Temporal plans permit significant flexibility in specifying the occurrence time of events. Plan execution can make good use of that flexibility. However, the advantage of execution flexibility is counterbalanced by the cost during execution of propagating the time of occurrence of events throughout the flexible plan. To minimize execution latency, this propagation needs to be very efficient. Pr...

Remote-controlled switches (RCSs) have the ability to quickly isolate faulted area from other parts of distribution systems. On hand, distributed generation resources (DGs) and tie lines can supply interrupted loads after fault occurrence as a microgrid. In this regard, paper proposes planning model for simultaneous placement RCSs, dispatchable DGs (DDGs), in systems with complex topologies imp...

This paper presents a mechanism for active power sharing among multiple dispatchable and distributed generation units within micro grid comprising one or interconnections with the main grid. Ideally, should act as constant load voltage source when connected to However, achieve ideal operation, natural variations intermittency of renewable energy sources microgrid need be adequately timely compe...

Microgrid is commonly regarded as an efficient way for integration of distributed generation (DG) in low voltage network. However, the integration method of microgrid in power system for maximum benefit needs to be further promoted. In this paper, a stochastic bidding strategy of microgrid in a joint dayahead market of energy and spinning reserve service is proposed taking into account of uncer...

One of the most important requirements of microgrid operation is to maintain a constant frequency such as 50 Hz or 60 Hz, which is closely related to a power balance between supply and demand. In general, microgrids are connected to power grids and surplus/shortage power of microgrids is traded with power grids. Since islanded microgrids are isolated from any power grids, the decrease in genera...

This paper presents a new intelligent control strategy for DC microgrid in islanded operation mode based on droop control method. The DC microgrid under study included a Wind Turbine Generator (WTG), photovoltaic (PV), battery energy storage system (BESS) and a linear resistive load. According to the proposed method, each of distributed generation (DG) sources and BESS can be deployed independe...

Deploying distributed renewable energy at the demand side is an important measure to implement a sustainable society. However, massive small solar and wind generation units are beyond control of central operator. To encourage users participate in management reduce dependence on dispatchable resources, peer-to-peer sharing scheme proposed which releases flexibility side. Every user makes decisio...

Microgrid properties including bidirectional power flow in feeders, fault level decrease the islanded mode, and intermittent nature of distributed generators (DGs) result malfunctioning microgrid conventional protection schemes. In present article, a scheme based on impedance is suggested for detection LV MV overhead cable distribution lines both grid-connected modes. To determine index, new eq...

Because of its simplicity and autonomous operation, droop control technique is widely implemented for power generation in microgrids.
