This paper presents an improved solution for optimal placement and sizing of active power conditioner (APC) to enhance power quality in distribution systems using the improved discrete firefly algorithm (IDFA). A multi-objective optimization problem is formulated to improve voltage profile, minimize voltage total harmonic distortion and minimize total investment cost. The performance of the proposed algorithm is validated on the IEEE 16- and 69-bus test systems using the Matlab software. The obtained results are compared with the conventional discrete firefly algorithm, genetic algorithm and discrete particle swarm optimization. The comparison of results showed that the proposed IDFA is the most effective method among others in determining optimum location and size of APC in distribution systems. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

Improved energy management of chiller system with AI-based regression

Fu-Wing Yu, Wai-Tung Ho, Chak-Fung Jeff Wong

Summary: This research aims to enhance the energy management in commercial building air-conditioning systems, specifically focusing on chillers. Ridge regression is found to outperform lasso and elastic net regression when optimized with the appropriate hyperparameter, making it the most suitable method for modeling the system coefficient of performance (SCOP). The key variables that strongly influence SCOP include part load ratios, the operating numbers of chillers and pumps, and the temperatures of chilled water and condenser water. Additionally, July is identified as the month with the highest potential for performance improvement. This study introduces a novel approach that balances feature selection, model accuracy, and optimal tuning of hyperparameters, highlighting the significance of a generic and simplified chiller system model in evaluating energy management opportunities for sustainable operation. The findings from this research can guide future efforts towards more energy-efficient and sustainable operations in commercial buildings.

Gerardo Humberto Valencia-Rivera, Maria Torcoroma Benavides-Robles, Alonso Vela Morales, Ivan Amaya, Jorge M. Cruz-Duarte, Jose Carlos Ortiz-Bayliss, Juan Gabriel Avina-Cervantes

Summary: Electric power system applications are complex optimization problems. Most literature reviews focus on studying electrical paradigms using different optimization techniques, but there is a lack of review on Metaheuristics (MHs) in these applications. Our work provides an overview of the paradigms underlying such applications and analyzes the most commonly used MHs and their search operators. We also discover a strong synergy between the Renewable Energies paradigm and other paradigms, and a significant interest in Load-Forecasting optimization problems. Based on our findings, we provide helpful recommendations for current challenges and potential research paths to support further development in this field.
