This paper discusses the integration of solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage (BES) units for reducing energy loss and enhancing voltage stability. Here, each nondispatchable PV unit is converted into a dispatchable source with a combination of PV and BES units. New multiobjective...

The high penetration of distributed generation (DG) is a new challenge for traditional distribution systems. Power injections from DG units change network power flows, thereby influencing system losses and voltage stability. This paper presents a new multiobjective index (IMO)-based analytical...

Distributed Generations (DGs) can be an efficient solution to today’s power system environmental and economical challenges. Installing DGs influences power system stability and losses. In this paper, a method is presented for locating and sizing of DGs to enhance voltage stability and to...

Present paper reports the survey on existing research literatures in connection with various energy management issues/benefits of a microgrid arising due to strategic deployment of its DERs. Survey on regulatory issues includes various barriers, incentives, standards (IEEE 1547, UL-1741, etc.),...

We carry out a Monte-Carlo simulation of the long-term behaviour of a standard derivatives portfolio to analyse the performance of stop-loss strategies in terms of loss reductions. We observe that the more correlated the underlyings, the earlier the stop-loss activation for every acceptable...

Today's global market demands top priority on outstanding quality, better reliability and on-time delivery of products using effective supply chain executions to stay against fierce competition. Hence, it is essential to identify and address the various issues in supply chain executions in a...

Taking a broad overview, this paper explores recent evidence on flood forecasting, warning communication and public warning response in Europe between 1995 and 2010. Key flood warning chain deficiencies are identified together with the effect these deficiencies have on flood warning...

Manufacturing organisations are expected to produce their products with prompt delivery using better supply chain activities. Starting from the procurement of raw materials to the delivery of final products, there are inevitable losses occurring due to major time delays in supply chain...
