Power system operators are in search of proven solutions to improve the penetration levels
of distributed generators (DGs) in the grid while minimizing cost. This transition is driven …

Transformers are one of the more expensive pieces of equipment found in a distribution
network. The transformer's role has not changed over the last decades. With simple …

The global transport sector has a significant share of greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, plug-
in electric vehicles (PEVs) can play a vital role in the reduction of pollution. However, high …

Modern low-voltage distribution systems necessitate solar photovoltaic (PV) penetration.
One of the primary concerns with this grid-connected PV system is overloading due to …

Recently due to economic issues, asset management has taken more attention all over the
world. Distribution cables are one of the most expensive assets of the networks. The life of a …

There is a knowledge gap about how the load modeling of smart grid affects the accuracy of
the analytical reliability evaluation process and its calculation time. This paper tries to fill …

In recent years, the concept of “asset life extension” has become increasingly important to
safety critical industries including nuclear power, offshore oil and gas, petrochemical …

The increase of distributed generation units in low voltage distribution grids, stimulated by
different mechanisms (mostly economic), like the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive …

One of the major challenges in reliability evaluation of smart grid is the direct cyber‐power
interdependencies (DCPIs) impacts. The less effort has been devoted in the literature to …

While the electricity power industry in the world continues to grow, it also becomes more
traceable and smart with the developing technology. Naturally, the integration of these …
