An Improvement of Voltage Stability by Generator Bus Rescheduling
Abstract: This paper focuses on assessment and improvement of voltage stability by Georgeoschrin’s theorem using new evolutionary TLBO and PSO algorithm. In today’s environment, voltage stability maintained without sacrificing the power system parameters is really a herculean task. Generally, eigen value of reduced Jacobian matrix or Jacobian matrix of N-R base load flow analysis is well thought-out as voltage stability indices for weak bus identification. Here, the diagonal elements reduced Jacobian …

Voltage Stability Study based on New Evolutionary Algorithm
Abstract: This paper describes a PSO optimization algorithm for voltage stability study and its enhancement based on proximity and mechanism analysis. This theorem is implemented based on Gershgorin’s Circle Theorem. The control variables responsible for enhancing the voltage stability limit are generator bus voltages at PV buses, the taps of On-Load –Tap-Changing Transformer. (OLTC), change in reactive power etc. The objective function of proposed algorithm is to maximize the minimal diagonal …

Review of Grid Scale Energy Storage Systems
Abstract: Utilization of battery energy storage systems (BESS) is a must for smart grids. The reason being the fact that the current power distribution system of electric grids produces vast amount of energy for marinating a power quality; thereby leading to the significant detachment of amount of energy consumed and that of produced. Thus, enhanced modelling for such storage system is required for efficient energy utilization and its subsequent monitoring. This …

A Survey on Microgrid Power Control and Management Technique for Distributed Power Generator Units
Abstract: The micro grid could consist of several configurations of renewable and non-renewable energy sources like solar photo-voltaic cell (PV) array that varies with the utility because of the fluctuations in primary power generation unit. Such integration of renewable energy reserves within the micro grid may well be accustomed in order to supplement the gap caused by variability in the power generation. The control and power management methods for the distributed …
