As new grid codes have been created to permit the integration of large scale photovoltaic power plants into the transmission system, the enhancement of the local control of the photovoltaic (PV) generators is necessary. ...

This research report is structured in 7 Chapters which pretend to guide the reader from a general point of view of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) and its applications, to a deep and better understanding of Inductive Power ...

Large electrical transmission networks are susceptible to undergo very large blackouts due to cascading failures, with a very large associated economical cost. In this work we propose segmenting large power grids using ...

The work proposes and analizes complex network-based controllers for HVDC transmission lines. Two different control approaches are studied: Distributed PID strategies, which take into account just local information of ...

This paper proposes a new device by combining features of an interline dual H-bridge current flow controller with the core idea of a hybrid HVdc circuit breaker for meshed HVdc grid application. The proposed device can ...

A control scheme is proposed in order to minimize the losses in multi-terminal HVDC systems for large offshore wind power plants. This approach is based on two cascaded control schemes. A low level droop control regulates ...

Worldwide electricity generation is featured by the growth of intermittent renewable energies. In this context, hydropower plays a fundamental role because it provides flexibility to the power grid and ensures its stability. ...

L’objecte del present informe és la descripció dels treballs duts a terme en l’Activitat 2 del projecte E-MAN-RES: models de simulació i càlcul per optimització i anàlisi de sensibilitat de la gestió de la demanda, per ...

An extension of Kay's method is presented for the joint estimation of Doppler and Doppler-rate of a sinusoid immersed in additive white gaussian noise. The algorithm is computationally efficient and circumvents the cumbersome ...
