Optimal Management of Energy Storage Systems for Peak Shaving in a Smart Grid

In this paper,the installation of energy storage systems(EES)and their role in grid peak load shaving in two echelons,their distribution and generation are investigated.First,the optimal placement and capacity of the energy storage is taken into consideration,then,the charge-discharge strategy for this equipment is determined.Here,Genetic Algorithm(GA)and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)are used to calculate the minimum and maximum load in the network with the presence of energy storage systems.The energy storage systems were utilized in a distribution system with the aid of a peak load shaving approach.Ultimately,the battery charge-discharge is managed at any time during the day,considering the load consumption at each hour.The results depict that the load curve reached a constant state by managing charge-discharge with no significant changes.This shows the significance of such matters in terms of economy and technicality.

Optimal Allocation of STATCOM to Enhance Transient Stability Using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm

With the daily expansion of global energy consumption,developing the power grids is of uttermost importance.However,building a new trans-mission line is costly and time-consuming,so utilizing the same lines with possible higher transmission capacity is very cost-effective.In this regard,to increase the capacity of the transmission lines,the flexible alternating current transmission system(FACTS)has been widely used in power grids in recent years by industrialized countries.One of the essential topics in electrical power systems is the reactive power compensation,and the FACTS plays a significant role in controlling the reactive power current in the power grid and the system voltage oscillations and stability.When a static synchronous compensator(STATCOM)is embedded in a power system to increase the bus voltage,a supplementary damping controller can be designed to enhance the system oscillation damping.Given the expansion of the grids in the power system,the complexity of their optimization and the extraordinary ability of the imperialist competitive algorithm(ICA)for solving such problems,in this paper,the ICA has been used to determine the optimal position and size of the FACTS devices.

Heating-Cooling Monitoring and Power Consumption Forecasting Using LSTM for Energy-Efficient Smart Management of Buildings: A Computational Intelligence Solution for Smart Homes

Energy management in smart homes is one of the most critical problems for the Quality of Life(QoL)and preserving energy resources.One of the relevant issues in this subject is environmental contamination,which threatens the world's future.Green computing-enabled Artificial Intelligence(Al)algorithms can provide impactful solutions to this topic.This research proposes using one of the Recurrent Neural Network(RNN)algorithms known as Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)to comprehend how it is feasible to perform the cloud/fog/edge-enabled prediction of the building's energy.Four parameters of power electricity,power heating,power cooling,and total power in an office/home in cold-climate cities are considered as our features in the study.Based on the collected data,we evaluate the LSTM approach for forecasting parameters for the next year to predict energy consumption and online monitoring of the model's performance under various conditions.Towards implementing the Al predictive algorithm,several existing tools are studied.The results have been generated through simulations,and we find them promisingforfutureapplications.
