K-BEMS 시스템은 태양광과 배터리를 Hybrid PCS 및 EMS로 구성하여, 건물에너지 절감 및 건물 PEAK 부하를 감축하기 위해 도입되었으며, 200여 한전 사옥에 보급되어 시범 운영되고 있다. K-BEMS 시스템을 보다 안정적으로 그리고 효율적으로 운영하기 위한 K-BEMS 연구과제를 2016년 1월부터 2018년 현재까지 전력연구원이 약 3년간 걸쳐 수행하였다. 본 논문에서는 K-BEMS 연구과제에서 수행한 9가지 Scheduling 운전 모드 시험 결과 및 3년간의 Scheduling 운전 결과 발견한 문제점, 그리고 이 문제점 해결을 위해 도입한 제어 알고리즘을 보여 주고 있다. K-BEMS 9가지 Scheduling 자동제어 운전모드 시험을 수행 하였으며, 이 중 3가지 운전모드에서 알고리즘 개선 사항을 발견하였는데, 이들 3가지 경우 모두 배터리 연계 운전과 관련이 있는 것으로 드러났다. 배터리 SOC(State of Charge)는 통상 20% 이상에서 운전되는데, 20% 이하가 되면 배터리 보호 차단기가 동작하여 K-BEMS 자동 운전이 정지되는 현상을 발생한다. 그런데 이 Hybrid 자동제어 모드에서, 배터리 차단기 trip시 태양광 공급마저 중단되는 현상을 발견하였다. 그러므로, Hybrid 공급모드에서 배터리의 차단기가 동작될 경우, 태양광 단독운전으로 자동 전환하여 태양광 공급마저 중단되지 않도록 알고리즘을 재구성하여 자동제어 운전하는 것이 총 에너지 절감 측면에서 반드시 필요한 것으로 분석되었다. 이 때, 계측제어 오차를 감안하여야 하며, 배터리 정지를 너무 보수적으로 의식하여, SOC 운전 Range를 너무 축소해서 운전하면 당초의 피크 부하 저감 이라는 경제성 목표를 달성할 수 없으므로, 효과적인 hybrid 운전(건물 피크 부하 감축 운전)을 위해서는 정지된 SOC 값을 컴퓨터가 기억하고 있다가, 향후 재가동 자동제어 운전시에서는 SOC Range값을 변경 조정 하여 최적 제어 운전하는 자동제어 알고리즘이 PV & Battery hybrid peak load demand control에서 반드시 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

Uncoordinated charging of large-scale electric vehicles (EVs) will have a negative impact on the secure and economic operation of the power system, especially at the distribution level. Given that the charging load of EVs can be controlled to some extent, research on the optimal charging control of EVs has been extensively carried out. In this paper, two possible smart charging scenarios in China are studied: centralized optimal charging operated by an aggregator and decentralized optimal charging managed by individual users. Under the assumption that the aggregators and individual users only concern the economic benefits, new load peaks will arise under time of use (TOU) pricing which is extensively employed in China. To solve this problem, a simple incentive mechanism is proposed for centralized optimal charging while a rolling-update pricing scheme is devised for decentralized optimal charging. The original optimal charging models are modified to account for the developed schemes. Simulated tests corroborate the efficacy of optimal scheduling for charging EVs in various scenarios.

The introduction of competition in electricity markets emphasizes the importance of sufficient transmission capacities to guarantee effective power transactions. Therefore, for the economic and stable electric power system operation, transmission security constrains should be incorporated into the dispatch scheduling problem. With the intent to solve this problem, we decompose a dispatch scheduling problem into a master problem(MP) and several subproblems(SPs) using Benders decomposition. The MP solves a general optimal power flow(OPF) problem while the SPs inspect the feasibility of OPF solution under respective transmission line contingencies. If a dispatch scheduling solution given by the MP violates transmission security constraints, then additional constraints corresponding to the violations are imposed to the MP. Through this iterative process between the MP and SPs, we derive an optimal dispatch schedule incorporating the post-contingency corrective rescheduling. In addition, we consider interruptible loads as active control variables since the interruptible loads can participate as generators in competitive electricity markets. Numerical examples demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

There are some demand response program which is Direct Load Control and so on in Korea. These are used to manage lack of power stability or shift peak time for shading load. It is very important not only using stability power system but controling and scheduling power system on the whole. Interruptible loads are essential resources to solve lack of energy and limit of constructing generator On recently days, Demand Response Program's reliability is recognized as ancillary or reserve service in many country. This paper presents a necessity to apply demand resource to our ancillary program. For this reason, it is introduce overseas ancillary program using load resource.

