Balancing between competition and coordination in smart grids - a Common Information Platform (CIP)

5G-Based Information Platform Design of Tourist Attractions in the Context of Mobile Big Data

“…rough simulation experiments, number theory transformation (NTT) verified that the use of NOMA technology in urban areas can increase the total throughput of wireless access macrocells by about 50% [18]. NOMA technology can increase the spectral efficiency of weak-signal mobile users by about 48%, and the spectral efficiency of strong-signal mobile users by about 32% [19].…”

Estimating the impacts of natural gas power generation growth on solar electricity development: PJM's evolving resource mix and ramping capability

“…In conclusion, our results suggest that decision makers and policy authorities should carefully evaluate the potential complementarity and distributional values of flexible distributed resources when considering how and when to deploy them in the grid for greater societal benefits best‐practices‐through to successful electricity market transformations. In addition to increasing grid‐connected DERs and flexible gas‐fired systems, investment in PV‐battery‐electric grid‐based energy systems for optimum grid reliability and availability can help lower electricity costs, when variables such as varying electricity tariff are taken into consideration (Brandstätt et al, 2017; Nyangon, 2021). In respect of economic performance, this requires developing grid configurations that improve system resiliency and reliability through safe islanding operation and adaptive relay setting in case of an electrical outage or blackout (Cossent, 2013).…”

“…These studies have focused on improving system efficiency, competitiveness, and installed generating capacity Example from the extant literature includes hybrid NG‐RE‐powered generating systems (e.g., Xu et al, 2017), analysis of efficiency and distributional effects of electricity rate designs and grid support services under high DERs penetration (Byrne et al, 2022; Byrne & Taminiau, 2016; Zhang & Giannakis, 2016), regulatory policy innovations (e.g., Carley et al, 2018), and diversified utility customer choice and generation mix (Stewart, 2020; e.g., Nyangon & Byrne, 2018). Similar studies include expanding rooftop solar PV development (e.g., Byrne & Taminiau, 2018), investigating sociotechnical dynamics of energy transitions (e.g., Choi et al, 2020; Jenkins et al, 2018; Sovacool, 2017; Turnheim & Sovacool, 2020), and promoting integrated coordination of electric and NG power systems (Jiang et al, 2018; e.g., Brandstätt et al, 2017). Additionally, Jenner et al (2012) assessed the drivers of RE electricity generation at the state level, including market structure and existence of solar energy associations, while Lee and Zhong (2015) investigated policy effectiveness of net‐metering mechanisms for distributed solar PV systems.…”

“…This growth rate is higher than the national average. As market integration of distributed PV improves across the PJM territory, electric power operators need to address complex economic and T&D infrastructure challenges inherent in promoting coordination and competition of DERs and other complementary alternatives like energy storage and flexible NG‐fired plants to improve electric grid system reliability and electricity market design (Brandstätt et al, 2017). Furthermore, as the transition to net‐zero and low‐carbon power systems continues, locations suitable for PV siting may become scarce or more difficult to access, further necessitating the need for joint siting and coordination of RE and NG markets.…”

Modeling coordination between renewables and grid: Policies to mitigate distribution grid constraints using residential PV-battery systems

“…Smart grids could allow for efficient distribution grid pricing. Brandstätt et al (2017) suggests a solution to the issue of non-discriminatory data availability, which is one of the central prerequisites for reaping their full potential.…”
