The smart grid is the aggregation of emerging technologies in both hardware and software along with practices to make the existing power grid more reliable and ultimately more beneficial to consumers. The smart grid concept is associated with the production of electricity from renewable energy sources (RES). For the distant isolated regions, microgrids (MG) with RES are offering a suitable solution for remote and isolated region electrification. The improper sizing would lead to huge investment cost which could have been avoided. The objective of this chapter is to review the state-of-the-art studies on the use of optimization techniques to renewable energy design and sizing. The chapter reviews the optimization techniques employed at different components of the microgrid including the energy sources, storage elements, and converters/inverters with their control systems.

Power system decarbonization will be one of the main challenges confronting society over the next twenty to thirty years. Renewable energy sources (RES), such as wind and solar, will be the main resources supplying the power grid. Given their volatility, their integration into the grid necessitates planning and utilizing new flexibility options. Energy storage systems (ESS), multi-energy systems and active consumer involvement are three solutions attracting the scientific community’s attention. Data centers (DCs) provide a very high degree of flexibility for consumers. They can be utilized to support system operators or integrate power generated by locally installed renewable energy source generators in the DC’s network. This study is intended to contribute by developing a methodology for planning new flexibility options in DCs. The methodology developed treats DCs as active multi-energy systems. Control strategies were also developed. The technical and economic performance of the solutions implemented was evaluated.

Modern renewable energy systems (RES) require fault ride through (FRT) operation in order to provide voltage and frequency support to the power grid when faults occur. The grid synchronization of a RES could be ensured by the appropriate operation of a phase-locked loop (PLL). A new hybrid PLL (dαβPLL) has recently been suggested by the authors and could operate accurately and faster than the other existing PLLs. The dαβPLL could be a very useful tool in the FRT operation of a RES, since the faster performance of the new PLL could boost the time performance of the FRT algorithm when a disturbance occurs. This paper investigates the performance of the flexible positive and negative sequence control (FPNSC) when the new dαβPLL is used. The paper also deals with the improvement on the FRT operation of the RES that could be obtained from the outstanding performance of the dαβPLL.
