PMU based power grid monitoring and control system, WAMAC (Wide Area Monitoring And Control) system is required system design for accurate power data without error and loss through a system-wide. In the paper, we propose system design that measured data from PMU transmitted without loss to PDC and DSM server. and we propose a method to verify the real-time "data has been transmitted accurately". Verification system has been designed to reflect the WAMAC system. Therefore the WAMAC can enhance the reliability of the analysis of the data, and it can monitor lossless real-time trend data.

In order to prohibit global warming, various kinds of regulatory policies have been established in the whole world. One example is the establishment of the Renewable Portfolio Standard. It requires the increased portion in energy production from renewable energy sources. The Republic of Korea adopted the act on the promotion of the development, use, and diffusion of new and renewable energy since 2012. However, in spite of the effort on the consideration of the renewable energy sources, it was reported the carbon intensity of electricity in Korea was not that low in 2015. Thus, it is required to examine the recent state of the utilization degree of the renewable energy sources in Korea. This paper analyzed the statistical data provided by Korea Power Exchange (KPX) to examine any problems and solutions for generating electricity from the renewable energy sources. We focused on the generation capacity provided by the power plants participated in the market, the electric power trading amount, and the utilization coefficient for 10 years. By analyzing the data, we provide an alternative to solve some imbalance among the factors contributing to renewable energy use.

While the legacy electric grid evolving into the smart grid, various communication standards have been used for interoperability between many components. In this situation, the needs emerged for protocol conversion and mapping method for connecting the outside components to the operation center. In this paper, according to the surge of IEC 61850-based substation automation, we studied the protocol conversion gateway for linking legacy DNP3-based control center and IEC 61850-based substation automation. This paper is based on the IEEE 1815.1 standard for the protocol mapping. We suggested the direction of development the gateway and developed prototype for evaluate the proposed gateway. Also, we bring up a security problem and give a solution.

In order to build a secure electric vehicle charging infrastructure, security research is required because various data including charging and payment data are transmitted in the electric vehicle charging infrastructure. However, previous researches have focused on smart grid related security research such as power system infrastructure rather than charging infrastructure for electric vehicle charging. In addition, research on charging infrastructure is still lacking, and research using a systematic methodology such as threat modeling is not yet under way. Therefore, it is necessary to apply threat modeling to identify security threats and systematically analyze security requirements to build a secure electric vehicle charging infrastructure. In this paper, we analyze the electric vehicle charging infrastructure by accurately identifying possible threats and deriving objective security requirements using threat modeling including Data Flow Diagram, STRIDE, and Attack Tree.

Nowadays, industry of smart grid is important for practical use of the renewable energy. In this situation, it is important to use the energy storage to make more stable and efficient renewable energy sources. The power conditioning systems consist in a boost converter which makes renewable energy source connected with the grid-connected inverter and the charger/discharger which takes the energy transfer between the boost converter and an energy storage. The effects on the controller design of each converter must be investigated to avoid the instability of the entire system. small-signal modelling of the boost converter and charger/discharger have been done and a controller design example is also presented. In this paper, effects on the controller design of the boost converter and the charger/discharger are investigated according to the existence of the parasitic resistance of the boost converter. In conclusion, the parasitic resistance of the inductor should be considered from the aspect of both the frequency domain analysis and time domain simulation using both MATLAB and PSIM.

This paper presents a scheduling scheme for die casting processes considering power usage. The scheduling problem of a shift-based die casting process is represented by a linear programming (LP) model that maximizes the average efficiency of melting furnaces in regard of the usage of molten alloy, where the product quantities of each shift are used as primary variables. In this research, we propose a novel LP model that considers power usage of foundries. The developed LP model can derive product plans in which the expended power of a casting shift does not exceed a prescribed limit, while optimizing the efficiency of alloy usage. The simulation result of a case study demonstrates the superiority and applicability of the proposed scheme. This paper serves as a basic research on the role of foundries as an intelligent costumer in smart grid environment where the limit of power usage should be fulfilled.

Recently, the effort of enterprises are visualized to correspond for 4th industrial revolution and climate change. Reaching the operation of industrial facilities are one of these efforts and is actively progressing under identical condition between real and virtual world through introduction of cyber-physical system (CPS). However, the problem on no unified definition for CPS still exists. Thus, in this paper, we review the previous concept of CPS. We propose new concept of CPS with four sections such as real world section, communication section, virtual world section and management section. We also propose definite concept by classifying the layer of each section. In order to confirm the possibility of application for proposed concept of CPS, we applied simple motor. We compare the result for torque between real motor and virtual motor. Finally we confirm that the applicability of proposed concept of CPS is very high.

As the spread of DC power distribution systems increases, the occurrence of failures and fire accidents are also increasing. In particular, the ESS fire accident, which is a component of the smart grid, and the fire accident of the solar power system, which is a direct current system, are caused by problems in the electrical connection between system components as the supply of new and renewable energy rapidly increases and old facilities increase. An arc that can cause a direct fire by releasing the induced light and heat has been pointed out as one of the causes of fire. Therefore, the problem of such an arc defect is that it is impossible to block an arc accident in advance with the existing overcurrent circuit breaker and earth leakage circuit breaker. In this paper, we intend to develop a test equipment that satisfies international standardization and to develop a DC arc generator to protect against failure and fire caused by arcing.

Development of low cost rechargeable batteries has been considered as a significant task for future large-scale energy storage units (i.e. electric vehicles, smart grids). Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have been recognized as a promising alternative to replace conventional lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) because of their abundancy and economic benign. Nevertheless, Na ions have larger ionic radius than that of Li ions, resulting in sluggish transport of Na ions in electrodes for cell operation. There have been efforts to seek suitable anode materials for the past years operated based on three different kinds of reaction mechanism (intercalation, alloy reaction, and conversion reaction). In this review, we introduce a class of conversion reaction anode materials for Na-ion batteries, which have been reported.
