Increasing concerns about climate change and global pollution rates emphasized the importance of renewable energy resources. Rising pressure to utilize green energy alternatives requires some changes and rearrangements on the available alternative current (AC) oriented electric power system. Moreover, electric charging stations, renewable and distributed electricity sources like battery storage systems, solar power plants use direct current (DC) and additional power conversion is needed for their integration into the current distribution network. This explains why hybrid AC/DC smart grid concepts are developed. Although there are various load flow analysis approaches applied on hybrid AC/DC transmission systems, not much work is proposed at the distribution system level. The scope of the thesis is to develop an integrated load flow approach for AC/DC distribution networks, which include a variety of power electronic devices as well as distributed energy sources. In the method presented, AC and DC power flow equations are combined and solved using Newton-Raphson algorithm with a modified Jacobian matrix. Commonly used DC/DC converters and voltage source converters present in the grid are represented with their respective models. This load flow calculation method is implemented on MATLAB and simulations are performed for different distribution test systems, which utilize a variety of converter models and load profiles. Solution of the proposed load flow algorithm has shown consistency with the results obtained by other approaches.

Smart grid applications and technologies in distribution systems
Pehlivanoğlu Gürbüz, Kübra; Sevaioğlu, Osman; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019)
Smart grid control purposes to rise the percentage of energy production through alternative energy sources like renewable resources and to make consumers to be comprehended in grid actively, is realising importance day by day. Further to that it can help us employment opportunities and improving growth in addition to keep the power on at minimum cost to prosumers, while the participation is elucidated and enabled new products, service and markets, accommodating all generation and storage options and provide...
Capacity determination of pumped storage projects using market electricity prices
Çetinkaya, Semih; Tiğrek, Şahnaz; Department of Civil Engineering (2014)
Renewable and clean energy is gaining more importance after the nuclear disasters with increasing awareness of depletion of fossil fuels, concerns about the global warming and increasing energy demand. However, intermittency of renewable resources is the biggest challenge in the restructuring world energy market. Energy has to be stored against sudden changes in the production and consumption. In order to keep the continuity of the energy supply, pumped storage can be a remedy. Therefore, pumped storage pro...
Optimum daily operation of a wind-hydro hybrid system
Ercan, Eray; Kentel Erdoğan, Elçin (2022-06-01)
© 2022 Elsevier LtdDue to the negative effects of fossil fuels on the environment and health, energy supply is shifting towards renewables. The integration of renewable energy systems is challenging due to the intermittent nature of renewables, however this can be mitigated through storage. Uncertainty in electricity prices in spot markets further complicates the operation of these systems. Pumped storage hydropower is currently the most viable form of large-scale energy storage, and operation of renewable ...
PV CELL TEMPERATURE ESTIMATION AND PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS BASED ON CHANGING ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
Youssef, Youssef Maged Mohamed Baligh; Canraş, Batunlu; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2022-8)
Climate change effects are on the rise due to greenhouse gas emission from the combustion of fossil fuels. The need to find alternative sustainable and renewable energy sources is of great importance. In Northern Cyprus, solar energy resources are abundant and must be utilized to provide energy security for the future and mitigate the effects of climate change. Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels are used to harness solar energy and produce electricity. The operating cell temperature of PV modules directly affec...
Feasibility study of multiple hydropower project: case study of Baltacı stream, Trabzon, Turkey
Aydın, Boran Ekin; Kentel Erdoğan, Elçin; Altınbilek, Doğan H.; Department of Civil Engineering (2010)
High greenhouse gas emissions increased the importance of renewable energy resources. Hydropower is among the most widely used type of renewable energy. Oppositions to big hydropower projects with reservoirs increased the use of small hydropower plants. Development of a small hydropower project is a challenging engineering task. Different software’s are developed and used to make initial estimations of energy generation and initial costs of the project. RETScreen Clean Energy Analysis Software which can be ...
