Allocation of fixe or flow-dependent inter-zone trading capacities by the PX （power exchange） can not be accepted unreservedly. The paper is meant to show that a nodal electricity market design that is based on bids for local energy and a regulated transmission access including allocation of ＂entry-exit＂ transmission capacity would be the desired solution. The market players could easily optimize their portfolio while the TSOs （transmission system operators） are requested to mobilize the network＇s in-built flexibility to increase the cross zonal capacity. In the proposed market design, the PX＇s allocation of trading capacity is clearly separate from the TSO＇s management of the power system operational constraint5. Clear operator roles would enlarge access to electricity market as well as market integration of variable RESs （renewable energy sources） that are critically dependent on short notice access to regionat markets,展开更多
The installed capacity of a large scale wind power plant will be up to a number of hundreds MW, and the wind power is transmitted to load centers through long distance transmission lines with 220 kV, 500 kV, or 750 kV...The installed capacity of a large scale wind power plant will be up to a number of hundreds MW, and the wind power is transmitted to load centers through long distance transmission lines with 220 kV, 500 kV, or 750 kV. Therefore, it is necessary not only considering the power transmission line between a wind power plant and the first connection node of the power network, but also the power network among the group of those wind power plants in a wind power base, the integration network from the base to the existed grids, as well as the distribution and consumption of the wind power generation by loads. Meanwhile, the impact of wind power stochastic fluctuation on power systems must be studied. In recent years, wind power prediction technology has been studied by the utilities and wind power plants. As a matter of fact, some European countries have used this prediction technology as a tool in national power dispatch centers and wind power companies.展开更多

High availability achievement is a very important factor related to UPS performance, consequently to proper critical application functionality. Generally, UPS have a limited input voltage window, referring to the nominal input voltage value. Goal of this paper is to prove larger voltage window, without affecting normal UPS operation. Larger window will result on less commutation, backup and normal mode reduction, and consequently duty time of batteries reduction, too. Thus, under these conditions, it is to be expected availability improvement. The stabilizing node model, applied at UPS＇s control part through this paper is presented. UPS＇s behavior with an implemented stabilizing node is observed at few sites. In order to analyze and conclude about UPS＇s performance under these technical conditions, simulation results are further presented.展开更多
