<![CDATA[Multilevel inverters have received a lot of interest in recent years due to their ability to deliver more voltage levels than typical two-level inverters. Because of this property, multilevel inverters can produce output waveforms that closely resemble sinusoidal waveforms, lowering harmonic distortion dramatically. The emergence of reduced switch symmetrical multilevel inverter topologies has developed the curiosity of many different power conversion systems. These new topologies offer numerous advantages, including greater output voltage quality, fewer harmonic distortions, and increased power conversion efficiency. The inclusion of these inverters in the feeding of induction motors is one of their many prominent uses. A 17 levels of multi-level inverter (MLI) topology is presented with reduced switch count and harmonic reduction for power quality improvement. The inverter is fed by isolated equal photovoltaic panels which act as direct current or DC source. To reduce complexity, switching pulses are generated using hybrid pulse width modulation technique which is designed as controller. Through the use of MATLAB/Simulink, the performance assessment of a unique cascaded multilevel inverter-based reduced switch symmetrical inverter feeding an induction motor drive has been verified. The harmonic distortion with reduced switches obtained is 7.47% which is comparatively less than when compared with conventional cascaded H-bridge topology.]]>

<![CDATA[A continuous increase in greenhouse emissions has led to more frequent use of renewable energy resources. The increased emergence of DC loads in day-to-day lives has further led to conversion to DC distribution lines. In prospect of getting more environmentally friendly, economical, and reliable power delivery a DC micro grid was developed and has become more common in recent years. The disaster management cell located at the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering has designed a DC micro grid which consists of sources provided from the grid, a battery bank, and an array of solar cells supplying to a set of nine loads, which are segregated into three sets of three loads each. This paper presents a protection scheme for the buses present in a micro grid that is based on the differential current principle. It is done with the help of a centralized protection controller that enables fault identification and fault isolation. This protection scheme is further extended to a DC ring-bus micro grid, where the centralized protection controller enables fault identification, fault location, and fault isolation. MATLAB/Simulink is used to obtain the simulation and verify the results.]]>

<![CDATA[Researchers on reducing energy losses caused by friction in small-scale wind turbines. This is crucial because a significant amount of energy is wasted due to friction in the main roller bearing. In order to overcome this, the concept of levitation has gained popularity. Levitation is achieved by employing the repelling forces between two opposing poles of a permanent magnet (PM), significantly reducing friction between the turbine stator and rotor. As a result, the overall energy production of the turbine increases. The use of passive permanent magnet bearings has several disadvantages, such as limited load-bearing capacity and rigidity. To address these limitations, we conducted numerical studies on four different configurations in order to enhance load-bearing capacity and stiffness. The results showed that the radial configuration outperformed the axial-type configuration in terms of stiffness and load-bearing capabilities in all four arrangements. Furthermore, it was revealed that radial passive magnetic bearings with adequate air gaps are not only more efficient but also less expensive than employing iron cores at the rear and between ring magnets for small-scale wind turbines.]]>

<![CDATA[Electric scooters often have a single design and are difficult to produce at a greater level than other forms of transportation. A possible cut electric scooter is built with the optimization design of the vehicle combustible wealth and the pollution characteristics in order to arrange to a correct solution by resolving each and every challenge. The engines' electrical systems are comprised of lead acid batteries. For the sake of a straightforward simulation procedure, the engine operates in two states ON and OFF while the vehicle's speed is regulated in three ranges roughly corresponding to high, medium, and low. The planetary speed ratio and the final drive speed ratio are gathered in the computation method's general outline. Utilizing simulation MATLAB, the findings of optimization strategies are resolved. This technique improves the fuel plenty and discharge quality of the possibility cut electric automobiles.]]>

<![CDATA[Stand-alone photovoltaic system or PV is a power generation technology with potential that is environmentally friendly and also one of the solutions for saving high electricity rates today. However, problems that often occur due to weather fluctuations that are always changing, especially North Sumatra, Indonesia result in the conversion produced by solar cells not being optimal. Therefore, it is necessary to do a new model with a dual tracker system and the development of accelerator motor actuators so that the resulting energy conversion is more optimal. The result of optimizing the reliability of the polycrystalline type solar panel which is designed with an additional photovoltaic tracker system to maximize the conversion of solar energy to solar panels is to obtain an output power of 303.72 volts DC and 267.52 volts DC in the position where the tracker is not used. Then the percentage increase in energy reached 29.80%. Dual axis tracker technology is able to maximize energy conversion in improving PV usage performance. The implementation of a stand-alone PV system will be beneficial if the installation is in Indonesian territory, especially in disadvantaged, frontier and outermost areas.]]>

