Abstract

The rapid depletion of fossil fuels and the necessity for reduced carbon emissions have led to an increased focus on renewable energy resources. The existing microgrid system comprises solely a diesel generator and a small portion of hydropower. Currently, Kadan Island relies mainly on diesel generators to supply power, resulting in a significantly higher cost of energy in comparison to other areas. Furthermore, there is still not enough electricity available on the entire island of Kadan. However, research has shown that integrating renewable-based systems with storage technologies into existing systems can help mitigate these issues. Therefore, the main objective of this paper is to investigate the optimal size and operation of a hybrid renewable system on the Myanmar Islands. The optimization process will focus on minimizing the net present cost (NPC) and cost of energy (COE) of the selected location. Additionally, the island's network will be analyzed under normal operating conditions with different scenarios, and the best scenario for the existing microgrid on Kadan Island will be recommended.

Abstract

Nowadays, lithium-ion batteries have been garnered significant attention as the primary energy source for energy storage devices within the renewable energy sector. Key concerns surrounding the utilization of lithium-ion batteries include ensuring satisfactory design lifespan and safe operation. Consequently, there's been a practical need for battery management. Responding to this demand, various battery state indicators have seen widespread implementation. Among the battery state indicators, accurate state-of-charge (SOC) estimation is an essential requirement for many situations where Li-Ion batteries (LiBs) are used. The effectiveness of a Battery Management System (BMS) safeguards the battery against deep discharging and over-charging to maximize its lifespan. This paper conducts state of charge (SOC) evaluation of a Li-ion battery module (12V, 13 Ah lithium titanate oxide (LTO) battery) for battery management systems (BMS) in energy storage systems (ESSs).

Abstract

Electric vehicles (EVs) are catching on everywhere worldwide. Building more clean energy infrastructure for EVs could help lessen greenhouse gas emissions and make city air cleaner. EVs charged with electricity from solar panels emit fewer pollutants compared to those charged with grid electricity. Therefore, combining solar power with EV charging stations could be a good way to promote sustainable development in the EV market. Despite rapid EV adoption in Mandalay, the charging infrastructure remains limited, mostly stations reliant on grid electricity. In this paper, the proposed system integrates photovoltaic technology with the existing utility grid infrastructure of EV charging station at the corner of 78th road & 101st road in Mandalay city, Myanmar. HOMER Grid is utilized to analyze the economic feasibility. The results of the proposed system describe that the cost of energy (COE) is reduced by $0.05/kWh. Additionally, the integrated system incurs fewer costs and generates more profits.

Abstract

This research presents the design form the renewable energy sources from the high -rise building, ICON Mandalay in Mandalay,Myanmar. The amount of renewable energy sources that can be harnessed from Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV)panels installed the four facades of the high-rise building and presents the ideas of designing a small-sized wind turbine or micro wind turbine for high rise structure to generate electricity was estimated. The energy self-sufficiency of high- rise building can be approached by generating the renewable energy sources without effecting the original purpose of the structures. As global energy consumption continues to rise, managing building energy use through on-site renewable energy generation can help meet this growing demand. Based on the available building area, calculations show that the two renewable energy sources can be installed, allowing for significant energy generation potential. This paper study energy generation from building integrated renewable energy sources under varying conditions, providing insight into the variability and reliability of energy production in such an environment. Additionally, the total available energy from the BIPV is estimated 5.878 MWh/Day and micro wind Turbines is generated 43.662 kWh/Day and potential contribution to the building's power demands of high-rise buildings. The finding that the amount of energy generated by BIPV in high-rise building is 134 times grater than the energy generated by micro wind power. Therefore, BIPV sources are the most convenient option for urban energy generation in high-rise building.

Abstract

The power system of Myanmar relies on the 500 kV substations. They provide the power needs of the entire power system while covering a huge region. Examining the substation's ground grid system thoroughly is necessary to safeguard the grid and maintain its functionality. The grounding system of the substation is thoroughly examined, incorporating practical data collection for detailed analysis. Special emphasis is placed on the application of the latest IEEE 81-2013 standards during the data collection phase. The analysis and modeling of the network are conducted using ETAP software version 19. Specifically, the Ground Grid System (GGS) module, available in the latest version of ETAP (version 19), is utilized for the study. The substation is planned for an extension, which includes the installation of a new power transformer. The addition of the new power transformer is anticipated to elevate the overall fault level of the substation. This increase in fault level is analyzed in a dedicated case study, and a potential solution is proposed. A new ground mesh is also designed for this area, serving as a benchmark for future substations in the region, ensuring that essential parameters are carefully considered. Additionally, a new ground mesh is designed for a 500 kV substation, as it is expected to become part of the national grid in the near future. This aligns with the ongoing feasibility study conducted by NCC in Myanmar for the establishment of the first 500 kV substation in the area. The impact of variations in ground grid resistance and key safety parameters, influenced by changes in ground grid mesh shape, depth, and size, is thoroughly explained using results derived from various scenarios.
