Several geospatial factors influence the suitability of national power grid expansion, especially in remote areas. Since previous studies have neither explicitly examined the level of influence of these factors nor provided a clear spatial representation of their impact, this paper examines how...

Algeria has large territory which is around 2,382 million km with an average solar power of 2650 kWh/m2/year on more than 80 % of the total surface of country. Back in 2015, the Algerian government has adopted a program for electricity production with an objective to insert 13GW of photovoltaic...

The renewable energy based smart grid present a stable power supply system with low carbon emissions. The adaptability of work in smart grid-related approaches allows microgrids to load reliably. This research proposes a self-healing method with a large smart grid in different purpose. The...

Traditional electrical grid as the largest and most complex industry in the world is currently under fundamental development. According to the IEEE Std1547.4, large distribution systems can be clustered into a number of micro-grids (MGs) to facilitate the control and operation infrastructure in...

This article presents a non-conventional design approach of high order passive filters incorporated with distributed energy grid integration systems based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) as one of multi-objective evolutionary search algorithms. Two topologies of passive grid filters (third...

Grid integration remains one of the key challenges related to the worldwide expansion of distributed renewable energy systems. This paper presents innovative measures for increasing the hosting capacity of distribution grids with a focus on the medium-voltage grid, based on representative...
