Journal ArticleDOI

A Survey of Communications and Networking Technologies for Energy Management in Buildings and Home Automation

TL;DR: This paper presents some popular DR and DSM initiatives that include planning, implementation and evaluation techniques for reducing energy consumption and peak electricity demand, and outlines directions for promoting the shift towards a society with low energy demand and low greenhouse gas emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Incorporating Temperature Variations Into Transmission-Line Models

TL;DR: In this paper, a transmission-line modeling approach that incorporates available ambient temperature information is discussed, and several proposed line modeling techniques are studied and include distributed and lumped parameter models, in order to capture the nonuniformity of line parameters caused by temperature gradients.
Journal ArticleDOI

System Impacts of Temperature-Dependent Transmission Line Models

TL;DR: In this article, a line model characterized by multiple non-uniform segments is used to capture nonuniformity of line parameters caused by ambient temperature gradients, and the impacts of temperature variations are investigated with respect to line terminal behavior (bus voltage) and maximum power transfer characteristics.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Grid impacts and mitigation measures for increased PV penetration levels using advanced PV inverter regulation

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential impacts on representative distribution feeders for a south-eastern utility that is facing the interconnection of increasing levels of photovoltaic (PV) generation are performed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Increasing penetration of Distributed Generation with meshed operation of distribution systems

TL;DR: In this article, a meshed operation of distribution systems is investigated to accommodate the increasing penetration levels of Distributed Generation (DG), and a methodology that determines maximum DG penetration level based on bus voltage and line current constraints is described.
