Distributionally Robust

Aiming at the reliable grid connection of photovoltaic (PV) systems in frigid plateau regions, this work first designs a flexible hot dry rock (HDR) hybrid power system (HPS), making full use of the potential of HDR for energy storage and power generation. Based on the operation of HPS, a comprehensive energy system credible capacity assessment method considering the overall economy of the system and the reliability of the grid is established. In this method, the power allowable fluctuation rate of the grid as the equivalent firm capacity (EFC) constraint is considered. Then, the constraint is converted into a set of linear chance conditions through the distributionally robust method so that the capacity assessment of the HDR-PV HPS can be converted into a mixed-integer linear optimization problem for a solution. The proposed assessment method is verified by real HDR-PV HPS in the Gonghe Basin of Qinghai Province. The results show that the flexible HDR plant increases the credible capacity of the HPS by 113.38%. The profit of the flexible HDR plant was increased by 3.02% at the same time. The parameter analysis shows that the HDR-PV HPS obtains the most profit when the allowable fluctuation rate is 7%, but 10% can fully utilize the geothermal. The assessment method can effectively assess the credible capacity of the system under the premise of ensuring the overall economy of the HPS, thereby guiding power grid dispatching.

Telecommunications industry requires efficient, reliable and cost-effective hybrid power system as alternative to the power supplied by diesel generator. This paper proposed an operational control algorithm that will be used to control and supervise the operations of PV/Wind-Diesel hybrid power generation system for GSM base station sites. The control algorithm was developed in such a way that it coordinates when power should be generated by renewable energy (PV panels and Wind turbine) and when it should be generated by diesel generator and is intended to maximize the use of renewable system while limiting the use of diesel generator. Diesel generator is allocated only when the demand cannot be met by the renewable energy sources including battery bank. The developed algorithm was used to study the operations of the hybrid PV/Wind-Diesel energy system. The control simulation shows that the developed algorithm reduces the operational hours of the diesel generator thereby reducing the running cost of the hybrid energy system as well as the pollutant emissions. With the data collected from the site, a detailed economic and environmental analysis was carried out using micro power optimization software homer. The study evaluates savings associated with conversion of the diesel powered system to a PV/Wind-Diesel hybrid power system.

A sustainable energy system is of utmost importance for any significant development in any nation.This work identified some obstacles inhibiting rapid renewable energy growth in Nigeria and recommended some policy measures in overcoming them. Moreover, a comparative study of off-grid (OG) and grid-connected (GC) small hydro-solar photovoltaic-diesel hybrid system was carried out using Oyan river, Abeokuta, Nigeria as a case study. The hybrid components were modeled with and without the grid. The hydro solar resources data of the area were collected and analyzed using hybrid optimization model for electric renewable (HOMER) software. The simulation results proved that the GC hybrid power system is better than the OG hybrid power system in technical and economic terms depending on the location. This paper, therefore, proposed the use of OG hybrid power system for electrification of distant villages especially where extending the grid seems infeasible and the use of GC hybrid power system in the urban areas. The work will assist power sector stakeholders in making informed decisions towards the growth of hybrid power system technology in Nigeria.

This paper proposes optimal control strategies of a standalone Hybrid Power System (HPS) to supply sustainable and optimal energy to an isolated site with improved quality of electrical energy. A topology of Isolated Hybrid Power System (IHPS) is proposed, consists of: a Photovoltaic System (PVS), a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS), electronic power devices controlled to maximize energy production from renewable sources and to maintain the constant DC-link voltage, a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), Diesel Generator (DG), and a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) located at the load-side end. In addition, a novel control strategy has been proposed, in this work, to maximize the power from the PVS. This presented strategy, based on the combination between Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm and the Fuzzy PI Controller (FPIC), presents a good performance, especially in the dynamic state compared to the classical algorithm P&O. A supervisory control algorithm has been elaborated to manage the energy flows between the devices of the hybrid system to make the decision of the optimal operating mode in order to ensure a continuous supply of the load with minimum usage of batteries and DG. The simulation results developed in the Matlab/Simulink environment are applied to show the efficiency and performance of the proposed control strategies in terms of power optimization and energy management. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2021-01262 Full Text: PDF

In this paper, the mixed integer linear programming (MILP) for solving unit commitment (UC) problems in a hybrid power system containing thermal, hydro, and wind power have been studied. To promote its efficiency, an improved MILP approach has been proposed, while the symmetric problem in MILP formulas has been solved by reforming hierarchical constraints. Experiments on different scales have been conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The results indicate a dramatic efficiency promotion compared to other popular MILP approaches in large scale power systems. Additionally, the proposed approach has been applied in UC problems of the hybrid power system. Two indexes, fluctuation degree and output degree, have been proposed to investigate the performance of renewable energy sources (RES). Several experiments are also implemented and the results show that the integration of pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES) can decrease the output of thermal units, as well as balance wind power fluctuation according to the load demand.

In order to provide a sustainable energy system, especially in rural areas where grid electricity is not economically or geographically feasible, renewable energy sources appear to be one of the most effective solutions. However, the fluctuating nature and the high cost of kWhr units produced make the system unreliable and not easily affordable to the rural dwellers. This paper discussed the feasibility of renewable energy hybrid system and proposed a reliable independent Hybrid Power System (HPS) for rural application in Nigeria. Erin-Ijesha a typical rural village in Osun State, Nigeria was used as a case study. Solar irradiation, the hydro potential of the waterfall and load patterns were collected and analyzed for the study area. The electrical load for the village was estimated through the use of questionnaires. HOMER energy modeling software was used to develop the simulation models. The optimized results showed that mini-hydro-photovoltaic-battery combination with Cost of Energy, COE of $0.218/kWh is better than any other combinations considered in the work. It was revealed that purchasing electricity from the grid is better than any other hybrid combinations in terms of COE at $0.121/kWh. Nevertheless, from the result obtained, the HPS is considered cost-efficient and reliable in such rural areas especially where grid extension is geographically or economically infeasible.

Abstract This paper presents the optimal sizing of PV/Wind/Fuel Cell/Battery Hybrid Energy System for energizing a Small Scale Industrial Application or a village domestic load of 200 kW. HOMER software is used for simulation of the complete system. The solar radiation data and wind speed data used in this paper are for the place of Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India which is located 11.0183° N longitude and 76.9725° E latitude. The optimized sizes of components of Hybrid Power System (HPS) are found based on Levelised Cost of Energy (LCE) and total Net Present Cost (NPC). The results are presented and compared for five different combinations of HPS components. Suggestions are also presented to choose the low cost system which produces energy at low LCE.
