For energy systems in remote and remote communities, an autonomous energy system based on renewable energy can be a particularly interesting and economically advantageous solution, since the expansion of the network is often impractical due to economic and technical constraints. In this research work, we designed a hybrid solar PV system with Wind energy system in as to enhance its output capacity before its integration with the grid. Also the system is integrated with a super capacitor model for handling the change in the power demand of the system. The inverter has been modeled with Vector modulation technique which has resulted in more smooth and better output result when used in combination with DC output voltage. It was concluded that magnitude of active power output is better from the system having inverter with vector modulation control as compared to the system having inverter with simple pulse modulation control.  While calculating the RMS value of the active power it was found to be approximately 5000 VA and less pulsating than that of power output from the inverter having Pulse Modulation Control. Also computational methodology of the proposed modulation technique is very easy and the technique can be applied to multilevel inverter with any number of levels.

Over the last decades, the energy market around the world has reshaped due to accommodating the high penetration of renewable energy resources. Although renewable energy sources have brought various benefits, including low operation cost of wind and solar PV power plants, and reducing the environmental risks associated with the conventional power resources, they have imposed a wide range of difficulties in power system planning and operation. Naturally, classical optimal power flow (OPF) is a nonlinear problem. Integrating renewable energy resources with conventional thermal power generators escalates the difficulty of the OPF problem due to the uncertain and intermittent nature of these resources. To address the complexity associated with the process of the integration of renewable energy resources into the classical electric power systems, two probability distribution functions (Weibull and lognormal) are used to forecast the voltaic power output of wind and solar photovoltaic, respectively. Optimal power flow, including renewable energy, is formulated as a single-objective and multi-objective problem in which many objective functions are considered, such as minimizing the fuel cost, emission, real power loss, and voltage deviation. Real power generation, bus voltage, load tap changers ratios, and shunt compensators values are optimized under various power systems’ constraints. This paper aims to solve the OPF problem and examines the effect of renewable energy resources on the above-mentioned objective functions. A combined model of wind integrated IEEE 30-bus system, solar PV integrated IEEE 30-bus system, and hybrid wind and solar PV integrated IEEE 30-bus system are performed using the equilibrium optimizer technique (EO) and other five heuristic search methods. A comparison of simulation and statistical results of EO with other optimization techniques showed that EO is more effective and superior.


: Due to the increase of load demand in future, the generation must also increase. The use of traditional resources such as coal, diesel fuels etc., causes global warming which is leading us to shift to renewable energy resources. Renewable energy resources may in include solar, wind, tidal as the source for production. These are used in small quantities as Distribution Generators (DG) at different locations in a bus system. As the generation of these sources is less when connected to grid, we call them as micro-grids. These micro grids generally use these DGs to distribute power to loads, and involve power electronic elements to control the generation. It induces energy into the system but also create a problem of harmonic distortions and voltage sags. To eliminate these sags and harmonics in the micro grid system caused by the power electronic devices employed by the renewable sources, we induce a UPQC (Unified Power Quality Conditioner) system. The UPQC system eliminates the harmonics in the systems and restores the voltage of the micro-grid system. We introduce a new topology called instantaneous reactive power (IRP) theory in the UPQC control to operate in a more efficient way, by utilizing RES (Renewable Energy Sources) at the DC-link. The RES support the UPQC system by injecting the active power generated by the resources through DC-link.

