The strengthening of electric energy security and the reduction of greenhouse gas
emissions have gained enormous momentum in previous decades. The integration of large …

Among different sources of alternate energy, wind and solar are two prominent and
promising alternatives to meet the future electricity needs for mankind. Generally, these …

Microgrid is an important component of the evolving smart-grid. It has the ability to increase
reliability, decrease costs, and enlarge penetration rates for distribution generation systems …

Fault analysis (detection, classification and location) of transmission network is of great
importance in power system. A Wavelet-Alienation-Neural (WAN) technique has been …

The fluctuated output power of the large-scale wind farms (WF) and their fault transient
characteristics have an adverse effect on the current differential protection systems of the …

To improve the performance of the conventional distance protection scheme for
compensated lines with high resistance faults, an adaptive distance protection scheme is …

Protective relays can mal-operate for transmission lines connected to doubly fed induction
generator (DFIG) based large capacity wind farms (WFs). The performance of distance …

Abstract Loss-of-excitation (LOE) conditions may cause devastating effects on both the
generator and power system. If LOE is not meticulously detected, two dangerous events may …

The high penetration of renewable energies will affect the performance of present protection
algorithms due to fault current injection from generators based on power electronics. This …

Penetration of large-scale renewables has changed the fault current characteristics,
degrading reliability of the transmission line traditional protection system. This paper …
