In order not to reduce this electrical energy, it must be stored. The sensible energy storage is currently the pumped storage power plants. As the mountain ranges for conventional pumped storage power plants with drop heights of H 〉 600 m are strictly limited, the development of low potential pumped storage power plants has begun. Increasing the capacity of pumped storage power plants with regard to the wind power plants is urgently needed. In this paper, it is shown using the example of an unneeded port facility, how a port facility can be used after low conversion as a test facility for low potential pumped storage power plants and at the same time for the testing of hydro-kinetic turbines. This type of pump storage power plants does not save the energy due to large drop heights, but primarily due to the large volume flow of water.展开更多

Our aim is to minimize total generation costand restrain the frequent change of ESS charging/dischargingstatus while meeting a series of system operating constraints,including a proposed coordinated dispatch strategy for thepurpose of reducing thermal power fluctuations. A novel twostage convexification technique (TSCT) is designed and leveragedto convert the original non-convex optimal day-ahead dispatchmodel, without taking into account the constraints of the proposed coordinated dispatch strategy into two convex quadraticprogramming problems. When introducing the constraint ofthe coordinated dispatch strategy, the corresponding inequalityconstraints are transformed into a series of linear equalityconstraints, after which the original optimal day-ahead dispatchmodel can be solved by the TSCT mentioned above. Finally,numerical simulations and comparative analysis are performedon the IEEE standard test systems to verify the validity andeffectiveness of the proposed model and method.展开更多

For optimization, an enhanced Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to minimize the total cost of the system over a 20-year period, while satisfying some reliability and operation constraints. A case study addressing optimal sizing of an off-grid hybrid microgrid in Nigeria is discussed. The result is compared with results obtained from the Brute Force and standard GA methods.展开更多