India has a vast supply of renewable energy resources, and it has one of the largest programs in the world for deploying renewable energy products and systems. Indeed, it is the only country in the world to have an exclusive ministry for renewable energy development, the Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources (MNES). Since its formation, the Ministry has launched one of the world's largest and most ambitious programs on renewable energy. Based on various promotional efforts put in place by MNES, significant progress is being made in power generation from renewable energy sources. India emerged in 2008 as an aspiring producer of solar PV. Both National and State Governments announced new policies to support solar PV manufacturing in special economic zones, including capital investment subsidies of 20 percent. These policies led to USD 18 billion in new solar PV manufacturing investment plans or proposals by a large number of companies. We know where the non renewable energies – coal, oil and gas – are located and how these fuels are transported, combusted, and the power transmitted throughout the country over the power grid. Now, let's look at the renewable energies hydro, solar, wind and biomass. According to the Energy Information administration (EIA) the annual average increase will be about 4.0 percent from 2002 to 2025. The projected growth in net electricity consumption for emerging market economies is driven in large part by Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and population growth assumption. It makes sense to the authors that all efforts and investment should consider accelerating these sustainable energy resources before committing to the same fossil fuel path as western nations. The fossil fuel strategy will surely bring price volatility from dwindling supplies and added pollution from carbon combustion. Tapping India's wind, solar, biomass, and hydro could bring high quality jobs from a domestic resource. Renewable energy is the measure of the development of a nation like India extensive development of the renewable energy resources on the Indian subcontinent through MNES booming economic growth, rapid Industrialization and high standard of living of global population demand more and more energy in different forms.

To a great extent, Pakistan and Turkey rely on imported fossil fuels to meet their energy demands. Pakistan is moving in the right direction, placing focus on renewable energy resources in its current infrastructure in order to address the energy shortage. Several projects (e.g., wind power and solar PV (photovoltaic) technologies) are operational or under development; they are intended to reduce energy challenges in Pakistan. The new government in Pakistan aims to increase the share of renewable energy in total power generation to 30% by 2030. On the other hand, Turkey surpasses Pakistan in renewable energy resources; for example, there are 186 operational wind energy power plants across the country. In addition, Turkey utilizes solar energy—mainly for residential usage. Turkey’s Vision 2023 energy agenda aims to supply 30% of their power demands from modern renewable energy resources. Turkey has implemented solar PV, solar buildings, wind power plants, geothermal energy resources, and biomass technology for heating, cooling and electricity generation. At present, Turkey’s supply to meet energy demands in the country is 56% fossil fuel energy resources and 44% renewable energy, including hydropower. Accessible details reveal that geothermal energy resources have been continuously neglected in Pakistan by the Ministry of Energy (power division); this is in contrast to the Turkish case, in which utilization of geothermal energy resources for heating and cooling purposes is efficient. With all the facts and figures under consideration, in this paper, comparative analyses are performed which reveal that the production of electricity from geothermal energy technologies is lower than the massive potential in both countries. Recommendations are made for important policies to promote renewable energy technologies, which could effectively support energy decentralization by providing electricity to rural areas and the national grid.

In this paper, we conclude that Indonesia has vast potential for generating and balancing solar photovoltaic (PV) energy to meet future energy needs at a competitive cost. We systematically analyse renewable energy potential in Indonesia. Solar PV is identified to be an energy source whose technical, environmental and economic potential far exceeds Indonesia’s present and future energy requirements and is far larger than all other renewable energy resources combined. We estimate that electricity consumption in Indonesia could reach 9000 terawatt-hours per year by 2050, which is 30 times larger than at present. Indonesia has abundant space to deploy enough solar to meet this requirement, including on rooftops, inland reservoirs, mining wasteland, and in combination with agriculture. Importantly, Indonesia has a vast maritime area that almost never experiences strong winds or large waves that could host floating solar capable of generating >200,000 terawatt-hours per year. Indonesia also has far more off-river pumped hydro energy storage potential than required for balancing solar generation.


Energy is the one of the basic requirements for sustained economic growth. To meet the growing requirement of energy, and to reduce the CO2 emission, many countries have chosen to meet its energy demand through renewable energy resources for sustainable development. Most popular renewable energy resources are solar and wind; due to the technological advancement in solar technology and its demand in the market made solar panels comparatively cheaper. One of the popular ways to extract solar power is installing solar rooftop. The main factor, which affects the performance of solar rooftop PV system, is power mismatch due to shading. In the literature, many reconfiguration methods have proposed based on electrical interconnections and physical location of the solar cell/modules. In this paper, physical-location based techniques are modified as electrical interconnection techniques and its performance is compared through experimentation at various shading patterns.
