the day can lead to ...

With the increasing use of renewable energy systems and the volatility of access to this type of energy, needs energy storage systems to sustain the system. In the meantime, energy storage systems have distinct characteristics and applications, one of which is the compressed air energy storage system. In the present paper, the newest researches and novel systems in the field of energy storage b...
