This paper presents a methodology, which is applied to the meat industry, for the evaluation and assessment of the economical impact of customers participating in operation markets by using the flexibility they may have, as well as the amount of CO2 avoided to be emitted into the atmosphere.

Demand response has proven to be a useful mechanism that produces important benefits for both the customer and the power system. In the context of an increasingly competitive electricity market, where prices are constantly rising and the presence of renewable energy resources is gaining...

A new algorithm for shaft position sensor-less independent control of real and reactive power of the Brushless Doubly-Fed Reluctance Machine (BDFRM), an emerging competitive for applications with limited variable speed ranges (e.g. pumps or wind turbines), is proposed and experimentally verified...

The aim of this paper is to ensure the sensorless control of an inertial storage system associated to an isolated Hybrid Energy Production Unit (HEPU). The Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) is used as energy buffers in order to store or retrieve energy into a stand-alone load. A comparative...

This paper describes a DC isolated network which is fed by distributed generation (DG) from photovoltaic (PV) renewable sources to supply unbalanced AC loads. The battery energy storage bank has been connected to the DC network via DC/DC converter called storage converter to control the network...
