Abstract
DG have a wide applications on the EDSs or on consumers site to enhancement the operation characteristics of EDSs. These DGs are rated from 5 kW to 50 MW depending on the local EDS conditions, the reliability and economy of the DG. Also, renewable energy sources can be operated as a DG on EDSs. So, in this thesis, wind generators (WGs) are suggested to be operated as a DG on EDSs. Therefore, number of models and approaches are introduced here to assess the generation of different wind generator modes (WGMs), optimizing this generation from technical and economical points of view at the considered site and evaluate the impact of dispersed these generators on the operation of EDSs. Also, these models and approaches are applied numerically to assess and optimizing the generation of different WGMs at Mersi-Matrough site on the Egyptian coast of Mediterranean sea using modern optimization techniques (GA and PSO) in addition to the conventional LP technique. Then, the impact of dispersed these generators on the operation of EDS of Mersi-Matrough city in terms of voltage profiles, active and reactive power losses are evaluated. So, this thesis includes four chapters in addition to the introduction, conclusions and list of references. The following are the summary of the six chapters of this thesis:
Chapter 1: This chapter includes the historical review of the topics of the thesis, detailed of the exist and future wind energy projects in Egypt, in addition to a brief summary on the chapters of this thesis.
Chapter 2: A proposed approach has been introduced in this chapter. This approach includes two models. The first model is used to assess the generation of different WGMs at the installation site, while the other is to optimize this generation from technical and economical points of view. These models are applied to develop the optimal and most suitable WGM of 100, 300, 600, 850 and 1500 kW- WGMs to operate as a DG on the EDS of Mersi-Matrough city.
Chapter 3: in this chapter, number of locations are suggested to dispersed the optimal and most suitable WGM obtained in the previous chapter on the EDS of Mersi-Matrough city. These locations are the substation, the closed loop of the distribution feeders and one or more of feeders of this EDS. Considering the load supplied by the EDS of Mersi-Matrough city and the PL of the DWGs, the load flow in this EDS feeders, the number and energy supplied of DWGs are determined at the suggested locations on this EDS. Then, the GA and PSO techniques in addition to LP technique are studied and applied to assess the impact of DWGs on the operation of the study EDS in the following chapters.
Chapter 4: In this chapter a survey on different optimization techniques are introduced. These techniques include modern optimization techniques such as genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique, tabu search (TS), ant colony (AC) and simulated annealing (SA), and conventional optimization techniques such as linear programming (LP), integer programming (IP) and dynamic programming (DP).
Chapter (5): In this chapter two modern optimization techniques are proposed to obtain the best location and PL of DWG units to be inserted in the EDS of Mersi-Matrough city that achieve the different system constraints. These techniques are GA and PSO, The results is confirmed by LP as a conventional technique using three single objective functions (voltage index VI, active power loss index APLI and reactive power loss index RPLI). Multiobjective function is also applied to achieve the three objective functions simultaneously dependent on the choice of their weighting factors which have been optimized by trial and error. The proposed techniques has applied to subsets of DG benefits, which are voltage improvement (VI%), active power loss reduction (APLI%) and reactive power loss reduction (RPLI%).
Chapter (6): the main conclusions of the thesis and recommendations are included in this chapter.
