To mitigate the vulnerability of distribution grids to severe weather events, some electric utilities use preemptive de-energization as the primary line of defense, causing significant power outages. In such instances, networked microgrids…
Distributed renewable energy resources have attracted significant attention in recent years due to the falling cost of the renewable energy technology, extensive federal and state incentives, and the application in improving load-point…
As natural disasters bring about power outage and financial losses, network resiliency is an important challenge for distribution network operators (DNOs). On the other side, power loss reduction during normal operating condition is a major…
Improving distribution grid reliability is a major challenge for planning and operation of distribution systems having a high share of distributed generators (DGs). The rise of DGs share can lead to unplanned contingencies while on the…
In this paper, a flexibility-oriented microgrid optimal scheduling model is proposed to mitigate distribution network net load variability caused by large penetration distributed solar generation. The distributed solar generation…
The increasing frequency of extreme weather events has posed significant risks to the operation of power grids. During long-duration extreme weather events, microgrid formation (MF) is an essential solution to enhance the resilience of the…
The aim of distribution networks is to meet their local area power demand with maximum reliability. As the electricity consumption tends to increase every year, limited line thermal capacity can lead to network congestion. Continuous…
As the share of Distributed energy resources (DER) in the low voltage distribution network (DN) is expected to rise, a higher and more variable electric load and generation could stress the DNs, leading to increased congestion and power…
Distribution system integrated community microgrids (CMGs) can restore loads during extended outages. The CMG is challenged with limited resource availability, absence of a robust grid-support, and demand-supply uncertainty. To address…
In spite of all advantages of solar energy, its deployment will significantly change the typical electric load profile, thus necessitating a change in traditional distribution grid management practices. In particular, the net load ramping,…
Network reconfiguration (NR) has recently received significant attention due to its potential to improve grid resilience by realizing self-healing microgrids (MGs). This paper proposes a new strategy for the real-time frequency regulation…
As an efficient way to integrate multiple distributed energy resources and the user side, a microgrid is mainly faced with the problems of small-scale volatility, uncertainty, intermittency and demand-side uncertainty of DERs. The…
The integration of intermittent renewable energy sources into distribution networks introduces significant uncertainties and fluctuations, challenging their operational security, stability, and efficiency. This paper considers robust…
Modern society is critically dependent on the services provided by engineered infrastructure networks. When natural disasters (e.g. Hurricane Sandy) occur, the ability of these networks to provide service is often degraded because of…
The issue of voltage variations caused by integration of renewables has been addressed in this paper through distributed management of Microgrids (MGs). The distribution network (DN) takes the network losses and voltage quality as…
High penetration from volatile renewable energy resources in the grid and the varying nature of loads raise the need for frequent line switching to ensure the efficient operation of electrical distribution networks. Operators must ensure…
The growing penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) is leading to continually changing operating conditions, which need to be managed efficiently by distribution grid operators. The intermittent nature of DERs such as solar…
Data center operators are typically faced with three significant problems when running their data centers, i.e., rising electricity bills, growing carbon footprints and unexpected power outages. To mitigate these issues, running data…
Motivated by the increasing need to hedge against load and generation uncertainty in the operation of power grids, we propose flexibility maximization during operation. We consider flexibility explicitly as the amount of uncertainty that…
Quantifying the potential benefits of microgrids in the design phase can support the transition of passive distribution networks into microgrids. At current, reliability and resilience are the main drivers for this transition. Therefore,…
