This paper presents the development and principle of operation of resource-saving overcurrent protection, which is an alternative to traditional current protections. The experiments were used to study the electromagnetic field for the protection of e...

Electric vehicles (EVs) have emerged as the best alternative to conventional fossil fuel-based vehicles due to their lower emission rate and operating cost. The escalating growth of EVs has increased the necessity for distributed charging stations. O...

To enhance stability and reliability, multi-microgrid systems have been developed as replacements for conventional distribution networks. Traditionally, switches have been used to interconnect these microgrids, but this approach often results in unco...

This paper presents the application of quantitative and qualitative methods to assess reliability and security in urban electrical substations. The method is a visual technique based on a conceptual analysis of the different substation configurations...

The research and development of hybrid electric vehicles has become a significant goal for large automotive manufacturers. The hybrid electric vehicle integrates a conventional engine and one or more electric motors powered by a battery, offering bet...

Today’s power systems are operated closer to their stability limits due to the continuously growing load demands, interface to open markets, and integration of more renewable energies. In order to provide operators with clear insight on the cur...

Combining wind and hydropower facilities makes it possible to solve the problems caused by power supply shortages in areas that are remote from the central energy system. Hydropower plants and highly manoeuvrable hydroelectric units successfully comp...

Clean transition increases the demand for reliable electricity distribution, but while the capacity can be improved through investments, responding to the demand increases costs for the customers. This study presents a methodological improvement to t...

This study presents a new charging system with lattice compensation for wireless power transfer (WPT) applications. A mathematical model is developed for the proposed system to accurately estimate power transfer capabilities. Furthermore, a linear pr...

This work introduces a boost converter with quadratic gain. Its main advantage compared to well-known similar quadratic boost converters is that it requires capacitors with a relatively small capacitance and inductors with small inductance, leading t...
