Modern power supply and lighting systems of cities are complex electrical systems of an automated type, in which the processes in individual power supply systems and city lighting systems are interconnected and interdependent. Therefore, the search for efficient technologies for the transmission of electrical energy in them is an extremely difficult task. The real state of the power supply and lighting systems in cities today is characterized by low operating efficiency, largely due to the low quality of electrical energy and insufficient compensation of reactive power in them. The mutual influence of power supply and lighting systems in cities, as well as the presence of significant voltage deviations and the overflow of additional reactive power in the networks, causes an increase in voltage and power losses in them, as well as a decrease in the efficiency of networks and connected consumers, in general. Unfortunately, the existing methods and technical means based on them cannot fully solve this problem. The research carried out made it possible to clarify the nature of the processes in the power supply systems and the sanitation of cities and to determine the methods and technical means based on the Smart Grid concept. They are based on the use of phase-shifting booster transformers with an electronic control system. Their use made it possible to provide the possibility of complex control of the voltage modes of active and reactive power with the possibility of installation at any point in the network and centralized control from a single centre. The calculations show that the use of the developed methods and technical means provides an opportunity to reduce power losses in networks by 10–15% and energy costs for consumers by 50–75%.

The paper is devoted to the development of technology for reducing the consumption and losses of electrical energy of railway transport enterprises on the basis of the concept of “smart enterprise”. A design solution to the monitoring and management system for energy efficiency indicators was proposed; monitored parameters and influencing factors were determined. The application of the simulation model in the MATLAB/Simulink program for determining the set values of the monitored system parameters, namely, power losses and power factor depending on the influencing factors, is considered. The approximating equation is obtained. Specific power losses were calculated for various control options.

The purpose of the paper is to develop a methodology for modeling railway power supply systems equipped with a set of devices implemented on the base of smart grid technologies. The research is carried out using the Fazonord software package designed for modeling the modes of railway power supply systems in phase coordinates. The calculation model is implemented for the power supply system of a two-track section with five traction substations. The results obtained show that reliable and high-quality power supply of train traction and non-traction consumers can be ensured on the basis of the integrated use of active Smart Grid elements, such as a phase number converter, active harmonic conditioner, controlled reactive power source, and a distributed generation unit. Computer simulation allows to establish that in the absence of reactive power sources there are noticeable voltage fluctuations on 10 kV buses of non-traction consumers; the asymmetry is approaching the limit of normally acceptable values; disabling of the active filter results in the increase of the total harmonic coefficient of voltages up to 16%; if the entire complex of active devices is available, the high quality of electrical energy is achieved; the phase number converter is robust and features low sensitivity to the errors in parameter setting; voltage deviations caused by the limited variation range of reactive power in the reactive power source are short-term and do not exceed the values acceptable in practice. Thus, on the basis of Smart Grid technologies, distributed generation units can be connected directly to the traction network using a phase number conversion device formed according to the reciprocal Steinmetz circuit. Elimination of harmonic distortions created by rectifier electric locomotives is carried out by means of an active conditioner of higher harmonics. A controlled reactive power source can be used to maintain voltage levels.

Metro is integral to the urban rail transit with the expansion of the city. Due to the tremendous power consuming of the traction load which is generally considered to be megawatt class, the attendant problems concerning energy-saving and emission-reduction cannot be neglected. An approach wherein the photovoltaic plants are connected into the metro traction power supply system to provide electrical energy is proposed in this paper. Given the deterioration of power quality brought about by PV connection, the photovoltaic inverter adopts output reactive power control method.

Residential and industrial buildings with large territorial dimensions, have mainly radial power supply schemes, which feed a large number of small and medium capacity 0.4 kV induction motors. For their power supply copper or aluminum cables of small cross-section (with high active resistance) are used. Calculations of electricity losses in such lines show significant values. In order to reduce active power losses in 0.4 kV cable lines, the optimization problem of minimizing active power losses in the radial power supply circuit is solved by optimal distribution of reactive power of a given value between compensating devices. The single-line scheme of power supply of a group of pumps of technological installation of petrochemical production is considered, the mathematical model of the optimization problem on criterion of minimum of active losses in power lines from reactive power flow is made, which limitations are presented as a system of linear algebraic equations. Results of distribution of optimum values of reactive power between compensating devices of asynchronous motors at maintenance of the set tg φ are received. The quantitative estimation of active power loss reduction in power lines at use of capacitor units, which reactive power is optimally distributed, is given.

Smart Grid is a concept for transforming the electric power grid by using advanced automaticcontrol and communications techniques and other forms of information technology. It integratesinnovative tools and technologies from: generation, transmission and distribution. This also includesconsumer appliances and equipment. This concept integrates energy infrastructure, processes, devices,information and markets into a coordinated and collaborative process. All allowing energy to be generated,distributed and consumed flexibly and efficiently. However, the Smart Grid with the integration ofdistributed generation itself also creates a several disadvantages. There can be problems with: stabilityand reliability, relay protection, isolation and operational isolation in which the problem is to create aburden on the distribution grid when transmitting electrical energy sources. Optimizing power flow andbringing high operating efficiency on Smart Grid conditions is an urgent issue. This paper focuses onresearching and proposing solutions for optimal calculation of power flow on Smart Grid. The paper hasresearched, and analyzed calculation solutions to optimize power flow and proposed to use the Lagrangemultiplier method. The study performed calculations for a typical Smart Grid model with three distributedgenerations. Calculation results have shown that the role of the method is to fully perform the optimalcalculation of the power flow on the grid. This is in order to reduce power loss and energy loss as well asincreasing operational efficiency while improving power quality in Smart Grid conditions.

The guidelines for the design of rural and urban power supply systems do not consider the issues of reactive power compensation and reduction in additional losses due to unbalanced and non-sinusoidal conditions. At the same time, today’s rural power consumers have a great number of non-linear loads in their residential premises. Moreover, the unbalanced phase currents and voltages are an established fact. The paper aims to demonstrate the extent to which power quality and losses vary in real rural 0.38 kV networks. To this end, the objectives were posed to study the operation of two facilities: 1- switchgear at the cottage (with an installed capacity of 15 kW); 2- switchgear at the communal entrance hallway for 60 apartments in an apartment building (with an installed capacity of 75 kW).
