Chair:                 J. McConnach, IEEE-PES

 

This super session promises to be highly stimulating, interesting and wide ranging with a decidedly international flavour and should not be missed.  The session covers some of the latest developments, thinking and policy in renewable generation and green sustainability. The papers presented cover not only the more common renewable generation options such as hydro, wind and solar but also fuel cells, ocean energy, small nuclear reactors, and waste to energy developments. The green sustainability presentations cover green building design, hybrid electric vehicles and sustainable energy policy.  The presenters and topics hail from as far afield as Australia and Japan and include presenters from, Canada, Germany, India, Iran, Korea, Portugal and the UK in addition to the USA.

*SG*  Transmission Capacity Enhancement in the 21st. Century

Sponsored by:    PES

Chair:                 C. Canizares, University of Waterloo

 

The aging of transmission systems and the need to increase their capacity have been identified as major challenges that the power industry is facing in the short, medium and long terms, in view of the significant effect of these systems on power system operation and reliability as well as electricity pricing. In this session, various papers will be presented discussing a variety of issues associated with the enhancement of transmission capacity in the context of competitive electricity markets, considering a variety of relevant technical, economic and regulatory issues.

 

Besides the discussion of novel techniques for planning new transmission lines, other relevant alternatives that directly influence transmission system capacity such as appropriate series compensation will be presented.

*SG*  Integrating Distributed Generation

Sponsored by:    PES and Energy Development & Power Generation Committee

Chair:                 R. Ramakumar, Oklahoma State University

 

There are two basic types of integration that are of interest in dealing with distributed generation (DG). The obvious one is integration with an existing utility grid/power system. Integrating generation outputs from different renewable energy sources and DG units such as small-scale diesel and/or gas turbine units could be useful in isolated and microgrid applications. Power electronic interfaces play a vital role in both types of integration.  The specific type of interface to be employed depends on the generation type – photovoltaics (PV), wind-electric, micro-hydro, fuel cells, solar-thermal-electric, etc.

 

The collection of five papers scheduled in this supersession addresses both types of integration, with emphasis on integrating different sources.  It considers a multilevel inverter for grid-connected PV systems, integrating wind-battery for an isolated network, fuel cell – gas turbine hybrid structure, and a combination of PV.PEM fuel cells, wind turbine, alternators and batteries for a microgrid application.  Export capability of a micro CHP system with spot price is also included in the group.
