This article introduces emissions response, the widespread use of real-time emissions factors in electricity grids as a signal for a dynamic response to facilitate decarbonization and system efficiency. Many publications have suggested dynamic approaches to addressing systemwide emissions, reducing emissions…
Degradation of energy capacity and energy efficiency of lithium-ion battery energy storage systems depend on their operation conditions and are key factors in their business case feasibility. Using traditional energy reservoir models with energy throughput methods to quantify degradation leads…
In this paper, a new deep learning-based two-stage dataset-clustering/temporal-clustering method is proposed for time aggregation in renewable energy-integrated power systems. In this way, for the first time, the representative period, including one or more representative days, is obtained using a…
The integration of wind energy into the power grid has been on the rise, becoming an increasingly important source of electricity. However, the intermittency of wind energy output, particularly the wind power ramps (the rate at which wind energy output…
This paper proposes a hybrid deep actor-critic framework for the optimal operation of a phase-changing soft open point (PCSOP) in an unbalanced distribution network. The framework combines algorithmic features of off-policy reinforcement learning and imitation learning. The proposed method comprises…
This IEEE paper, ‘Demand Charge Management Based on Battery Aggregation of Commercial and Passenger Electric Fleet Vehicles’, proposes a load management platform to help industrial and commercial electricity customers assess the feasibility of demand charge management through battery aggregation of…
Wholesale electricity markets are designing market participation models for hybrid resources that consist of energy storage and generation. This IEEE paper investigates the strategy behind two proposed market-participation models of a hybrid resource. The first is co-located hybrid resource, where…
Harnessing Grid Integration Opportunities for Accelerated Adoption: This paper proposes a multistage investment planning framework for the fleet transition problem, with a particular focus on the capacity of the electric fleet’s aggregated battery to generate revenue for the fleet owner…
This research proposes an investigative experiment employing binary classification for short-term electricity price spike forecasting. Price spikes are unexpected and abrupt extreme prices whose value can be several orders of magnitude higher than normal electricity prices. Moreover, due to their stochastic…
The U.S.-Canada Center on Climate-Resilient Western Interconnected Grid brings together leading experts in power engineering, climate, forestry, data analysis, policy and social sciences from a network of 35 partners. This new interdisciplinary center is aimed at fortifying the region’s power…
The University of Calgary and the University of Utah will establish and co-lead the U.S.-Canada Center on Climate-Resilient Western Interconnected Grid through $5M funding by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) and $3.75M funding by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research…
