Transient Analysis of self excited Induction generator with ELC
Abstract: — Fast depletion of fossil fuels has drawn attention towards the use of nonconventional energy sources like wind, biomass, tidal/wave, and small hydro potential. In remote locations, harnessing of electrical energy from such local resources can be cheaper and easier compared to grid connection, which involves long transmission lines and associated losses. A micro-hydro system using natural hydro potential with minimal civil works is a strong candidate in this race. …

Machine Learning and Big Data in Smart Grid Renewable Energy Systems: Trends and Challenges
Abstract: This paper reviews eight research studies on smart grids and their role in mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which have become a critical concern worldwide. Renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydro produce minimal or no greenhouse gases and, unlike fossil fuels, are abundant, sustainable, and ensure a long-term energy supply. Large volumes of data have been produced by recent technical developments and thorough historical data collection. Efficient …

Analysis of Savonius Wind Turbine for Air Striking At Different Angles
Abstract: The global small wind turbine (SWT) market has been on the upswing in the last five years. The main drivers of this growth are the demand-supply gap in energy, increasing fossil fuel prices, improved small wind turbine technology and the diverse application to which it can be put to both ‘grid-tied’ and ‘stand-alone’ system. The market for SWT technology is growing in India also, and may require market drivers like …

Multifunctional Shunt Hybrid Power Filter and Thyristor Controlled Reactor for Distributed Generation Integration and Power Quality Improvement
Abstract: This project presents a multifunctional PV fed SHPF-TCR compensator for achieving maximum benefits from these grid-interfacing inverters. The inverter is controlled to perform as a multi-function device by incorporating active power filter functionality. An inverter can be used as power converter to insert the power created from RES to the grid, and shunt APF to reimburse load current harmonics. A SHPF-TCR compensator of a TCR and a SHPF has been …

Techno-Economic Analysis of Packed Bed Type Thermal Batteries for Surplus Renewable Energy Storage
Abstract: Low carbon electricity from renewables will form the bed rock of the energy transition necessary for climate change mitigation. However, variable renewable generators suffer from intermittency and variability – there can be large surplus power available at times which cannot be dispatched to the grid. At many times, the practice is to curtail surplus renewable output, which is wasteful and not economic. There are also phases when generation is not …
