<![CDATA[In this paper, a structural decomposition analysis based on an input-output framework has been developed to examine the factors, which affect the economy-wide CO 2 emission changes due to the introduction of carbon tax in the Indonesian power sector during 2011-2030. There are three major components that affect the total economy-wide change in CO 2 emissions, i.e., fuel mix-, structural-, and final demand- effects. The results show that, the CO 2 mitigation under the carbon tax of US$200/tC would be 20.5 times higher than that with the carbon tax rate of US$5/tC. The fuel mix effect is found to be most influential in reducing the CO 2 emission during the planning horizon under all of the carbon tax rates considered and is followed by the final demand- and structural-effects.]]>

<![CDATA[This study analyses the CO2 emission implications of considering energy tax in power sector planning for the case of Indonesia. There are four energy tax rates considered in this study i.e. US$0.5/MBtu, US$1.0/MBtu, US$2.0/MBtu and US$5/MBtu. Furthermore, this study also analyses the decomposition of the economy-wide CO2 emission changes due to the carbon tax rates by using an input-output model. The implications of energy tax on utility planning would bring the sytem more efficient because more energy efficient technology power plants, such as CCGT, would be selected, while in the case of environmental implications, CO2 emissions would be reduced. The results show that there is a significant change in the annual CO2 emissions if energy tax rate of US$5/MBtu is introduced. There are three major components that affect the total economy-wide change in CO2 emissions, i.e., fuel mix-, structural-, and final demand- effects. The results show that the fuel mix effect is found to be most influential in reducing the CO2 emission during the planning horizon under all of the energy tax rates considered and is followed by the final demand- and structural-effects.]]>

<![CDATA[Electricity supply has gained importance with the increase of electricity demand in the world. The energy that the sun can accept forever provides great convenience for electricity generation. In regions where the suns rays are steep, it is easier to generate electricity from the solar energy, whereas in regions where the suns rays are horizontal, the electricity production from the solar energy remains at a lower level. In this study, Istanbul and Adana are compared in the northern and southern regions of Turkey. These two cities were examined for daily sunshine periods, daily and monthly radiation amounts. The effects of air temperatures and sunshine durations on the average radiation amounts have been investigated. The province of Adana has an annual total of 1568.49 kWh, whereas the province of Istanbul has a total of 1327 kWh radiation. When the annual sunshine periods are examined, it is 97.13 hours in Adana and 78.99 hours in Istanbul. It is seen that less electricity production can be done year round in Istanbul province and the hourly production is more than that in Adana when compared to sunrise times. When the average annual temperatures are examined, Adana province is 19 °C and Istanbul province is 13.8 °C. Although the province of Istanbul has a lower average temperature, it has been found that it has a higher yield than the province of Adana.]]>

<![CDATA[A primary requirement of a modern electric power system is reasonable ability to satisfy the customer load requirements. Electric utilities involve generation, transmission, and distribution facilities each one of which contributes its own inherent difficulties to the problem of satisfying customer requirement. A power system should be designed and expanded the facilities in order to perform its intended function with a reasonable risk. With increasing the electrical energy demand and the potential of disruption that may occur in the system, the distribution system must have high reliability and continues supply to customer. In this case, the reliability of the distribution system needs to be evaluated by monitoring and analyzing the level of distribution system failure in a certain period of time. A study on a practical distribution system with application of automatic circuit reclosers (ACRs) which plays an important role in enhancing the reliability index of system is presented. The reliability index assessment analyze the reliability index of the existing system before and after application of ACRs. From the simulation point of view, the system average interruption frequency index (SAIFI) is about 19.43% or decreased the failure frequent event from 11.4 failure/ customer.year to 9.25 failure/customer.year); while the momentary average interruption frequency index (MAIFI) has decreased from 6.72 failure/customer.year to 5.05 failure/ customer.year, or increase the reliability index of about 24.85%.]]>

<![CDATA[Electrification of the transportation is taking place at an accelerated rate. Even though, electric vehicles (EV) evidently bring numerous environmental and economic benefits, their impact on power systems should not be overlooked. It has been identified that EV load characteristics can significantly affect power system voltage stability and small signal stability. Hence, it is important to consider mitigating of stability impacts right from the planning stage of bulk EV charging stations. However, unavailability of suitable stability evaluating indexes that could fit into planning algorithms is a hindrance. This study proposes two computationally efficient indexes to compare stability status in different planning options. The developed indexes have been tested, verified and utilized in a multi objective planning algorithm to identify a comprehensive solution, which satisfies the grid operator, EV customer and the charging facility investor optimally. ]]>

<![CDATA[Indonesia is blessed with abundant renewable energy resources. Nevertheless, they have only been used to cover about 5% of the total national energy demand. To optimize their utilization, the government has to make and implement a policy that will encourage PLN costumers to help increase their on-grid power supply capacity. This policy will provide benefits for islands that are already equipped with PLN power grids. This paper uses Solar Power Plants and household costumers as models to calculate potential on-grid power increase which can be contributed by PLN costumers. A two-way power meter is used to replace the currently used one. This model will be applied to the conventional grid to demonstrate the compatibility that show how it is applicable even without upgrading the conventional grid to become smart grid system. The result shows that customers can participate significantly through the flow of their excess energy to grid]]>

<![CDATA[The dependency of relying on switching power supplies is increasing and in more demand these days to present superior efficiency as itâs compared to conventional linear power supplies. The main target in any type of photovoltaic power system is to increase the efficiency rate of the PV arrays; and as a result power systems that depend on a set of PV arrays have a priority to track the maximum power point MPP to extract the ultimate maximum power from the set of arrays. One of their important characteristics is the ability to provide step-up in the form of Boost converters, step-down in the form of buck converters, and utilized in the sense of inverting. In this research paper we will delineate a sector of the various sort of switching regulators used in dc-dc conversion especially the boost converter. In addition a review of the control techniques for these converters were touched based.]]>

<![CDATA[Solar and renewable plants are increasingly being added to national grids. One technical drawback of renewable generators is that they tend to cause a significant harmonic distortion of the current and voltage waveforms. The harmonic distortions are amplified when the natural resonances of the grid interact with the injected harmonics from the power electronic based PV generation. A sustained harmonic distortion can lead to equipment failure, reduced plant output or a complete plant shutdown. Therefore, it is important to study harmonic interactions and resonance issues using fully detailed EMT models before the commissioning of a renewable plant. This paper outlines important features of modelling solar converters for the use of harmonic and resonance studies.]]>
