Distortions of current and voltage waveforms from a sinusoidal shape are, not only a source
of technical problems, but also have serious economic effects. Their occurrence is related to …

The quality of electrical energy is of particular importance for power engineering. This study
presents an analysis of articles made in the Special Issue “Analysis and Experiments for …

Abstract The importance of Power Quality (PQ) issues in modern power systems has been
growing in the last years. Capacitors are employed for optimizing network losses and …

A high monetary value of the construction projects is one of the reasons of frequent disputes
between a general contractor (GC) and a client. A construction site is a unique, one-time …

Utilization of active power filters (APFs) is the most efficient method to reduce harmonic
pollution in distribution networks. Previous approaches utilized APFs in integrated control …

In this paper, shunt active power filter (SAPF) is designed to address the problem of current
harmonics in the source current arising from a nonlinear load and improve the quality of …

Current trends in the use of energy storage, electric mobility, and the integration of a large
number of distributed generations at the distribution level can have positive effects on …

Waveform distortions are one of the most diffused Power Quality disturbances and are
nowadays gaining a growing interest by the researchers of modern smart grids where a …

The reduction of harmonics in terms of improving power quality is usually achieved using
passive or active filters. Due to their advantages over passive filters, active power filters …

Constant increase of electricity demand and integrated renewable energy sources in the
grid results in harmonic distortions which can impair power quality (PQ). This paper …