멀티컴퓨터 시스템은 많은 연산 노드들을 이용함으로써 높은 성능을 얻는다. 다차원 매쉬(mash)는 단순함과 효율성 때문에 멀티컴퓨터 구조로 널리 이용되었다. 본 논문은 3차원 토러스(torus) 시스템을 위한 최초 적합(first-fit) 방법에 기반한 효율적인 프로세서 할당 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 알고리즘은 CST(Coverage Status Table)을 이용하여 3차원 정보를 2차원 정보로 변형하므로써 프로세서 할당 시간을 최소화 한다. 종합적인 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안한 방법이 최적 적합(best-fit)에 기반한 기존 방법들과 비교해서 프로세서 이용률은 비슷하면서, 프로세서 할당 시간이 항상 짧다는 것을 보여준다. 성능 차이는 입력 부하가 증가함에 따라 더욱 두드러진다. 다른 스케줄링 환경상에서 제안된 방법의 성능을 조사하기 위해서, 전형적인 FCFS 스케줄링 기법과 함께 non-FCFS 스케줄링 기법도 연구된다.

The power flow analysis of electrified railway is required complicated calculation, because of variable load. Train runs trough rail supplied by electric power therefore, the load value in electrified railway system fluctuates along time. The power flow algorithm in electrified railway system is different from general power system, and the power flow simulation is peformed by the particular simulation software. Powerail is simulation software for analysis of traction power supply system developed by KRRI, in 2008. This consists of load forecasting module, including TPS and time scheduling, and power flow module. This software was verified by measured current under normal feeding condition, however, has not been verified by voltage on the condition of extended feeding. This paper presents the verification of PowerRail based on voltage drop under extended feeding condition. This is performed by comparing simulation result with field test. Field test and simulation is done in commercial railway line.

To provide electricity power of good quality, it is essential to establish generation of electricity plan in electric power system based on accurate power-demand prediction and cope with changes of power-need fluctuating constantly. The role of hydraulic-power generation of electricity in electric power system is of importance because responding to electric power-demand counts or reservoir-type hydraulic-power generation of electricity which is designed for additional load in electric power system. So hydraulic-power generation of electricity must have fast start reserve. But the amount of water, resources of reservoir-type hydraulic-power generation of electricity is restricted and multi-used, so the scheduling of management by exact forecasting the amount of water is critical. That is why efficient hydraulic-power generation of electricity makes a main role on pumping up the utility of energy and water resource. This thesis introduced the example of optimal generation of electricity plan establishment which is used in managing reservoir-type hydraulic-power generation of electricity.

For electricity markets to function in a truly competitive and efficient manner, it is not enough to focus solely on improving the efficiencies of power supply. To recognize price-responsive load as a reliability resource, the customer must be provided with price signals and an instrument to respond to these signals, preferably automatically. This paper attempts to develop the Windows-based load management system in competitive electricity markets, allowing the user to monitor the current energy consumption or billing information, to analyze the historical data, and to implement the consumption strategy for cost savings with nine possible scenarios adopted. Finally, this modeling framework will serve as a template containing the basic concepts that any load management system should address.

Demand response (DR) programs give opportunity to consumers to manage their electricity bills. Besides, distribution system operator (DSO) is interested in using DR programs to obtain technical and economic benefits for distribution network. Since small consumers have difficulties to individually take part in the electricity market, an entity named demand response provider (DRP) has been recently defined to aggregate the DR of small consumers. However, implementing DR programs face challenges to fairly allocate benefits and payments between DRP and DSO. This paper presents a procedure for modeling the interaction between DRP and DSO based on a bilevel programming model. Both DSO and DRP behave from their own viewpoint with different objective functions. On the one hand, DRP bids the potential of DR programs, which are load shifting and load curtailment, to maximize its expected profit and on the other hand, DSO purchases electric power from either the electricity market or DRP to supply its consumers by minimizing its overall cost. In the proposed bilevel programming approach, the upper level problem represents the DRP decisions, while the lower level problem represents the DSO behavior. The obtained bilevel programming problem (BPP) is converted into a single level optimizing problem using its Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) optimality conditions. Furthermore, point estimate method (PEM) is employed to model the uncertainties of the power demands and the electricity market prices. The efficiency of the presented model is verified through the case studies and analysis of the obtained results.
