Abstract

This study aims to enhance operational efficiency in chiller plants by implementing the Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO) algorithm. The primary objectives are to simultaneously reduce energy consumption and increase cooling efficiency, addressing the challenges posed by variable environmental and operational conditions. Employing the MOPSO algorithm, this research conducts a detailed analysis using real-time environmental data and operational parameters. This approach facilitates a dynamic adaptation to changes in ambient temperature and electricity pricing, ensuring that the algorithm's application remains effective under fluctuating conditions. The application of MOPSO has resulted in significant reductions in energy use and improvements in cooling efficiency. These results demonstrate the algorithm's capacity to optimize chiller plant operations dynamically, adapting to changes in environmental conditions and operational demands. The study finds that MOPSO's adaptability to dynamic operational conditions enables robust energy management in chiller plants. This adaptability is crucial for maintaining efficiency and cost-effectiveness in industrial applications, especially under varying environmental impacts. The paper contributes to the field by enhancing the understanding of how advanced optimization algorithms like MOPSO can be effectively integrated into energy management systems for chiller plants. A novel aspect of this research is the integration of real-time data analytics into the optimization process, which significantly improves the sustainability and operational efficiency of HVAC systems. Furthermore, the study outlines the potential for similar research applications in large-scale HVAC systems, where such algorithmic improvements can extend practical benefits. The findings underscore the importance of considering a broad range of environmental and operational factors in the optimization process and suggest that MOPSO's flexibility and robustness make it a valuable tool for achieving sustainable and cost-effective energy management in industrial settings.

Abstract

Accurate forecasting of seasonal power consumption is crucial for effective grid management, especially with increasing energy demand and renewable energy integration. Weather patterns significantly influence energy usage, making load prediction a challenging task. This study employs machine learning algorithms, including Random Forest (RF), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), and Decision Tree (DT) models, to forecast electricity consumption using meteorological variables such as solar irradiance, humidity, and ambient temperature. The impact of weather elements on load prediction accuracy across different seasons is explored using seasonal forecasting techniques. The results demonstrate the superior performance of ANN and RF models in forecasting summer and winter loads compared to the rainy season. This discrepancy is attributed to the abundance of data for the summer and winter seasons, and the ability of the models to capture complex patterns within the data for these particular seasons. The study highlights the potential of machine learning techniques, particularly ANN and RF, in conjunction with meteorological data analysis, for enhancing the accuracy of seasonal electrical load forecasting. This can contribute to more effective power grid management and support the transition towards a more sustainable energy landscape. The findings underscore the importance of data quality, quantity, and appropriate model selection for different seasonal conditions.

Abstract

A proposal is presented for a low voltage (LV) grid integrated single-stage solar photovoltaic (SPV) system, accompanied by a hybrid control methodology aimed at optimizing system performance. To address prevailing challenges, the hybrid method incorporates the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). Anticipated benefits of this initiative include efficient power distribution, load connectivity facilitated by the system, and operational functionalities such as mode zero voltage regulation and power factor adjustment. These functionalities collectively enhance energy quality by mitigating harmonic components, compensating for reactive power, and ensuring load balance. The proposed control strategy for a photovoltaic (PV) system interfaced with the grid is designed to exhibit rapid response times in both static and dynamic conditions. Comparative analyses were conducted between the output of our method and that of several competing approaches. The MATLAB/Simulink platform is employed for the purpose of demonstrating the developed system. The results show the extent to which the proposed controller works with reactive power compensation and load balancing to minimize network harmonics and maximize power consumption while keeping power factor functions at unity.
