    Transformation of Microgrid to Virtual Power Plant – A Comprehensive Review
    (Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2019-02-28) Yavuz, Levent; Onen, Ahmet; Muyeen, S. M.; Kamwa, Innocent
    To provide continuity of balancing demand and generation, renewable sources will be more active than today in near future due to the tendency of massive investment on renewable energy sources (RESs) by countries. However, due to the uncertain and intermittent nature of RESs, RESs would create problems on power system operations such as power quality, efficiency, stability and reliability. Owing to having problems with RESs integration, virtual power plant (VPP) has introduced to make this integration smooth without compromising the grid stability and reliability along with offering many other techno-economic benefits. This study reviews structures, types, architecture and operations of VPP along with the status of present implementations worldwide. The types of VPP are introduced in details with the optimisation algorithm used with each type. In addition, VPP is linked with the most of the components in power systems such as distributed generation, active prosumers, transmission system operator and distribution system operator, grid services such as fault ride through, reactive power control as well as with the help of technology such as communications, control and optimisations. This study gives a comprehensive outline of transforming microgrid to VPP that is useful for researchers, consumers, prosumers and utility operators.

    Provision of Ancillary Services by a Smart Microgrid: An OPF Approach
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Martinez-Ramos, J. L.; Marcolini, Alejandro Marano; García-López, Francisco De Paula; Almagro-Yravedra, Fernando; Onen, Ahmet; Yoldaş, Yeliz; Fragale, Nunziatina; Marano-Marcolini, Alejandro
    Ancillary services are all services required by the transmission (TSO) or distribution system operator (DSO) to maintain the integrity and stability of the transmission or distribution system as well as the power quality. Ancillary services that can be provided by a microgrid in grid-connected operation are frequency control support, voltage control support, congestion management, reduction of grid losses, and improvement of power quality. This paper presents the optimization problems used in the 3DMicroGrid project to determine the set-points of the different resources present in the microgrid to provide ancillary services to the power system in grid-connected operation: Frequency control, voltage control and load curtailment. Results of the optimization of the pilot microgrid used in 3DMicroGrid are presented. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Cloud Induced PV Impact on Voltage Profiles for Real Microgrids
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Kocer, Mustafa Cagatay; Yoldaş, Yeliz; Gören, Selçuk; Onen, Ahmet; Alan, İrfan; Al-Agtash, Salem Y.; Tzovaras, Dimitrios K.; Borg, Nicholas
    Integration of renewable energy sources (RESs) into power systems has been a popular topic for a long time. Due to government policies and incentives, it will be more popular in the future since it is a free and environment-friendly nature. Besides its advantages, photovoltaic (PV) generation causes some serious problems to the grid. Since PV generation directly depends on the solar irradiance, cloud movements can cause sudden changes on the output of PV power and this results in some power issues in the system such as voltage violations, reverse power flow, voltage fluctuations. These types of issues complicate to maintain voltage within compulsory levels at customer sides. Thus, cloud-induced transients in PV power are seen as a potential handicap for the future expansion of renewable energy resources. This study investigates effects of instantaneous changes in PV power on the customer side voltage levels. Daily PV power output and voltage profiles were simulated using a real-world microgrid design that will be implemented in the Malta College of Arts Science and Technology (MCAST) Campus. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Artificial Neural Networks Based Harmonics Estimation for Real University Microgrids Using Hourly Solar Irradiation and Temperature Data
    (Elsevier, 2023-03) Yarar, Nurcan; Yagci, Mustafa; Bahceci, Serkan; Onen, Ahmet; Ustun, Taha Selim
    The need for renewable energy is increasing day by day due to different factors such as increasing energy demand, environmental considerations as well as the will to decrease the share of fossil fuel-based generation. Due to their relative low-cost and ease of installation, PV systems are leading the way for renewable energy deployments around the globe. However, there are meticulous studies that need to be undertaken for realization of such projects. Studying local weather and load patterns for proper panel sizing or considering grid components to determine cable and transformer sizing can be named as some examples for pre-installation studies. In addition to these, post-installation impact studies, e.g. accurate harmonic analysis contribution, is more important to ensure safe and secure operation of the overall system. These steps need to be taken for all PV installation projects. The aim of this study is to show a step-by-step analysis of the effect of a real PV system on the network and to improve the prediction and give a new perspective to the harmonic estimation by using the hourly temperature and radiation data together. At the first phase of the study, a detail real-time 250 kW PV system was modeled for real university campus, and then harmonic estimation based on hourly solar irradiation and hourly temperature was performed with artificial neural networks (ANN) and nonlinear autoregressive exogenous (NARX). The accuracy of the prediction made with ANN was 0.98, and the accuracy of the prediction made with NARX was 0.96.Researchers in PV sizing and control field as well as engineers in power quality area would find these findings beneficial and useful. Use of ANNs and NARX for such analysis indicates the trend in this field that can be targeted by new research projects.
