In recent years there has been a growing interest in renewable energy systems due to the environmental problem and the economic benefits of fuel savings. Such systems are usually connected to the existing power grid for "fuel displacement" purpose as well as of earning some "capacity credit". Wind power generation system(WPGS) is one of the most useful energy resource using natural environment. So far, it was very difficult to simulate the dispersed generation system including WPGS using EMTP or EMTDC because the source of the dispersed generation system has a particular wind power characteristic equation. In this paper, a novel simulation method of WPGS has proposed and a new wind turbine component for EMTDC is also developed. The wind power characteristic equation of wind turbine is used in order to realize the WPGS in EMTDC simulation. And the real field data of weather conditions is interfaced to EMTDC using Fortran program interface method. Consequently the simulation of WPGS using field data is realized in this paper and shows acceptable results.

To address the need for autonomous control of remote and distributed mobile systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications are rapidly gaining attention from both academia and industry. M2M communications have recently been deployed in smart grid, home networking, health care, and vehicular networking environments. This paper focuses on M2M communications in the vehicular networking context and investigates areas where M2M principles can improve vehicular networking. Since connected vehicles are essentially a network of machines that are communicating, preferably autonomously, vehicular networks can benefit a lot from M2M communications support. The M2M paradigm enhances vehicular networking by supporting large-scale deployment of devices, cross-platform networking, autonomous monitoring and control, visualization of the system and measurements, and security. We also present some of the challenges that still need to be addressed to fully enable M2M support in the vehicular networking environment. Of these, component standardization and data security management are considered to be the most significant challenges.

태양광 발전은 태양에너지를 직접 전기에너지로 변환시키는 설비로서 Co2 발생이 적고 에너지원인 태양에너지가 무한하다는 장점이 있다. 현재 EU를 비롯한 선진국 및 개도국에서는 신재생에너지 확대를 위해 전 국가적으로 노력하고 있으며 특히 태양광 발전분야는 전 세계적으로 설비용량이 급증하고 있다. 국내에서도 발전차액지원제도 하에 태양광 발전설비를 확충하고 있으며, 정부가 발표한 1차국가에너지 기본계획에 의하면 2030년까지 3,504 MW로 공급규모를 확대할 방침이다. 그러나 현재 태양광 발전은 에너지 변환효율은 약 15%이며 날씨와 시간에 따라 발전에 제약이 따른다. 이에 태양광 발전의 신뢰성을 확보하기 위해 국내 발전차액지원을 받고 있는 태양광 발전소의 연간 발전량을 근거하여 이용률을 분석했다. 분석결과 일사량이 풍부한 전남지역의 이용률이 가장 높고,반대로 경기와 서울지역은 저조했으며, 연평균 15.70%의 이용률을 보였다. 한편 월간 이용률은 5월에 높게 나타났으며, 연중 최대 전력수요가 나타나는 7-9월에는 기상조건으로 인해 저조한 이용률을 보였다. 따라서 기후변화를 완화하고 저탄소 녹색성장을 구현하기 위해 기술개발을 통해 태양광 이용률 증대시켜야 한다.

Grid connected PV(Photovoltic) generation systems are becoming and actual and general. The power output of PV system is directly affected by the weather conditions. And when AC power supply is needed, power conversion by an inverter and a MPPT control are necessary. The PV power generation system can be treated to a harmonics source for the power distribution system. So, the PV system combined the function of active filter system can be useful applied in power distribution system. AF(Active Filters) intended for harmonic solutions are expending their functions from harmonic compensation of nonlinear loads into harmonic isolation between utilities and consumer. With the test analysis of the proposed control strategy of PV-AF system, the outcome of the test shows the stability and effectiveness of the proposed PV-AF system. The various capability of AF has been proved in previous research and usage. In this paper, authors present a DSP controlled PV-AF system for power conditioning in three-phase industrial or commercial power systems and verify it through experimental results.

The efficiency of the maximum power point tracking(MPPT) of inverter which is used in grid-connected photovoltaic systems is changed according to dynamic environment conditions. Hence, this paper evaluates the performance of the proposed method and other MPPT algorithm on the basis of European Efficiency Test(EN50530). The modeling of MPPT algorithm is made by the Matlab & Simulink. In the result of simulation, the more control period is shorter, the more MPPT efficiency is higher. Also, the Proposed MPPT algorithm has higher performance than other MPPT algorithm with no regard to control period.

중요부하를 가지고 있는 계통연계 인버터는 계통과의 연결이 끊길 경우 중요부하에 안정적인 전압공급을 위하여 끊김 없는 모드전환 동작이 요구된다. 기존 인버터는 계통연계 시 전류제어모드, 독립운전 시에는 전압제어모드로 운전을 한다. 그래서 모드전환 시 제어기절체로 인한 출력전압에 심각한 과도상태가 발생할 수 있으며 단독운전 검출 전에도 불안정한 전압을 부하에 공급하게 되어 중요부하에 큰 손상을 입힐 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 LCL필터 뿐만 아니라 LC필터 구조에서도 적용이 가능하며, 양방향 운전 시 자율적인 모드전환이 가능한 계통연계 인버터의 모드전환 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 5kW 시작품을 제작하여 타당성을 검증하였다.

Recently, with the rise of environmental issues and the change of government policy (Renewable Energy 3020 Implementation Plan), a large amount of renewable energy such as solar and wind power is connected to the power system, and most of the renewable energy is concentrated in the power distribution network. This causes many problems with the voltage management and the protection coordination of the grid due to the its intermittent power generation. In order to effectively operate the distribution network, it is necessary to deploy more intelligent terminal devices in the field to measure the status of the distribution network and develop various operation functions such as visualization and big data analysis to support the power distribution system operators. In addition, the failover technology must be supported for the non-stop operation of the power distribution system. This paper proposes the system architecture of new power distribution management system to cope with high penetration of renewable energy. To verify the proposed system architecture, the functional unit test and performance measurement were performed.

With recent ESS (Energy Storage System) fire accident, the fault protection performance is becoming more important. However, there has never been any experiments with the protection performance on the faults in the ESS system level. In this study, the effect of AC ground fault and IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar mode Transistor) short-circuit failure on MW class ESS was performed experimentally for the first time in the world. First of all, the effect of the AC single line ground fault on battery was analyzed. Moreover, the transient voltage was investigated as a function of the battery capacity and the power level. Finally, the breaking capability and insulation performance of ESS were examined under PCS short-circuit fault condition. Through the tests, it was found that ESS protection system safely blocked the faulty current regardless of the faults, whereas the electronic parts such as IGBT and MC (Magnetic Contactor) were broken by the fault current. Also, the electrical breakdown in ESS resulted from the transient voltage during the protection process.

This paper presents the modeling and power quality analysis of Jeju island power system connected with wind farm, and thermal power plant. It is for indicating the influence of wind farm operation in steady and transient state in Jeju island power system during the HVDC system overhaul period. For the computer simulation, three kinds of main item are modeled, which are 67[MW] wind farm, thermal power plant and Jeju power load. To analyze the influence of the wind power generation to the Jeju power system, two kinds of simulations are carried out by using the PSCAD/EMTDC program. One is the steady state operation under the variable speed wind, and the other is the transient state operation when all of wind farms in Jeju island are disconnected from the Jeju power grid instantaneously on the rated power output. With the comparison of these results, it is useful for analyzing the power quality of Jeju power system versus wind power generation.
