SMART GRIDS AND MICROGRIDS

Written and edited by a team of experts in the field, this is the most comprehensive and up-to-date study of smart grids and microgrids for engineers, scientists, students, and other professionals.

The power supply is one of the most important issues of our time. In every country, all over the world, from refrigerators to coffee makers to heating and cooling, almost everyone in the world needs to have access to power. As the global demand rises, new methods of delivering power, such as smart grids and microgrids, have, out of necessity or choice, been developed and researched.

In this book, modern and advanced concepts of both microgrid and smart grid technology are introduced. Beginning from the brief fundamental concepts of microgrids and its various constituents this team of experts discusses different architectures, control issues, communication challenges, measurement, stability, power quality and mitigation, protection, and power electronic aspects of the microgrid system. Through this book, tools and techniques needed to design both microgrids and smart grids are discussed.

Recent and developing topics like smart meter impact, remote data monitoring, communication protocols, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, big data, IoT, and many others are covered. Furthermore, this new volume also covers simulation and stability analysis tools pertaining to microgrids and smart grids. Throughout the book, detailed examples of microgrid and smart grid design and development strategies are provided, based on different constraints and requirements. Case studies, numerical models, and design examples are also included. Whether for the veteran engineer or student, this is a must-have volume for any library.

Audience: Engineers, scientists, industry professionals, students, and other lay people involved in the business of smart grids and microgrids

Abstract

The ampleness and non-polluting nature of power generation from solar photovoltaic (SPV) is used worldwide to meet the ever-increasing load demand.In order to operate SPV efficiently, an accurate modeling and control is required prior to the installation. Therefore, this chapter presents the Single Diode Model(SDM) of SPV module through which five parameters such as series resistance (R_se), shunt resistance (R_sh), diode ideality factor (A), light generated current (I_LG), diode reverse saturation current (I_sat) are determined for extracting the maximum power from PV panel. Initially, this work describes the mathematical model of SPV in terms of the above specified unknown parameters. Using these modeling equations, the parameters are determined under standard test condition (STC). The manipulated form of SPV modeling equations under dynamic environmental condition are portrayed which are used for determining the parameters of SDM. From these parameters, the voltage and current at maximum power point (MPP) are deduced under varying environmental conditions. This study presents the numerical iterative techniques like Gauss-Seidel (GS) and Newton Raphson (NR) approach to solve the non-linear transcendental equations describing the behavior of SPV. The effectiveness of the presented method is tested with various SPV modules such as KD245GX, U5-80, and Shell SP70. The comparative analysis of r...
