    Abstract Electrical power systems are evolving at the generation, transmission, and distribution levels. At distribution level, small generating and storage units-the so-called distributed energy sources (DERs)-are being installed close to consumption sites. The expansion of DERs is empowering renewable energy source integration and, as a consequence, new actors are appearing in electrical systems. Among them, the prosumer is a game-changer; the fruit of the behavior transformation of the consumer who has not only the ability to consume power but also to produce it. Microgrids can be understood as DER installations that have the capability of both grid-connected and grid-isolated operation. During the last decades, there has been a significant deployment of microgrids (e.g., in countries like the United States, Switzerland, and Denmark) and a consequent increase in renewable energy generation. This is contributing to the decarbonization of electrical power systems. However, the variability and intermittency of renewable sources introduce uncertainty, which implies a more complex operation and control. Taking into account that existing and future planned microgrids are being/going to be interconnected to the current electrical network, challenges in terms of design, operation, and control at power system level need to be addressed, considering existing regulations

    Abstract In the face of climate change and resource scarcity, energy supply systems are on the verge of a major transformation, which mainly includes the introduction of new components and their integration into the existing infrastructures, new network configurations and reliable topologies, optimal design and novel operation schemes, and new incentives and business models. This revolution is affecting the current paradigm and demanding that energy systems be integrated into multi-carrier energy hubs. It is highly increasing the interactions between today's energy systems at various scales and future intelligent energy systems, which are able to incorporate an increasing amount renewable energy sources. This transformation is also accommodating active participation of end-users as responsive prosumers at different scales which in turn helps to reduce energy costs and to mitigate carbon footprints.This book covers the mentioned promising and dynamic areas of research and development, and reports on contributions in design, control and optimization of integrated energy systems. The contents of the book which are gathered based on the accepted articles in the special issue on Advances in Integrated Energy systems Design, Control and Optimization also covers a variety of topics, ranging from operation and control of small-scale electrical networks to the complex energy systems design and planning

    Abstract Earlier protection methods mainly focused on using communication channels to transmit trip signals between the protective devices (PDs), with no solutions provided in the case of communication failure. Therefore, this paper introduces a dual-layer protection system to ensure secure protection against fault events in the Distribution Systems (DSs), particularly in light of communication failures. The initial layer uses the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), the estimates of the amplitude voltages, and the zero-sequence grid voltage components, functioning as a fault sensor, to formulate an adaptive algorithm based on a Finite State Machine (FSM) for the detection and isolation of faults within the grid. This layer primarily relies on communication protocols for effective coordination. A Second-Order Generalized Integrator (SOGI) expedites the derivation of the estimated variables, ensuring fast detection with minimal computational overhead. The second layer uses the behavior of the positive- and negative-sequence components of the grid voltages during fault events to locate and isolate these faults. In the event that the first layer exposes a communication failure, the second layer will automatically be activated to ensure secure protection as it operates, using the local information of the Protective devices (PDs), without the need for communication channels to transmit trip signals between the PDs. The proposed protection system has been assessed using simulations with MATLAB/Simulink and providing experimental results considering an IEEE 9-bus standard radial system. The obtained results confirm the capability of the system for identifying and isolating different types of faults, varying conditions, and modifications to the grid configuration. The results show good behavior of the initial THD-based layer, with fast time responses ranging from 6 to 8.5 ms in all the examined scenarios. In contrast, the sequence-based layer exhibits a protection time response of approximately 150 ms, making it a viable backup option in the event of a communication failure.

    Abstract The integration of Distributed Generators (DGs) into distribution systems (DSs) leads to more reliable and efficient power delivery for customers. However, the possibility of bi-directional power flow creates new technical problems for protection schemes. This poses a threat to conventional strategies because the relay settings have to be adjusted depending on the network topology and operational mode. As a solution, it is important to develop novel fault protection techniques to ensure reliable protection and avoid unnecessary tripping. In this regard, Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) can be used as a key parameter for evaluating the grid's waveform quality during fault events. This paper presents a comparison between two DS protection strategies that employ THD levels, estimated amplitude voltages, and zero-sequence components as instantaneous indicators during the faults that function as a kind of fault sensor to detect, identify, and isolate faults. The first method uses a Multiple Second Order Generalized Integrator (MSOGI) to obtain the estimated variables, whereas the second method uses a single SOGI for the same purpose (SOGI-THD). Both methods rely on communication lines between protective devices (PDs) to facilitate coordinated protection. The effectiveness of these methods is assessed by using simulations in MATLAB/Simulink considering various factors such as different types of faults and DG penetrations, different fault resistances and fault locations in the proposed network. Moreover, the performance of these methods is compared with conventional overcurrent and differential protections. The results show that the SOGI-THD method is highly effective in detecting and isolating faults with a time interval of 6-8.5 ms using only three SOGIs while requiring only 447 processor cycles for execution. In comparison to other protection methods, the SOGI-THD method exhibits a faster response time and a lower computational burden. Furthermore, the SOGI-THD method is robust to harmonic distortion, as it considers pre-existing harmonic content before the fault and avoids interference with the fault detection process.

