Achieving an optimal trade-off between power system stability/hosting capacity and energy peak by implementing demand side management in home microgrids (H-MG)s in the neighbourhood systems (Advert Reference: SF18/MPEE/MARZBAND)

Northumbria University
Faculty of Engineering and Environment

Dr M Marzband

Applications accepted all year round

I am recruiting some PhD students for a project regarding the optimal planning and operation of so many H-MGs in the neighbourhood system (with up to a few thousand customers) with the aim of hosting capacity and voltage stability improvement in the network.

Optimal Operation of Microgrids with High Penetration of Renewable Energy Sources and Energy Storage Systems

University of Bradford
Faculty of Engineering and Informatics

Research Group: Communication and Networks

Dr G Mokryani

Applications accepted all year round

The UK government’s commitment to cost-effective renewable energy as part of a diverse, low-carbon and secure energy mix requires consideration of gas and low-carbon transport fuels, nuclear power, carbon capture and storage, and renewable energy to provide energy security.

Planning and Design of Distribution Networks with Integration of Smart Grid Technologies

University of Bradford
Faculty of Engineering and Informatics

Research Group: Communication and Networks

Dr G Mokryani

Applications accepted all year round

The UK Government’s target is to achieve 15% of electricity generation from renewable energy sources (RES) by 2020. The installation of large amounts of RES in distribution networks introduces several economic and technical challenges to distribution network operators (DNOs).
