Electric power systems foresee challenges in stability due to the high penetration of electronics interfaced renewable energy sources.The value storage (ESS) provide fast frequency response has been more and recognized.Although development technologies made ESSs technically feasible be integrated larger scale with required performance, policies, grid codes economic issues are still presenting barriers for wider application investment.Recent years, a few regions countries have designed new...
Microgrids are gaining popularity by facilitating distributed energy resources (DERs) and forming essential consumer/prosumer centric integrated systems. Integration, coordination control of multiple DERs managing the transition in this environment is a strenuous task. Classical techniques not enough to support dynamic microgrid environments. Implementation Artificial Intelligence (AI) seems be promising solution enhance operation microgrids future smart grid networks. Therefore, paper...
In this paper, an alternative control method is proposed to improve the harmonic suppression efficiency of active power filter in a distorted and unbalanced system compensate for perturbations caused by non-linear loads. The uses self-tuning (STF) process grid voltage order provide uniform reference obtain correct angular position phase locked loop. Moreover, required compensation currents are obtained implementing another STF transformed set separate fundamental currents. This allows...

This article addresses the suitable approaches for empowering energy citizens and smart communities through development of community-based microgrid (C-MG) solutions while taking into consideration functional architectural layers system integration topologies, interoperability issues, strategies consumer-centric trading under local electricity market (LEM) mechanism, socio-economic aspects. Thus, this presents state-of-the-art community along with their motivation, advantages challenges,...
New concepts of local electricity markets (LEMs) have led increased focus on the decentralization energy systems and a raise in communities (LECs). Under right market-regulatory incentives, peer-to-peer (P2P) trading schemes facilitate direct trade among prosumers enable active consumers to share self-generated make effective use flexibility services provided by distributed resources (DERs). The paper presents review state implementation LEMs P2P. research questions are: What grid tariff...
This study explores how a battery energy storage system (BESS) can support photovoltaic (PV) power plant operation by simultaneously minimising the PV (PVPP) clipping losses and providing grid ancillary services. For this purpose, deterministic day-ahead control strategy is developed while considering both calendar cycling ageing on BESS multi-value stream. The degradation cost model has also been reformulated to integrate proposed formulation assess impact of different aspects. dispatching...
In this study, the equation for reactive and harmonic power compensation of a shunt active filter (APF) system has been derived by studying exchange mechanism tetrahedron phasor diagram.

Detailed calculation extensive simulation have...
The success of the energy transition in Europe depends on engagement citizens and sustainable replacement conventional generation with renewable production. Highlights PAN European Technology Energy Research Approach (PANTERA) project, a H2020 coordination support action, are presented this paper. In broad terms, PANTERA offers forum for actors smart grid to expansion activities research, demonstration, innovation, especially below-average spending member states Union (EU). focus paper is...
The transformation of passive to energy-active consumers in smart homes has been enabled by the proliferation distributed energy resources (DERs) and demand-side management technologies. Building a community-based electricity market (SCEM) centred around local community potential expedite this tapping flexibility associated with peer-to-peer transactions inside community. article presents systematic approach quantifying benefits homes, starting from energy-passive under SCEM intermediate...
The data-driven (DD) is a systematic approach to improve the data and model by deriving/adding features address problem identified during iterative loop of forecasting development.

It focuses on well models....
Enabling energy storage systems (ESS) is a potential aspect of the transition toward decarbonising sector. Despite ongoing effort to analyse distributed resources enablers and key barriers, several gaps need be addressed in literature on accelerating implementation ESS at citizen level. As citizens are now heart transition, analysing meeting their needs securing engagement utmost importance.
