A linear programming (LP) routine was implemented to model optimal energy storage dispatch schedules for peak net load management and demand charge minimization in a grid-connected, combined photovoltaic-battery storage system (PV+ system). The LP leverages PV power output and load forecasts to minimize peak loads subject to elementary dynamical and electrical constraints of the PV+ system. Bat...

In this paper, a comprehensive real-time dispatch model considering renewable uncertainty based on dynamic load flow (DLF) is proposed. Through DLF, the primary and secondary frequency regulation amount caused by the variation of renewable energy as well as the line flow when primary and secondary regulation are deployed can be obtained easily. Not only the frequency constraints, but also the r...

The source maintenance technology of the smart substation offers the base for the models, data and graphs sharing between the substation and the dispatch center. This paper researches on the conversion technology between SCD model in IEC 61850 Ed. 2 and the CIM model in IEC 61970. The substation provides SVG and SCD documents to the dispatch center, which includes primary equipment information ...

Optimal system operation, in general, involves the consideration of economy of operation, system security, emissions at fossil-fuel plants, optimal release of water at hydro power plants etc. and aim at improving the efficiency of the power system. In this research work, consideration will be given to two aspects of the optimal system operation, emissions and economy of operation, also known as...

Received Mar 17, 2017 Revised Aug 7, 2017 Accepted Sep 1, 2017 This paper discusses economic load dispatch Problem is modeled with nonconvex functions. These are problem are not solvable using a convex optimization techniques. So there is a need for using a heuristic method. Among such methods Teaching and Learning Based Optimization (TLBO) is a recently known algorithm and showed promising res...

In programming we some times need to choose between several implementations of the same functionality based on the run-time types of several arguments. This is called Dynamic Multiple Dispatch. One example of Dynamic Multiple Dispatch is the geometry dispatcher in OpenTissue, which takes a pair of geometry objects and selects a collision-detection function based on the objects type. Unfortunate...

STUDY OBJECTIVE To compare rates of undertriage and overtriage of six ambulance dispatch protocols for the presenting complaint of nontraumatic abdominal pain, and to identify the optimal protocol. DESIGN Retrospective prehospital and emergency department chart review to classify patients' conditions as "emergency" or "nonemergency." Utility analysis was used to identify the preferred protoco...

The inaugural European Emergency Medical Dispatch conference was held in Stockholm, Sweden, in May 2013. We provide a synopsis of the conference proceedings, highlight key topic areas of emergency medical dispatch and suggest future research priorities.

Economic Dispatch Problem (EDP) has been discussed with reference to the developments based on Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) approaches. A selected survey / overview on Economic Dispatch using Artificial Neural Network within the IEE/IEEE publications frame work have been presented.
