<![CDATA[Electricity supply has gained importance with the increase of electricity demand in the world. The energy that the sun can accept forever provides great convenience for electricity generation. In regions where the sun's rays are steep, it is easier to generate electricity from the solar energy, whereas in regions where the sun's rays are horizontal, the electricity production from the solar energy remains at a lower level. In this study, Istanbul and Adana are compared in the northern and southern regions of Turkey. These two cities were examined for daily sunshine periods, daily and monthly radiation amounts. The effects of air temperatures and sunshine durations on the average radiation amounts have been investigated. The province of Adana has an annual total of 1568.49 kWh, whereas the province of Istanbul has a total of 1327 kWh radiation. When the annual sunshine periods are examined, it is 97.13 hours in Adana and 78.99 hours in Istanbul. It is seen that less electricity production can be done year round in Istanbul province and the hourly production is more than that in Adana when compared to sunrise times. When the average annual temperatures are examined, Adana province is 19 °C and Istanbul province is 13.8 °C. Although the province of Istanbul has a lower average temperature, it has been found that it has a higher yield than the province of Adana.]]>

<![CDATA[A primary requirement of a modern electric power system is reasonable ability to satisfy the customer load requirements. Electric utilities involve generation, transmission, and distribution facilities each one of which contributes its own inherent difficulties to the problem of satisfying customer requirement. A power system should be designed and expanded the facilities in order to perform its intended function with a reasonable risk. With increasing the electrical energy demand and the potential of disruption that may occur in the system, the distribution system must have high reliability and continues supply to customer. In this case, the reliability of the distribution system needs to be evaluated by monitoring and analyzing the level of distribution system failure in a certain period of time. A study on a practical distribution system with application of automatic circuit reclosers (ACRs) which plays an important role in enhancing the reliability index of system is presented. The reliability index assessment analyze the reliability index of the existing system before and after application of ACRs. From the simulation point of view, the system average interruption frequency index (SAIFI) is about 19.43% or decreased the failure frequent event from 11.4 failure/ customer.year to 9.25 failure/customer.year); while the momentary average interruption frequency index (MAIFI) has decreased from 6.72 failure/customer.year to 5.05 failure/ customer.year, or increase the reliability index of about 24.85%.]]>

<![CDATA[Indonesia is blessed with abundant renewable energy resources. Nevertheless, they have only been used to cover about 5% of the total national energy demand. To optimize their utilization, the government has to make and implement a policy that will encourage PLN costumers to help increase their on-grid power supply capacity. This policy will provide benefits for islands that are already equipped with PLN power grids. This paper uses Solar Power Plants and household costumers as models to calculate potential on-grid power increase which can be contributed by PLN costumers. A two-way power meter is used to replace the currently used one. This model will be applied to the conventional grid to demonstrate the compatibility that show how it is applicable even without upgrading the conventional grid to become smart grid system. The result shows that customers can participate significantly through the flow of their excess energy to grid.]]>

<![CDATA[Renewables will play an important role in the generation for the next decades, but the great problem they face is the intermittency of the natural resource availability, mainly when considering solar and wind generation. In this context, the pumped-storage finds a great opportunity. Its operation consists of two mains mechanisms: to pump water to be stored in an upper reservoir when there is surplus of energy in the system, and to generate as a regular power plant, with the stored water, when there is a lack of energy in the system. This paper presents an introductory with a revision of the world consumption and capacity of 2030 considering the parcel of renewables, and a simulation of several possibilities of the energy mix in various Scenarios. The simulations consider mainly the contribution of pumped-storage hydro. The possible arrangements of construction pumped-storage hydro, costs, and a mathematical model of linear optimization using pumped-storage are analyzed and presented. The developed method is applied to several Scenarios and the conclusions are obtained from that.]]>

<![CDATA[This study analyses the CO2 emission implications of considering energy tax in power sector planning for the case of Indonesia. There are four energy tax rates considered in this study i.e. US$0.5/MBtu, US$1.0/MBtu, US$2.0/MBtu and US$5/MBtu. Furthermore, this study also analyses the decomposition of the economy-wide CO2 emission changes due to the carbon tax rates by using an input-output model. The implications of energy tax on utility planning would bring the sytem more efficient because more energy efficient technology power plants, such as CCGT, would be selected, while in the case of environmental implications, CO2 emissions would be reduced. The results show that there is a significant change in the annual CO2 emissions if energy tax rate of US$5/MBtu is introduced. There are three major components that affect the total economy-wide change in CO2 emissions, i.e., fuel mix-, structural-, and final demand- effects. The results show that the fuel mix effect is found to be most influential in reducing the CO2 emission during the planning horizon under all of the energy tax rates considered and is followed by the final demand- and structural-effects.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper presents the development of hardware testbed for implementing grid connected wind-solar power system. A solar simulator using halogen lamp is employed to simulate the sun irradiation. The wind power simulator is developed by coupling the DC motor and the DC generator. A grid tie inverter is employed to connect the power from the solar and wind power system with the grid system. The experimental results show that the developed testbed could be used for testing the hybrid power system in the real hardware.]]>

<![CDATA[The dependency of relying on switching power supplies is increasing and in more demand these days to present superior efficiency as it’s compared to conventional linear power supplies. The main target in any type of photovoltaic power system is to increase the efficiency rate of the PV arrays; and as a result power systems that depend on a set of PV arrays have a priority to track the maximum power point MPP to extract the ultimate maximum power from the set of arrays. One of their important characteristics is the ability to provide step-up in the form of Boost converters, step-down in the form of buck converters, and utilized in the sense of inverting. In this research paper we will delineate a sector of the various sort of switching regulators used in dc-dc conversion especially the boost converter. In addition a review of the control techniques for these converters were touched based.]]>

<![CDATA[Focused on predicting and preventing electrical failures, this paper presents methodologies to those responsible for managing the electrical supplies in Healthcare and other similar environments. Particular attention has been directed to developing ways of exploiting the known relationships between thermal and electrical engineering disciplines as a means of monitoring and informing a timely intervention. There are two major studies presented in this paper which contrubute resilience in specific areas of Healtcare Facility. The first study is focusing on thermography, it is enhanced with an application of the finite difference method for modelling thermal performance under adverse conditions has been analysed.Thsi methos could provide a more robust solution for appraising new and existing installations. Study shows that early identification. A second study was carried out to examine the use of weather forecast-based electrical site load predictions as a possible precursor to automated load shed control which found reliable correlation between a site’s peak electrical load and the peak outside air temperature. The use of weather forecast-based electrical site load will help reducing unnecessary tripping of the power supply and this increase resilience.]]>
