Summary: A multi-period reactive coordinated optimal operation model for distributed wind generation (DWG) in the distribution network is established in this study. By considering the active-reactive power coordination characteristics of wind turbines and integrating the operating strategy of reactive power resources, the efficiency of power flow calculation for DWG penetrated distribution network is significantly improved. The simulation results show that the integration of reactive power resources can further promote the consumption of DWG and improve the operating profits of the distribution network.

Summary: The growth in LNG trade in the past two decades is attributed to stricter environmental policies and rising global temperatures. The utilization of LNG cryogenic energy, especially in power generation systems, has received significant attention. This review explores various optimization techniques for integrated power generation cycles, including working fluid, parametric, and superstructure-based optimizations. Combined cycles demonstrate higher efficiency than standalone cycles, and advanced exergetic analysis is crucial for better multi-objective optimization. The integration of power cycles with desalination units becomes feasible due to the use of LNG cryogenic energy as a cooling medium.

Summary: In order to achieve widely recognised carbon neutrality targets, metropolitan regions around the world have implemented policies to promote sustainable energy generation and use. However, there is a gap in formulating and evaluating these policies in a timely manner. We have developed a data-driven platform that uses artificial neural networks and technology diffusion models to predict and evaluate energy transition policies. Through case studies in Singapore, London, and California, we demonstrate the platform's ability to forecast renewable energy generation, capacity, and formulate future policy scenarios. We recommend globally applying this methodology to future sustainable energy transition in smart regions.

Summary: The impacts of climate change have led to government commitments to implement policies to limit rising temperatures. One strategy is to phase out internal combustion engines in favor of electric vehicles, which various transportation services, including FREE NOW, have adopted. This study analyzes the composition of FREE NOW's taxi fleet in Dublin in 2021 and examines the emissions reduction achievable by fully electrifying the fleet. Different scenarios involving different vehicle powertrain and fuel configurations were modeled using an emissions tool. Results show a 77% decrease in carbon dioxide emissions from complete electrification. Multi-criteria analysis was used to evaluate strengths and weaknesses of each scenario. The S5 scenario, consisting of electric vehicles only, scored highest on many criteria. S-5 was identified as the best option for the taxi fleet, followed closely by S-4 which involved upgrading to plug-in hybrid EVs. The study highlights the need for infrastructure improvements to achieve the all-EV target by 2030 in Dublin.

Summary: Synchrophasor-based wide-area monitoring system (WAMS) applications are crucial for real-time grid information acquisition. However, the dependence on sensor data and signal-processing software raises concerns about cybersecurity. To address this issue, a mixture density-based maximum likelihood (MDML) estimation method was proposed for detecting attack vectors, implemented using a track-level fusion (TLF)-based architecture with parallelized message passing interface (MPI) computing. The proposed method was demonstrated through an oscillation detection application in two test cases, showing accurate extraction of oscillatory parameters from contaminated measurements.

Summary: This research uses a Geographic Information System (GIS) based approach to identify suitable locations for community Electric Vehicle charging points. The charging infrastructure is categorized into three types - shared-residential, en-route, and destination charging - with selection criteria based on targeted end-users' characteristics. The study identifies 770 ideal locations in Dublin for initial charging infrastructure installation, and 3080 sites for later implementation to meet the charging requirements projected by the Dublin Local Authority for 2030. The population served by proposed residential charging points is determined based on convenience of accessibility within a five-minute walk or five-minute cycle. The study's findings can be valuable for practitioners deploying charging stations in the region, and the proposed methodology can be adapted globally in similar cities.

Summary: Increasing integration of distributed energy resources (DER) in the electrical network presents unprecedented challenges for distribution network operators, especially due to the lack of monitoring infrastructure on the low voltage (LV) side. Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) methods offer a solution by utilizing machine learning algorithms to identify DER electrical signatures from aggregated measurements at the LV side. This study proposes a novel implementation of NILM methods and achieves high F-1 scores for the identification of Electrical Vehicles (EV) and rooftop photovoltaic (PV) based on real-time low frequency electric measurements.

Summary: As the global population grows, the demand for food, energy, and water will increase significantly. However, limited land availability and competition for solar resources pose challenges to resource generation technologies. In the United States, both agriculture and solar energy production have adopted densification schemes to improve yields and energy output per unit of land. This research proposes an Agrivoltaic food and energy coproduction architecture that optimizes power generation while maintaining crop productivity by implementing ideal anti-tracking during critical growth periods. This technology offers a viable pathway for widespread solar implementation throughout the contiguous United States.
