Because of the dependency of output power of the PV cells to the irradiance and temperature. noticeable amount of fluctuations is injected to the system that is not acceptable and should be reduced so that the power quality of the system is improved. In this paper application of the ECS …
Read More »Optimal Control of Distributed Energy Resources using Model Predictive Control
An optimal MPC-based control strategy is proposed for coordinating different DERs for an isolated power system. The designed MPC control strategy is able to meet all the performance objectives which are to minimize fuel costs and changes in power output of diesel generators (minimizing mechanical wear and tear). minimize costs …

In general. evaluating energy systems is a complex analysis that can be defined as a multi-dimensional space of different indicators and objectives. The use of multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) techniques provides a reliable methodology to rank alternative renewable energy resources. technologies and projects in the presence of different objectives and …

The simulation results shows that proposed control scheme provides required voltage stability in an islanded microgrid and thereby improves power quality at the consumer terminal. Different test conditions have been identified and simulated under islanded microgrid to analyse the effectiveness of D-statcom. The simulation clearly shows that proposed D-statcom can …
