Control of distributed generation for grid-connected and intentional islanding operations
The current model for electricity generation and distribution in the United States is dominated by centralized power plants. The power at these plants is typically combustion (coal, oil, and natural) or nuclear generated. Centralized power models, like this, require distribution from the center to …

Modeling a distributed energy system for California electricity production through 2050
<p>Recent research shows that combining distributed generation (DG) with renewable resources will reduce fossil fuel dependency and carbon dioxide (C02) emissions. This thesis presents a framework to evaluate the benefits of DG in terms of C02 emission and transmission line losses with respect to …

Power system stabilizer design using out of phase torque correction method
The need for power system stabilizers (PSS) in interconnected power systems has become essential to damp low frequency oscillations and enhance the system stability. Conventional PSS design techniques utilize local measurements, hence allowing the use of single machine infinite bus method to tune …
