This paper presents challenges in the control of 5GDHC networks and proposes an approach for the robust control design of these networks. Temperatures are low and temperature differences are small in 5GDHC networks, in order to minimise heat losses in the distribution network and directly utilise low-temperature heat sources. Therefore, the...

As more and more solar panels are installed on households, a problem arises when the power from the solar panels fluctuating throughout the day due to clouds passing over the solar panels. This in turn causes voltage flickers in the household, which can be visible/irritable to the human eye and damage appliances in the household. These voltage...

The increasing deployment of photovoltaic (PV) modules in urban environments, often prone to shading, underscores the critical importance of selecting shading-resistant modules. Unfortunately, a standardized parameter for assessing and comparing PV module performance under shading remains absent. Currently, quantifying a module's ability to...

The use of DC microgrids in combination with photovoltaic (PV) energy generation sources results in higher efficiencies by avoiding AC to DC conversion. Moreover, bipolar DC grids allow for more system flexibility and increased reliability at the cost of an additional conductor when compared to unipolar DC. However, maximum power point tracking ...

As of 2021, China's newly installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity has topped the world for nine consecutive years. Considering that the general life of crystalline silicon PV modules is 25 years, in the near future, China will face a wave of decommissioning of waste PV modules. Therefore, it is crucial to develop and improve China's PV module...

A photovoltaic (PV)-rich low-voltage (LV) distribution network poses a limit on the export power of PVs due to the voltage magnitude constraints. By defining a customer export limit, switching off the PV inverters can be avoided, and thus reducing power curtailment. Based on this, this paper proposes a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP)...
