    The use of renewable energy has become popular due to the effect's fossil fuels have on the environment and their scarcity. Temperature, voltage across the array's terminals, and radiation all affect the output power of solar photovoltaic systems. This work proposes an enhance fixed step-size Perturb & Observe (P&O) Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT). This widely used MPPT approach record the change in electrical energy by perturbing the operating point of the PV array. Tracking a photovoltaic module's excellent power point can increase solar energy conversion efficiency. This study uses a DC-DC Boost converter to simulate and produce an 859 W solar photo-voltaic array connected with an external resistive load P&O MPPT approach. Result provides the 99.9% power efficiency; therefore, overall system efficiency is more significant and indicating good performance.

    Present time, Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) has become more attractive due to their real time observation of the power system. The high installation cost of PMUs restricts their installation at all sites in the power system for measurement and monitoring purposes. For reduction in number of PMUs, researchers propose various Optimal PMU Placement (OPP) techniques, which provide the optimal location with complete power system observability. In a large geographic spread power system has many OPP locations. The high installation and communication costs hinder PMU installation at OPP sites at a time. Therefore, the OPP is required in a strategic way. This paper proposes a strategic approach for OPP in power systems. The proposed approach considers the two conditional parameters namely Degree of Connectivity (DOC) and Shortest Path Distance (SPD). The approach provides the hierarchy of optimal installation and finally generates a best-suited path for PMU installation. The proposed approach is verified with IEEE-14 and IEEE-30 bus system and it is found satisfactory.
  • Advances in Offshore Wind Turbine Systems: A Technical Review
    Shaaz Rizvi, Satyendra Pratap Singh, Rachna Tyagi
    2024 IEEE Flagship International BIT Conference Next Generation Applications in Green Energy Technology Bitcon 2024, 2024
    In this paper, offshore wind energy has been discussed in brief with their importance as compare to other renewable energy sources. Harnessing of the wind offshore become an important opportunity for sustainable renewable energy source. Therefore, industries and researchers are working in this area. Offshore wind energy is more potent and constant in offshore locations due to the absence of impediments. To effectively conventional energy sources, it's crucial to understand the physics behind the movement of offshore wind turbines, along with various design strategies and analytical methods. This paper reviews the latest progress in floating offshore wind turbine technology, highlighting new designs, challenges, and future opportunities. It summarizes current research and innovations while discussing ongoing issues and next steps for the industry.
  • CVR Implementation and VVO Control in Smart Distribution Systems: A Literature Survey
    Rachna Tyagi, Satyendra Pratap Singh, Shailendra Singh, Gajendra Teli, Divya Meena
    2024 IEEE Flagship International BIT Conference Next Generation Applications in Green Energy Technology Bitcon 2024, 2024
    This study examines the implementation of Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) technology in an intelligent energy distribution network. It also investigates the evaluation of CVR using an Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) that integrates a Voltage Var Optimization (VVO) control strategy. The primary goal of this approach is to minimize active power losses in the distribution network while enhancing the performance of On-Load Tap Changers (OLTC), Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR), and capacitor banks. This research aims to provide valuable insights for researchers and power engineers regarding CVR technology and its applications in distribution systems. Additionally, the study highlights the potential benefits of CVR in improving energy efficiency and reducing overall power consumption. The findings can contribute to the development of more sustainable and cost-effective power distribution strategies.
