Distributed energy strategy using renewable energy transformation in Kinmen Island: Virtual power plants that take the military camps as the mainstay by Hsi-Chieh Lee, Hua-Yueh Liu, Sheng-Yuan Teng

“…Peak sun-hours and military camps are utilized to develop a virtual power plant based on renewable energy, where the resulting distributed energy strategy reduces the demand for fuel oil in existing centralized power plants. The proposed energy management system regulates an energy storage system to compensate for the intermittent power fluctuations of renewable energy at the power-generation end, reducing the burden of backup capacity and balancing the overall power system. …”

Case studies of community microgrid incorporating renewable resources and EV charging station by Yue, Kit Chong

“…A microgrid is a localized grouping of electricity generation, energy storage, and load that most of the time operates connected to a traditional centralized power grid. A microgrid system was set up in Laboratory for Clean Energy Research to study the power flow and investigate the operation of microgrid under various practical conditions. 16 case studies have been carried out using simulation software (PowerWorld) to investigate the effects of weather have on the performance of the microgrid followed by 10 hardware experiments carried out using the microgrid setup in LaCER to verify the software results and observe microgrid performance in real life. 30 case studies have been set up in PowerWorld to study how microgrid reacts and performs when electric vehicles (EVs) are incorporated into the system. 10 case studies have been carried out using the OPF algorithm to observe its contribution in improving the microgrid system efficiency. 20 case studies have been carried out using both software and hardware to study the relationship between load demand variation and performance of the microgrid. …”
