Due to the mismatch between the load demand and the intermittent solar energy, a stand-alone photovoltaic-hydrogen system and an optimal control scheme are designed to maintain the high system efficiency.

Several factors must be considered before adopting a full-phase power generation system based on renewable energy sources. Long-term necessary data (for one year if possible) should be collected before making any decisions concerning implementation of such a systems. To accurately assess the...

In a high wind penetration scenario in electricity production, the availability of models for synthetically generating hourly wind speed data becomes increasingly important for both sizing and modeling integrated renewable systems. A methodology for generating hourly wind speed time series is...

Expectation formation plays a principal role in economic systems. We examine and revise the standard rational expectations (RE) model, generally taken as the best paradigm for expectations modelling, and suggest a new method to model rational expectations. Conventional conditions that assert the...

According to the topological structure of wind-storage-load complementation microgrids, this paper proposes a method for energy coordinative optimization which focuses on improvement of the economic benefits of microgrids in the prediction framework. First of all, the external characteristic...

Предложен метод упреждающего управления сложными технологическими комплексами по критериям энергетической эф¬фек¬тивности на основе моделей обратной...

This paper investigates the effects of weather forecast uncertainty on the performance of a concept for predictive control of building systems operation. The concept uses a computational physically-based building model and weather forecasts to predict future heating or cooling requirement. This...

The potential of controlling wave energy converters, (WEC), by deterministic prediction of large damaging waves is introduced and shown to offer very substantial increases in the annual average power output of such devices. Results obtained for idealised WEC models show that the potential exists...

We consider LiDAR-enabled model-based collective pitch and torque controllers that can be implemented onboard a wind turbine in a hard real-time environment, in the sense that they can be computed efficiently on standard computer hardware and that require a fixed deterministic number of...

This paper presents fuzzy model-based design for control and synchronization of chaotic systems. In this framework, the chaotic systems are exactly reproduced based on a Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model. Then the fuzzy controllers for control and synchronization are designed using the...
