The development and implementation of electric vehicles have significantly increased and
are profoundly reshaping the automotive sector. However, long charging times, limited …

This paper presents the genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO)
based frequency regulation for a wind‐based microgrid (MG) using reactive power balance …

Reactive power compensations are more prominent and challenging especially with grid
tied wind generating systems because IEEE standards such as 1159: 1995, 1250: 2011 …

Microgrids are facing several operational and control issues while integrating with the grid.
To deal with it, STATCOM, as one of the emerging power converter circuits, is connected …

Lightning strokes are considered the most common passively effective cause on the
photovoltaic (PV) power plants compared to the other internal faults. In this paper, a 1 MW …

This paper addresses a multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorithm to
locate the best position at which a single distributed generator (DG) with optimum voltage …

Lightning protection analysis for hybrid PV-wind energy systems have suffered from lack of
coverage in the study of suitability of lightning protection standards for them. The paper aims …

To enable more wide-scale exploitation of renewable energy sources (RESs), distributed
generations (DGs) as in microgrids have gained prominence recently. This study describes …

The use of voltage source multilevel inverters (VS-MLIs) has grown enormously over the last
decade, and it is expected that these inverters will be deployed in future power grids (smart …

Abstract Converters in AC-DC-AC traction drive system introduce a wide range of high-
frequency harmonics. When the high-frequency harmonics contain contents at around the …
