A new protection scheme based on applying a combination of wavelet multi-resolution singular spectrum entropy and support vector machine is proposed to identify different types of grid faults in a three-phase grid-tied photovoltaic system. In this technique, discrete wavelet transform with multi-resolution singular spectrum entropy is utilized to extract the unique features of three-phase voltage signals at the point of common coupling. The three-phase voltage signals are decomposed to provide detail and approximation coefficients of wavelet transform. Then, various features between different types of grid faults can be extracted by a combination of multi resolution analysis and spectrum analysis with entropy as the output. The constructed features vector is utilized as input data of a support vector machine classifier to identify and classify various types of faults. The results illustrate that the proposed intelligent technique not only recognizes different types of grid faults correctly, but also performs quickly in identifying grid faults in a grid-connected photovoltaic system. Apart from this, a graphical investigation is executed to observe the effects of different types of grid faults in photovoltaic (PV) operation which highlight the necessity of intelligent protection methods to protect PV systems.

Summary: In this paper, a new optimal load shedding method using a grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA) is proposed for the stability of islanded power systems with distributed energy resources (DER). The effectiveness of the method is evaluated through a comprehensive study on an IEEE 33-bus system with four DG units under different scenarios. The results show that the proposed GOA-based load shedding method outperforms other optimization approaches in terms of load curtailment and voltage stability.

Application of ANFIS and ANN for Partial Discharge Localization in Oil Through Acoustic Emission

Ahmad Hafiz Mohd Hashim, Norhafiz Azis, Jasronita Jasni, Mohd Amran Mohd Radzi, Masahiro Kozako, Mohamad Kamarol Mohd Jamil, Zaini Yaakub

Summary: This article examines the acoustic partial discharge (PD) localization in oil using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and artificial neural network (ANN) approaches. Impedance matching circuit (IMC) is used to measure the electrical PD, while acoustic PD is obtained through an acoustic emission (AE) sensor and preamplifier gain unit. The location of the PD is evaluated by utilizing 112 coordinates for each AE sensor. Data is preprocessed using moving average (MA) and analyzed using time of arrival (TOA), ANFIS, and ANN. The distance between PD and AE sensor is calculated based on TOA for PD localization. ANFIS has a higher accuracy in predicting PD source compared to ANN, based on root mean square error (RMSE) and coefficient of determination ( ${R}<^>{{2}}{)}$). ANN has a faster computation time of 1.75 s for PD localization based on AE PD signals.

Mohamad Soleheen Mohd Tamam, Muhammad Murtadha Othman, Kamrul Hasan, Masoud Ahmadipour

Summary: Major power quality issues such as voltage harmonic and swell/sag can be mitigated by installing the Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR), which injects the required voltage to sustain power quality. This study integrates a DVR, a solar PV-Battery, and a supercapacitor (SCAP) to improve power quality and meet grid power demand. The suggested system effectively reduces power quality disruptions by compensating for voltage sag and swell without interrupting the grid, using solar energy and a high-power density supercapacitor.

Adibah Binti Mashudi, Muhammad Murtadha Othman, Masoud Ahmadipour, Kamrul Hasan

Summary: This project introduces generation expansion planning considering the reliability of grid-connected PV Generator and Wind turbine. The Markov model is used to calculate the forced outage rate (FOR) of PV generator and Wind turbine with embedded data. Then, the loss of load expectation (LOLE) is obtained using a 24-bus system and a variant number of the population comprising kW sizing of PV Generator and Wind turbine. The EP technique with Roulette wheel and crossover is applied for optimization of expansion planning to enhance the system reliability of PV Generator and Wind turbine. The generation expansion planning results in the best sizing of PV Generator and Wind turbine with LOLE less than 2.4, and ultimately achieves the objective function of the lowest installation cost.

A Unified Linear Self-Regulating Method for Active/Reactive Sustainable Energy Management System in Fuel-Cell Connected Utility Network

Kamrul Hasan, Muhammad Murtadha Othman, Sheikh Tanzim Meraj, Masoud Ahmadipour, M. S. Hossain Lipu, Mohsen Gitizadeh

Summary: In fuel-cell-connected utility networks, reactive power generated by electrical loads attached to the power network results in wasted energy, increased electricity demand, system overload, and higher utility costs. This is mainly caused by non-linear loads and voltage dips. Existing solutions fail to effectively remove harmonics and compensate for reactive power. To address this, a novel self-regulating active/reactive sustainable energy management system (SEM) is proposed, which can adjust the power factor, compensate for power outages and reactive power, and remove harmonics from the electricity network. The proposed SEM can effectively decrease harmonics and maintain the power factor near unity under various load circumstances.
