Participation of Active Buildings in Peer-to-Peer and Local Transactive Energy Markets (2021)
Book Chapter

In recent years, great environmental concerns have led to the transition of the energy sector by integrating distributed energy resources (DER) into the power system. Hence, the former passive buildings of the network are turning into active building... Read More about Participation of Active Buildings in Peer-to-Peer and Local Transactive Energy Markets.

Value of regional constraint management services of vector-bridging systems in a heavily constrained network (2021)
Journal Article

While a lot of countries put renewable energy sources at the heart of their decarbonization strategies with directed incentive mechanisms, the variability of the renewable energy sources, remains a major challenge for electricity system operators in...

Tree-Partitioning as an Emergency Measure to Contain Cascading Line Failures (2021)
Journal Article

This paper proposes to replace controlled islanding, which is a defense mechanism against cascading failures, by tree partitioning whereby some of the tie-lines connecting the clusters are still connected in such a way that the cluster-level graph f...
