I'am very happy to have attended workshop on designing wind energy systems, which is one of the most important areas of renewable energy, with Mithaq Al-Ilm Academy for Training and Development, the Young Engineers Committee and Electrical Media The workshop presented a number of important topics on the design and construction of projects from a theoretical and practical 

In this AEIC (Association of Edison Illuminating Companies) Grid Mod Pod episode, we’re excited to be joined by Kevin DeGraw, Vice President of Renewable Projects at Ameren. Kevin is also the chairman of our Power Generation Committee. Here’s what you’ll learn when you listen in: -Why it's important for those involved in the "four pillars" (generation, distribution, transmission, and storage) to work together around grid modernization -An overview of how the Power Generation Committee is structured, who can get involved, and what members can take away from it -How vendors can use the Power Generation Committee to improve product performance -Why the Committee is currently focused on personnel safety and integrating renewable energy sources -Why learning as much as possible can help utility workers develop a more holistic perspective https://lnkd.in/eJWnGUgj

The webinar will delve into the engineering and cost advantages of spacer cable for solar farms, battery energy storage systems and wind farm applications. During this webinar, you'll have the opportunity to: Gain insights into the engineering benefits of using aerial spacer cable in renewable energy medium voltage collection systems. Learn how spacer cable requires fewer collector circuits, resulting in more real estate for solar panels and turbines. Understand the scenarios where spacer cable systems are especially well-suited for solving power distribution problems at facilities where terrain, man-made installations, and other environmental factors create significant challenges.

On the way to 2024 PCIC Energy Europe Conference! Curious about the challenges in designing the next Petrobras FPSO units? Check my presentation next Thursday! https://lnkd.in/dDusqWbQ Abstract - To reduce Greenhouse Gases (GHG) emission, All Electric FPSO solution has been designed considering dynamic equipment driven by electric motors. The next challenge is to supply the large electric power demand at deep water and far from shore locations and, at the same time, reduce the power generation emissions responsible for 60-70 % of the total unit emissions. In this scenario, a high capacity FPSO with a combined cycle power generation plant is being designed to supply the FPSO 130 MW power demand. Variable Speed Drives (VSD’s) were considered for the large electric motors to enable motor starting, besides the speed control. This paper studies the technical challenges related to designing the electric power system with combined cycle for this offshore production unit and presents the analysis and topology to accomplish technical feasibility for the electric power system.

The document titled "Application of Power Electronics Converters in Smart Grids and Renewable Energy Systems" seems to be a special issue, focusing on the integration of power electronics converters within smart grids and renewable energy systems.

Hey Connections... With great pleasure, I am happy to share that my research article, "Enhanced Proportional Resonant – Second-Order General Integrators (EPR-SOGI) With Fuzzy Logic Control in Hybrid Renewable Energy Source-Based STATCOM," has been published in the Taylor & Francis (Electric Power Components and Systems). #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking

Ever wonder what is really “system strength”? 🤔 How does it impact large-scale integration of Renewable Energy Sources in the electrical grid? How to quantify/monitor it and what technological solutions exists to maintain a sufficient level? 📊 Stay tuned for the upcoming article that will attempt to bring lights on these questions 💡 https://lnkd.in/eMJUh_bE

I Attended a technical topic webinar from Engineering Institute of Technology titled: An Introduction to Battery Energy Storage Systems and Their Power System Support. The challenges posed by the intermittent nature of renewable energy resources, particularly in wind and PV power plants, present significant obstacles for countries with substantial installations of such energy sources. For instance, during peak power generation periods, an excess of generated power from renewable sources beyond load demand can lead to power system overload, triggering protection devices. An effective solution to this issue is incorporating energy storage systems. This webinar aimed to elucidate various energy storage systems, primarily focusing on battery energy storage systems. It comprehensively reviewed diverse battery technologies, comparing their respective features. Additionally, provided a concise examination of power electronic converters, essential for linking battery energy storage systems to the grid. Finally, the webinar delved into an overview of different grid support functions, including virtual inertia, peak shaving, and time shifting.

Renewable energy resources is an alternative to augmenting the energy supply of floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) platforms. In this context the recent paper published in Eletrônica de Potência (Open Journal of Power Electronics) highlights the combined frequency-voltage-var control performance to mitigate frequency variation in a typical FPSO unit with penetration of floating wind energy generation. The control functions are communication-free and embedded in the active front-end variable frequency drives (AFE-VFDs), which are installed on the FPSO and have the primary function of controlling the speed of water injection pump.
