Optimal power flow solution with current injection model of generalized interline power flow controller using ameliorated ant lion optimization
Optimal power flow (OPF) solutions with generalized interline power flow controller (GIPFC) devices play an imperative role in enhancing the power system's performance. This paper used a novel ant lion optimization (ALO) algorithm which is amalgamated with Lévy flight operator, and an effectual algorithm is proposed named as, ameliorated ant lion optimization (AALO) algorithm. It is being implemented to solve single objective OPF problem with the latest flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) controller named as GIPFC. GIPFC can control a couple of transmission lines concurrently and it also helps to control the sending end voltage. In this paper, current injection modeling of GIPFC is being incorporated in conventional Newton-Raphson (NR) load flow to improve voltage of the buses and focuses on minimizing the considered objectives such as generation fuel cost, emissions, and total power losses by fulfilling equality, in-equality. For optimal allocation of GIPFC, a novel Lehmann-Symanzik-Zimmermann (LSZ) approach is considered. The proposed algorithm is validated on single benchmark test functions such as Sphere, Rastrigin function then the proposed algorithm with GIPFC has been testified on standard IEEE-30 bus system

Identification of Surface Defects on Solar PV Panels and Wind Turbine Blades using Attention based Deep Learning Model
According to Global Electricity Review 2022, electricity generation from
renewable energy sources has increased by 20% worldwide primarily due to more
installation of large green power plants. Monitoring the renewable energy
assets in those large power plants is still challenging as the assets are
highly impacted by several environmental factors, resulting in issues like less
power generation, malfunctioning, and degradation of asset life. Therefore,
detecting the surface defects on the renewable energy assets would facilitate
the process to maintain the safety and efficiency of the green power plants. An
innovative detection framework is proposed to achieve an economical renewable
energy asset surface monitoring system. First capture the asset's
high-resolution images on a regular basis and inspect them to detect the
damages. For inspection this paper presents a unified deep learning-based image
inspection model which analyzes the captured images to identify the surface or
structural damages on the various renewable energy assets in large power
plants. We use the Vision Transformer (ViT), the latest developed deep-learning
model in computer vision, to detect the damages on solar panels and wind
turbine blades and classify the type of defect to suggest the preventive
measures. With the ViT model, we have achieved above 97% accuracy for both the
assets, which outperforms the benchmark classification models for the input
images of varied modalities taken from publicly available sources
Machine Learning as an Accurate Predictor for Percolation Threshold of Diverse Networks
The percolation threshold is an important measure to determine the inherent
rigidity of large networks. Predictors of the percolation threshold for large
networks are computationally intense to run, hence it is a necessity to develop
predictors of the percolation threshold of networks, that do not rely on
numerical simulations. We demonstrate the efficacy of five machine
learning-based regression techniques for the accurate prediction of the
percolation threshold. The dataset generated to train the machine learning
models contains a total of 777 real and synthetic networks. It consists of 5
statistical and structural properties of networks as features and the
numerically computed percolation threshold as the output attribute. We
establish that the machine learning models outperform three existing empirical
estimators of bond percolation threshold, and extend this experiment to predict
site and explosive percolation. Further, we compared the performance of our
models in predicting the percolation threshold using RMSE values. The gradient
boosting regressor, multilayer perceptron and random forests regression models
achieve the least RMSE values among considered models
A Resilient Power Distribution System using P2P Energy Sharing
The adoption of distributed energy resources (DERs) such as solar panels and
wind turbines is transforming the traditional energy grid into a more
decentralized system, where microgrids are emerging as a key concept.
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) energy sharing in microgrids enhances the efficiency and
flexibility of the overall system by allowing the exchange of surplus energy
and better management of energy resources. This work analyzes the impact of P2P
energy sharing for three cases - within a microgrid, with neighboring
microgrids, and all microgrids combined together in a distribution system. A
standard IEEE 123 node test feeder integrated with renewable energy sources is
partitioned into microgrids. For P2P energy sharing between microgrids, the
results show significant benefits in cost, reduced energy dependence on the
grid, and a significant improvement in the system's resilience. We also
predicted the energy requirement for a microgrid to evaluate energy resilience
for the control and operation of the microgrid. Overall, the analysis provides
valuable insights into the performance and sustainability of microgrids with
P2P energy sharing.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2212.0231

categorization serves as a foundation for identifying the existing constraints
and future research avenues in the domain of arc fault detection for electrical
distribution systems. This review paper provides the state of the art in arc
fault detection, aiming to enhance safety and reliability in electrical
distribution systems and guide future research efforts
Modelling of the Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure as Cyber Physical Power Systems: A Review on Components, Standards, Vulnerabilities and Attacks
The increasing number of electric vehicles (EVs) has led to the growing need
to establish EV charging infrastructures (EVCIs) with fast charging
capabilities to reduce congestion at the EV charging stations (EVCS) and also
provide alternative solutions for EV owners without residential charging
facilities. The EV charging stations are broadly classified based on i) where
the charging equipment is located - on-board and off-board charging stations,
and ii) the type of current and power levels - AC and DC charging stations. The
DC charging stations are further classified into fast and extreme fast charging
stations. This article focuses mainly on several components that model the EVCI
as a cyberphysical system (CPS)
