Valuing consumer participation in security enhancement of microgrids (2019)
Journal Article

This study proposes a time-based security (TBS) evaluation mechanism for radial microgrids (MGs) short-term operation. In the proposed framework, system security is modelled using time-based sensitivity analysis in the load points.Occurring branch co...

Stochastic System of Systems Architecture for Adaptive Expansion of Smart Distribution Grids (2019)
Journal Article

The incorporation of the reconfiguration into the expansion planning of smart distribution networks is addressed in this paper, in which the potential of distributed energy resources and demand response (DR) are modeled. The system of systems (SoS) a... Read More about Stochastic System of Systems Architecture for Adaptive Expansion of Smart Distribution Grids.

A mathematical framework for reliability-centered maintenance in microgrids (2018)
Journal Article

In this paper, the central principles of reliability‐centered maintenance (RCM)and corresponding mathematical concepts for its implementation in microgrids are discussed. A systematic framework is suggested that exploits the fundamentals of multi att... Read More about A mathematical framework for reliability-centered maintenance in microgrids.

An optimal market-oriented demand response model for price-responsive residential consumers (2018)
Journal Article

For many years in the wholesale electricity market, the generation companies would only seek to compete with each other to sell electric energy to customers in a way to make more profit. Moreover, there was no mechanism in such an environment to enab... Read More about An optimal market-oriented demand response model for price-responsive residential consumers.

End‐user participation in a collaborative distributed voltage control and demand response programme (2018)
Journal Article

A new generation of electric appliances with controllable reactive power creates an opportunity for operators in distribution systems to
be used as a resource for reactive power support. On the other hand, implementing demand response (DR) programm... Read More about End‐user participation in a collaborative distributed voltage control and demand response programme.

Towards robust OPF solution strategy for the future AC/DC grids: case of VSC‐HVDC‐connected offshore wind farms (2018)
Journal Article

This study jointly addresses two major challenges in power system operations: (i) sustained growth of intermittent offshore wind farms (OWFs) connected to AC grid via multi-terminal voltage source converter (VSC)-based high-voltage DC (HVDC) grid tha... Read More about Towards robust OPF solution strategy for the future AC/DC grids: case of VSC‐HVDC‐connected offshore wind farms.

A novel multiobjective generation and transmission investment framework for implementing 100% renewable energy sources (2017)
Journal Article

Over the last decade, it has been considerable attempts to replace thermal power plants by renewable energy sources (RESs), mainly to reduce harmful gaseous emissions. Ubiquitous nature of these sources in the emerging smart grid,demands a dominated...
