We analyze how both traditional data center integration and dispatchable load integration affect power grid efficiency. We use detailed network models, parallel optimization solvers, and thousands of renewable generation scenarios to…
The integration of renewable sources poses challenges at the operational and economic levels of the power grid. In terms of keeping the balance between supply and demand, the usual scheme of supply following load may not be appropriate for…
Wind integration in power grids is very difficult, essentially because of the uncertain nature of wind speed. Forecasting errors on output from wind turbines may have costly consequences. For instance, power might be bought at highest price…
One of the most important challenges in the integration of renewable energy sources into the power grid lies in their `intermittent' nature. The power output of sources like wind and solar varies with time and location due to factors that…
Integrating a high share of electricity from non-dispatchable Renewable Energy Sources in a power supply system is a challenging task. One option considered in many studies dealing with prospective power systems is the installation of…
Energy storage has exhibited great potential in providing flexibility in power system to meet critical peak demand and thus reduce the overall generation cost, which in turn stabilizes the electricity prices. In this work, we exploit the…
Wind power, as a green energy resource, is growing rapidly worldwide, along with energy storage systems (ESSs) to mitigate its volatility. Sizing of wind power generation and ESSs has become an important problem to be addressed. Wake effect…
We investigate the problem of characterizing the economic value of energy storage capacity to a wind power producer (WPP) that sells its energy in a conventional two-settlement electricity market. The WPP can offer a forward contract to…
The high variability of renewable energy resources presents significant challenges to the operation of the electric power grid. Conventional generators can be used to mitigate this variability but are costly to operate and produce carbon…
Constant rise in energy consumption that comes with the population growth and introduction of new technologies has posed critical issues such as efficient energy management on the consumer side. That has elevated the importance of the use…
Intermittent renewable energies are increasingly dominating electricity grids and are forecasted to be the main force driving out fossil fuels from the grid in most major economies until 2040. However, grids based on intermittent renewables…
The microgrid concept offers high flexibility and resilience due to the possibility of switching between grid-connected and stand-alone operation. This renders microgrids an auspicious solution for rural areas and critical infrastructure.…
We consider a microgrid with random load realization, stochastic renewable energy production, and an energy storage unit. The grid controller provides the total net load trajectory that the microgrid should present to the main grid and the…
Wind farms can be regarded as complex systems that are, on the one hand, coupled to the nonlinear, stochastic characteristics of weather and, on the other hand, strongly influenced by supervisory control mechanisms. One crucial problem in…
This paper presents a method to determine the optimal location, energy capacity, and power rating of distributed battery energy storage systems at multiple voltage levels to accomplish grid control and reserve provision. We model…
The deployment of renewable energy technologies supposes the connection to the power grid of many new, distributed, and variable electricity production facilities. Among the investments deeply needed for a successful shift to clean energy,…
Wind speed is a powerful source of renewable energy, which can be used as an alternative to the non-renewable resources for production of electricity. Renewable sources are clean, infinite and do not impact the environment negatively during…
In an isolated power grid or a micro-grid with a small carbon footprint, the penetration of renewable energy is usually high. In such power grids, energy storage is important to guarantee an uninterrupted and stable power supply for end…
We consider a smart-grid connecting several agents, modeled as stochastic dynamical systems, who may be electricity consumers/producers. At each discrete time instant, which may represent a 15 minute interval, each agent may…
We study a smart grid with wind power and battery storage. Traditionally, day-ahead planning aims to balance demand and wind power, yet actual wind conditions often deviate from forecasts. Short-term flexibility in storage and generation…