<![CDATA[In recent trends, hybrid renewable energy sources (HRES) provide a better solution to meet energy demand, maximizing the productivity of electricity network. Due to the above-mentioned features, several researchers have given more attention to PV-wind-based HRES systems. A stable energy supply must be added, including batteries, diesel generator (DG), to meet demand in the event of a grid failure. To meet the voltage unbalance in islanded mode, the sizes of DG have need to be selected sensibly and HRES requires additional energy storage. To examine the voltage unbalance problems of an islanded microgrid, a hybrid optimization approach known as moth flame optimization (MFO) and firebug swarm optimization (FSO) is introduced. Due to various loads, harmonic distortion causes the voltage to unbalance, which can result in voltage collapse. To deliver a quick response in an island mode, a comprehensive algorithm called MFO-FSO control is proposed. MATLAB software is used to validate the results which demonstrate that the proposed MFO-FSO outperforms the conventional decoupling double synchronous reference frame (DDSRF) methods by reducing total harmonic distortion (THD) up to 1.21% and voltage unbalance factor (VUF) up to 1.427%.]]>

<![CDATA[Exploiting natural sun and wind resources in remote and isolated areas is undoubtedly an excellent decision to generate electrical energy due to their availability and cleanliness. Various systems were used to generate this energy, such as photovoltaics (PV), wind turbine sand other energy systems. Moreover, for optimum energy use, some of these systems are combined either with each other or with other conventional systems, such as diesel generators with PV systems (i.e., hybrid systems). This work aims to present a technical-economic study of PV/diesel autonomous hybrid systems to supply electrical power for an isolated house located in a hot desert climate, Adrar. For optimizing the hybrid systems, hourly input data of solar radiation and load were used according to two configurations, where the annual load is 11.2 kWh/day. The findings showed that the diesel system had a high cost, with a cost for energy of $0.407/kWh and a fuel price of $0.140/l. Among the hybrid power systems but with significant pollution, the proposed hybrid system 2 kw photovoltaic and diesel generator with 2.3 kW has important economic feasibility, where the energy cost amounted to $0.172/kWh. In addition, CO2 emissions are reduced by approximately 5 tons every year compared to an independent diesel generator system.]]>

<![CDATA[One way to increase electric vehicle (EV) battery utilization is to connect it to a dc microgrid. The EV battery can assume the role of an energy storage from the grid point of view. A bidirectional DC-DC converter will be needed to transfer power between them back and forth. This paper proposes the converter design considering its functional objective, including interleaved phase number determination. Efficiency performance evaluation is presented by power loss analysis with the parasitic-parameters consideration of the components. Finding optimum switching frequency based on power loss analysis is performed independently between input and output sides of the converter. Finally, experiments using a scaled-down prototype are shown to verify the analytical analysis of the converter. The experimental results properly validate the power loss analytic analysis carried out in this paper with a maximum error of 2.04% at 1131-watt, 60 V battery voltage, and 140 V grid voltage. Maximum efficiency 96.97% is obtained at 301-watt, 130 V battery voltage, and 151 V grid voltage. Overall, the converter has a simple structure, capable to be operated in various levels of input and output voltages with a minimum battery side current ripple.]]>

<![CDATA[The main objective of this paper is to simulate and optimize a current aperture vertical electron transistor (CAVET) based on gallium nitride (GaN), which combines both a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) and a vertical structure using the SILVACO-TCAD simulator. The dimensions of the structure were reduced by 45% to minimize the size and improve the performances of the proposed device; also, a part of aluminum nitride (AlN)was added to the current blocking layer (CBL) to modulate the conduction band profile. The results obtained from the simulation of our structure demonstrated a maximum drain current of 1.8 A/mm, Pinch-off voltage (VP) of -6 V, drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) of 166 mV/V, maximum transconductance (gm) of 570 mS/mm, gate-leakage of 7.10-7 A, cut-off frequency (ft) of 200 GHz, maximum oscillation frequency (fMax) of 400 GHz. The proposed device exhibited outstanding performance while consuming low power, making it well-suited for use as a low-noise amplifier (LNA) in satellite reception applications.]]>

<![CDATA[Integrated wind-photovoltaic (PV) based standalone electric power supply systems are widely used for various applications. A battery storage system is needed to provide continuous power supply to loads despite changes in loads, wind speed, and solar irradiance. Power quality is crucial in these hybrid systems, as the battery needs to charge from surplus power when generation exceeds the load and discharge to meet load demand. A bidirectional DC to DC converter is used to connect the battery to the network, and maximum power point tracking devices with proper algorithms are incorporated for optimal utilization of PV and wind turbines. Multiple PV systems and wind turbines are considered for proper power supply system ratings. Long short-term memory (LSTM) based artificial neural network (ANN) controllers are implemented for various control units in the hybrid standalone power system. The proposed control techniques improve power quality under various situations. Results are presented using MATLAB/Simulink to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.]]>
