  • Residential load simulation and applied load management strategies

    Creator:
    McArthur, Shaun
    Abstract:
    This work presents a residential load simulation framework that allows the user to test the effectiveness of peak reduction, peak shifting, and valley filling load management strategies on a representative residential load prior to physical smart sensor and load control deployment. The simulation methodology uses household occupancy, appliance time-of-use, and...

  • Methods for evaluating the impact of renewable resource variability on grid operation and planning

    Creator:
    Halamay, Douglas A.
    Abstract:
    With the recent interest in increasing the penetration of renewable energy sources onto the power grid, there has been an unprecedented rapid deployment of wind generation, especially in the US Pacific Northwest. While wind farm developers have continued to expand their operations, power system operators are left to deal with...

  • A linear test bed for characterizing the performance of ocean wave energy converters

    Creator:
    Hogan, Peter M.
    Abstract:
    Determining the performance characteristics of various ocean wave energy converters (OWEC) has proven to be difficult due to problems replicating a baseline motion profile in the ocean or wave tank to compare these devices. The linear test bed seeks to mechanically simulate the relative linear motion between the active components...
