In recent years, renewable and sustainable energy sources have attracted the attention of
various investors and stakeholders, such as energy sector agents and even consumers. It is …

Abstract The European Directive regarding the promotion of energy from renewable sources
(Directive 2009/28 EC) specifies separate national targets for each member state of the EU …

Market and network integration of distributed energy resources can be facilitated by their
coordination within a virtual power plant (VPP). However, VPP operation subject to network …

Optimally dispatching photovoltaic (PV) inverters is an efficient way to avoid overvoltage in
active distribution networks, which may occur in the case of the PV generation surplus load …

This paper focuses on distribution systems featuring renewable energy sources (RESs) and
energy storage systems, and presents an AC optimal power flow (OPF) approach to optimize …

Electric power systems are taking drastic advances in deployment of information and
communication technologies; numerous new measurement devices are installed in forms of …

This paper develops a power management scheme that jointly optimizes the real power
consumption of programmable loads and reactive power outputs of photovoltaic (PV) …

This work proposes a new simplified five-parameter estimation method for a single-diode
model of photovoltaic panels. The method, based on an iterative algorithm, is able to …

This paper proposes an estimation method to identify the electrical model parameters of
photovoltaic (PV) modules and makes a comparison with other methods already popular in …

This paper explores solutions to linearized power-flow equations with bus-voltage phasors
represented in rectangular coordinates. The key idea is to solve for complex-valued …
