  1. 1. Generation Reliability for Isolated Power Systems with Solar, Wind and Hydro Generation

    Author : Jimmy Ehnberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Generation reliability; Isolated power systems; Wind power; Solar power; Renewable energy; Stochastic modelling;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis deals with reliability issues for small isolated power systems. The focus is on power systems in remote areas based entirely on renewable energy sources. The sources investigated in this thesis are mainly solar and wind power; stochastic models for these energy sources are presented. READ MORE

  2. 2. Wide Range Isolated Power Converters

    Author : Muhammad Abu Bakar; Kent Bertilsson; Johan Sidén; Jorge Garcia; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : Power converters; Resonant converters; wide range converter; stable performance;

    Abstract : Power electronics technology is rapidly growing in most industrialapplications. There is an increasing demand for efficient and low profilepower converters in the industry like automotive, power grids, renewableenergy systems, electric rail systems, home appliances, and informationtechnology.

  3. 3. On soft-switching isolated AC/DC converters without auxiliary circuit

    Author : Staffan Norrga; Stefan Östlund; Rik De Doncker; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical power technology; voltage source converter; cycloconverter; isolated converter; medium frequency transformer; soft switching; modulation; commutation; wind power; electric traction; Elkraftteknik; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : The thesis is concerned with a class of power electronic converter systems that permit bidirectional AC/DC conversion with galvanic separation of the AC and DC sides by a transformer operating at elevated frequency. The systems consist of a capacitively snubbered voltage source converter and a cycloconverter, separated by the mentioned transformer. READ MORE

  4. 4. Main Circuits, Submodules, and Auxiliary Power Concepts for Converters in HVDC Grids

    Author : Stefanie Heinig; Hans-Peter Nee; Staffan Norrga; Kalle Ilves; Rainer Marquardt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ac–dc power conversion; energy storage; fault tolerance; HVDC converters; HVDC grid; isolated power supply; modular multilevel converter MMC ; power system faults; silicon carbide; submodules; voltage source converter VSC ; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In order to enable the massive introduction of renewable energies the need for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grids is anticipated. Large, globally interconnected HVDC networks will likely be the most cost-efficient means to balance electricity demand and available generation. READ MORE

  5. 5. Planning Models for Single Wire Earth Return Power Distribution Networks

    Author : Geofrey Bakkabulindi; Lennart Söder; Mikael Amelin; Peiyuan Chen; KTH; []
    Keywords : Rural electrification; power distribution planning; Single Wire Earth Return; distribution power flow; power system modeling; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Abstract : The high cost of grid extension to rural areas, often characterized by scattered communities with low load densities, requires the use of low cost electrification technologies to ensure economic viability. In Single Wire Earth Return (SWER) power distribution networks, the earth itself forms the current return path of the single phase system leading to significant cost savings on conductors, poles and poletop hardware compared to conventional systems.
