The term smart grid refers to a modernization of the electrical network consisting in the
integration of various technologies such as dispersed generation, dispatchable loads …

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are popular for their reliability and zero fuel costs. However, only
around 20% of solar energy is converted into electricity, while the remainder is dissipated as …

In this paper, future distribution network operation is discussed under assumption of
multimicrogrids (MMGs) concept. The economic operation of MMGs is formulated as an …

In this paper, a combination of Geographic Information System (GIS) and the Analytical
Hierarchy Process (AHP) has been done to assess the capacity of Eastern Morocco to host …

Due to the intermittent characteristics of wind and solar distributed energy resources and
moreover, uncertainties in the power demand, the conventional power-flow methods could …

The performance of photovoltaic modules is influenced by solar spectrum even under the
same solar irradiance conditions. Spectral factor (SF) is a useful index indicating the ratio of …

The probabilistic power flow (PPF) of active distribution networks and microgrids based on
the conventional power flow algorithms is almost impossible or at least cumbersome …

In this work, the seasonality and performance loss rates of eleven grid-connected
photovoltaic (PV) systems of different technologies were evaluated through seasonal …

Low-cost upgraded metallurgical grade silicon (UMG-Si) with inherent boron (B) and
phosphorus (P) compensation is a novel material for photovoltaic application. This paper …

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged in a “catfish effect” of other established
photovoltaic technologies with the rapid development of high-power conversion efficiency …
