  • Analysis and optimal sizing of an energy storage system for wind farm applications

    Creator:
    Yen, Zuan Z.
    Abstract:
    Modern wind energy is the technology of choice with a short payback period for increasing renewable energy portfolios. Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), a United States power authority in the Pacific Northwest expects to increase their wind energy capacity from 2,000 megawatts to 6,000 megawatts within the next five years. Currently...

  • 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...
