Abstract Present of wind power is sporadically and cannot be utilized as the only fundamental load of energy sources. This paper proposes a wind-solar hybrid energy storage system (HESS) to ensure a stable supply grid for a longer period. A multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) and state of charge (SOC) region division for the batteries are introduced to solve the objective function and configuration of the system capacity, respectively. MATLAB/Simulink was used for simulation test. The optimization results show that for a 0.5 MW wind power and 0.5 MW photovoltaic system, with a combination of a 300 More >

Abstract In the context of the “dual carbon” goals, to address issues such as high energy consumption, high costs, and low power quality in the rapid development of electrified railways, this study focused on the China Railways High-Speed 5 Electric Multiple Unit and proposed a mathematical model and capacity optimization method for an on-board energy storage system using lithium batteries and supercapacitors as storage media. Firstly, considering the electrical characteristics, weight, and volume of the storage media, a mathematical model of the energy storage system was established. Secondly, to tackle problems related to energy consumption and… More >

Abstract Unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) with energy storage is commonly based on conventional capacity configuration strategy with power angle control. It has problems such as phase jumping before and after compensation. DC-link cannot continuously emit active power externally. Therefore, this paper presents the compensation strategy of full load voltage magnitude and phase in capacity configuration of UPQC. The topology of UPQC is integrated a series active power filter (SAPF), a shunt active power filter (PAPF) and a photovoltaic-battery energy storage system (PV-BESS). The principle of full load voltage compensation is analyzed based on the PV-BESS-UPQC… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract As the number of electric vehicles (EVs) continues to grow and the demand for charging infrastructure is also increasing, how to improve the charging infrastructure has become a bottleneck restricting the development of EVs. In other words, reasonably planning the location and capacity of charging stations is important for development of the EV industry and the safe and stable operation of the power system. Considering the construction and maintenance of the charging station, the distribution network loss of the charging station, and the economic loss on the user side of the EV, this paper takes… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Spark is the most popular in-memory processing framework for big data analytics. Memory is the crucial resource for workloads to achieve performance acceleration on Spark. The extant memory capacity configuration approach in Spark is to statically configure the memory capacity for workloads based on user’s specifications. However, without the deep knowledge of the workload’s system-level characteristics, users in practice often conservatively overestimate the memory utilizations of their workloads and require resource manager to grant more memory share than that they actually need, which leads to the severe waste of memory resources. To address the above… More >
