The solid-state transformer (SST) was conceived as a replacement for the conventional
power transformer, with both lower volume and weight. The smart transformer (ST) is an SST …

A major technical obstacle for rooftop photovoltaics (PV) integration into existing distribution
systems is the voltage rise due to the reverse power flow from the distributed PV sources …

Conservation voltage reduction (CVR) is widely adopted by utilities for peak demand
reduction and energy savings through reducing the voltage level of the electrical distribution …

The intent of the study detailed in this paper is to demonstrate the benefits of inverter var
control on a fast timescale to mitigate rapid and large voltage fluctuations due to the high …

Managing cyber security in an organization involves allocating the protection budget across
a spectrum of possible options. This requires assessing the benefits and the costs of these …

Conservation voltage reduction (CVR) uses Volt-VAR optimization (VVO) methods to reduce
customer power demand by controlling feeder's voltage control devices. The objective of this …

Motivated by the need to cope with rapid and random fluctuations of renewable generation,
we presents a model that augments the traditional Volt/VAR control through switched …

The possibility of leveraging the data provided by smart meters to understand the load
characteristics is studied in this paper. The loads are modeled as voltage-dependent …

To diminish damaging consequences of power system major disturbances, under frequency
load shedding (UFLS) plans are devised so as to prevent power networks from collapse …

This paper proposes an asynchronous distributed leader-follower control method to achieve
conservation voltage reduction (CVR) in three-phase unbalanced distribution systems by …