    Abstract The transition to sustainable power infrastructure necessitates integrating various renewable energy sources efficiently. Our study introduces the deterministic balanced method (DBM) for optimizing hybrid energy systems, with a particular focus on using hydrogen for energy balance. The DBM translates the sizing optimization problem into a deterministic one, significantly reducing the number of iterations compared to state-of-the-art methods. Comparative analysis with HOMER Pro demonstrates a strong alignment of results, with deviations limited to a 5% margin, confirming the precision of our method in sizing determinations. Utilizing solar and wind data, our research includes a case study of Cairo International Airport, applying the DBM to actual energy demands.

    Abstract The incorporation of electric vehicles (EVs) into residential/industrial microgrids (MGs) presents some limitations such as fluctuations in voltage, frequency, and lack of power supply. According to the literature, the control methods for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) in MGs are insufficiently coordinated for charging and regulation, limited by narrow charging control constraints, complex, and computationally demanding. Moreover, the power system stabilizer (PSS) is employed only in the generation side. To this regard, a PSS is proposed in this paper along with the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller, which is tuned adaptively using Harris hawks optimizer (HHO) for frequency, voltage, and power-sharing regulations through the parked EVs. The considered islanded MG is consisting of a diesel generator as a backup generation source, dealing with the intermittent nature of the solar photovoltaic (PV) plant and residential load. It also includes an EV aggregator. In case of partial shading of the solar PV farm and triggering the load demand, the proposed control strategy provides a complementary signal to promote short response time during transients, boost the transient stability performance, and offer damping characteristics adequate for V2G regulation with the islanded residential MG. To examine the efficacy of the proposed scheme, a detailed simulation model using Matlab/Simulink was built. The final findings show that the proposed direct adaptive PID-PSS controller gives significantly enhanced voltage and frequency with spinning reserve compared to the conventional PI-controller both considering the inclusion of V2G on the MG regulation side and conventional controller without V2G and PSS on the regulation side. Also, it can provide power flow in a bi-directional way during the partial shading contingency that the residential MG may experience within 24 hr.

    Abstract Accurate load power sharing and bus voltage regulation are two critical control objectives for ensuring power quality and reliable operation of DC microgrids. Although regulating the DC Bus voltage can be achieved by adopting an external secondary control loop, inaccurate load power/current sharing among converters is a prominent issue due to feeder resistances mismatch. This can lead to undesired overloading of converters, triggering over-current protection relays, and potentially resulting in cascading failure of the whole system. Existing literature uses virtual resistance techniques to improve the power sharing accuracy; however, so far, no explicit relation between the values of the virtual resistances and the feeder resistances mismatch has been formulated, opening the possibility to enhance power sharing even further. Therefore, this paper proposes an accurate power sharing strategy in which the virtual resistances are chosen to account for the feeder resistances mismatch. The proposed technique relies on the optimal tuning of the virtual resistance assigned to the local controller of each converter. An online estimation algorithm of the physical feeder resistances, required for virtual resistance tuning, is embedded into the control loop of each converter. Thus, prior information about the feeder resistances in the design stage is not required. The proposed approach is validated through simulation and experimental results from a Hardware-in-the-Loop setup of a typical islanded DC microgrid. The results demonstrate the approach merits, achieving accurate power sharing among converters and ensuring robust operation, even in scenarios involving communication failures.

    Abstract This work analyzes the stability and performance of an offshore solar-concentrated ocean thermal energy conversion system (SC-OTEC) tied to an onshore AC grid. The OTEC is a system where electricity is generated using small temperature differences between the warm surface and deep cold ocean water. Existing control methods for SC-OTEC systems lack coordination, hindering dynamic stability and effective damping for the synchronous generator (SG). These methods struggle to quickly adapt to sudden disturbances and lack the capability to adequately reject or compensate for such disturbances due to complex control constraints and computational demands. To this regard, a control strategy combining sliding mode control (SMC) and a power system stabilizer (PSS) to improve the SC-OTEC dynamic stability and damping features for the SG. Moreover, an auxiliary secondary automatic voltage regulator is assembled with a non-linear exciter system to provide damping features. The proposed PID-PSS and secondary AVR controller gains are adaptively tuned using a modified whale optimization algorithm with the balloon effect modulation. The studied SC-OTEC is tested through MATLAB/Simulink under a severe 3ϕ short-circuit fault, solar radiation variations, and a change in surface seawater temperature as well as changes in local loads. The final findings approved that the proposed control strategy preserves a strong performance and can mimic effectively the proposed SC-OTEC damping compared to the conventional system.

    Abstract The trend toward Microgrids (MGs) is significantly increasing by employing Distributed Generators (DGs) which leads to new challenges, especially in the fault detection. This paper proposes an algorithm based on the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the grid voltages to detect the events of faults in MGs. The algorithm uses the THD together with the estimate amplitude voltages and the zero-sequence component for the detection and identification of the faults. The performance is evaluated by using MATLAB/Simulink simulations to validate the capability for detecting different fault types in the least possible time.
