This paper proposes a data driven model-based condition monitoring scheme that is applied to wind turbines. The scheme is based upon a non-linear data-based modelling approach in which the model parameters vary as functions of the system variables. The model structure and parameters are...

Distributed Generations (DGs) can be an efficient solution to today’s power system environmental and economical challenges. Installing DGs influences power system stability and losses. In this paper, a method is presented for locating and sizing of DGs to enhance voltage stability and to...

Finding the optimal size and locations for Photovoltaic (PV) units has been a major challenge for distribution system planners and researchers. In this study, a framework is proposed to integrate Geographical Information Systems (GIS), mathematical optimization, and simulation modules to obtain...

The exploitation of renewable energy resources poses great challenges regarding the manner in which they can be integrated into the modern electrical distribution infrastructure.
