A microgrid contains a PV generator and energy storage system connected in a laboratory building. Power generation is scheduled to meet the load of the building to adjust optimally the generation exchange within the microgrid. In this study, the problem of decreasing the cost of energy under...

Load frequency control or automatic generation control is one of the main operations that take place daily when considering a modern power system or not. The objectives of load frequency control are to maintain power balance between interconnected areas and to control the power flow in the...

This paper presents an energy and exergy co-optimization method of integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) based on Fuzzy Supervisory Predictive Control (FSPC). Firstly, a green IGCC process is proposed which contains three principle couplings: air separation unit (ASU), heat recovery...

With the depletion of the conventional energy sources, measures are being taken to create an alternate energy sources for the future. Energy harvesting from different sources are one of the better steps taken in this direction. Mechanical energy harvesting from the waste mechanical source is...
