This paper proposes a methodology for sitting and sizing wind distributed generators (WDGs). These generators are characterised by an uncertain active power production due to the random behaviour of the wind speed. The uncertain generation directly impacts the network total generation cost and...

Algorithms are used to optimize both single and multi-objective system limits. This research aimed to detect the optimal location and size of the DGs, which can significantly minimize power loss and improve the stability of the voltage. The research uses binary particle swarm optimization and...

Transmission networks have some constraints that should be addressed in order to ensure sufficient control to maintain the security level of a power system while maximising market efficiency. The most obvious drawback of transmission constraints is a congestion problem that becomes an obstacle...

Turkey has stipulated that renewable energy sources (RES) will have at least 30% share in electricity generation by 2023. To reach this target, a renewable energy promotion law (Law No. 5346) was enacted in 2005 and later amended in 2011. Through Law No. 5346, Turkey has launched a feed-in...

Bidding competition is one of the main transaction approaches in a deregulated electricity market. Locational marginal prices (LMPs) resulting from bidding competition and system operation conditions indicate electricity values at a node or in an area. The LMP reveals important information for...

Large-scale wind power transmission presents the power system with several challenges. The determination of the transmission tariff and the cost-sharing issue are potential obstacles which may influence the development of wind power. This paper analyses the incremental cost to the power system...

The post-Kyoto negotiations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) have produced significant results such as the Bali Roadmap, Copenhagen Accord and Cancun Agreement, and clarified parties' plans for long-term emissions mitigation. This paper presents the...
