Hydropower is a significant renewable energy type with a considerable share in energy generation worldwide. As with the other common means of energy generation, hydropower is critical for the reliability and quality of electricity supply. Maintaining the reliability and quality of supply enables meeting the electricity demand of the loads adequately and efficient use of the energy resources, in addition to decreasing the related financial and environmental losses. In this paper, we target at the problem of basin clustering which is crucial for hydrological and electrical analyses regarding hydropower plants. We propose an approach based on time-series data mining on generation data of a large number of run-of-river type plants as well as of a number of representative storage type plants, in order to cluster the river basins in Turkey and present the clustering results with the related discussions. Based on these results, a new basin map is proposed which will be beneficial for enhanced hydrological and electrical analyses on hydropower and thereby for the maintenance of supply reliability and quality.

Renewable Energy Sources: Current Perspectives and Future Prospects in Turkey Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2015-01-01) Renewable energy offers tremendous benefits for meeting global energy needs. Building on a foundation of hydropower, biomass combustion, and geothermal power pioneered during the industrial revolution, new forms of renewable energy began to be developed and commercialized, including solar, wind, and several forms of advanced bioenergy. Today, the global renewable power capacity has almost reached 200 GW and by 2030, the overall demand for energy resources is expected to almost double the current levels. And...
Reducing the cost of electric transmission and distribution systems with wind generation by means of energy storage and demand side management Bildirici, Mert; Keysan, Ozan; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018) Today, wind energy is the most popular renewable energy source and share of wind generation in overall electric power generation is expected to grow significantly for the next years. Considering this increase, energy balance problem will become harder to achieve due to unpredictable and varying nature of wind power. In order to handle with the negative impacts of wind power, it is essential to provide flexibility to power systems. This thesis focuses on the transmission system upgrade deferral for a hypothe...
Data mining-based power generation forecast at wind power plants Özkan, Mehmet Barış; Karagöz, Pınar; Department of Computer Engineering (2014) As a result of rapid depletion of non-renewable energy resources, the importance of the e efficient utilization of renewable energy sources has increased all over the world and in our country in recent years. Wind has an important role in renewable energy sources with its high potential. However, compared to other renewable energy sources, wind has a spatial and temporal discontinuity characteristic so there is a need for estimating and planning of wind power generation. Wind Power Plants (WPPs) inform thei...
Assessment of renewable energy based micro-grids for small communities Sadati, S.M. Sajed; Taylan, Onur; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2016-7) Deploying renewable energy systems to supply electricity faces many challenges related to cost and variability of the renewable resources. One possible solution to these challenges is to hybridize renewable energy systems with conventional power systems and include energy storage systems. In this study, the feasibility analysis of two cases for electricity generation systems as (i) photovoltaic (PV)-battery-pumped hydro system (PHS) and (ii) PV-wind-battery are presented as a Renewable Energy Micro-Gr...
Modeling electrical energy production in Northwestern Cyprus based on solar and wind measurements Yenen, Mehmet; Fahrioğlu, Murat; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2015-1) This thesis presents the solar and wind energy assessment and aims to model the link between measurement and electrical energy production from wind and solar resources in Northwestern Cyprus. The measurement systems were installed and the measurements from these systems were analyzed thoroughly to meet the expectations of this thesis. Existing mathematical models were used to calculate electrical energy production figures for wind and solar energy. A circuit based Photovoltaic (PV) model from the literature...
