    Automatic control of renewable energy sources at varying load

    No full text
    With the current climate crisis with the global temperature increasing due to fossil fuels being used there are big investments in green energy. Wind power is a good alternative to fossil fueled power and already has a widespread use. One of the problems with wind poweris control and keeping the grid frequency stable during peaks and lows of power generation. In this master thesis there is a goal to implement a system which can regulate wind mills while always trying to use as much wind power as possible. A model was built in Matlab to represent the final product which was translated into a SCADA system. A fully integrated communication from SCADA computer to PLC to IED to wind mill and back was built. The simulation in the SCADA system gave satisfactory result where the wind power wasutilized to the maximum, and other conditions met. The laboratory experiment with an Arduino represented as the wind mill lacked in communication and the model did not achieveperfect results in every case. There is future work to be done, improved communication, additional or alternative automatic control and creating a bigger system with several powerproducers integrated

    Electric Bike : Independent Project in Electrical Engineering

    A group project has been made in which the goal was to build an electric bike. The main focus of the project was to build the surrounding control system of a BLDC motor. A complete BLDC hub motor was purchased. The wheel managed to spin forward but it was never implemented on a bike due to time constraints. This was a rewarding and educational project that can be replicated or improved for future students
