[511 Royall - Reagan / Ferguson House]
No full textThis modest, center-passage dwelling presents another good illustration of how many late 19th century homeowners applied stylistic ornamentation to a vernacular house form. This 1-story frame residence has a front-facing gable extension and porch with turned-wood columns and jigsawn brackets, all of which are suggestive of the Queen Anne style. Rear additions are not only relatively unobtrusive to the building’s original appearance, but they also reflect the property’s physical evolution and are important architectural features. John H. Reagan built this house in the 1880s for his daughter, Bettie Reagan Ferguson, and his son-in-law, Alexander Ferguson. Mr. Ferguson was postmaster of Palestine from 1886-1890. The dwelling was later the home of the couple’s daughter, Bess Ferguson, who taught in the Palestine schools and was a librarian at the Palestine Public Library
Highly Compact Partial Power Converter for a Highly Efficient PV-BESS Stacked Generation System
No full textThe inherently intermittent nature of photovoltaic (PV) energy has brought increasing interest towards the integration between PV sources and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). In this paper, a Series Partial Power Processing (PPP) converter based on Capacitive Power Transfer (CPT) is proposed to integrate PV and BESS in a grid-connected inverter system. The proposed converter has been simulated according to a PV string capable to provide 1430 W under full irradiance conditions, a BESS nominal voltage equal to 215 V and a solar inverter assumed to operate with a minimum voltage of 150 V and a maximum current of 10 A. Simulation tests carried out at different conditions of solar radiation and required load power aim at demonstrating the correct operation of the proposed system.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.DC systems, Energy conversion & Storag

The Bookshelf for Boys and Girls, Volume 2
No full textSixteen fables of Aesop and a few other fables start off this volume. The editor of these versions is not acknowledged. The illustrations are a third set for Aesop by Kurt Wiese (Favorite Stories, 1942; Jacobs' The Fables of Aesop, 1950/62). The frontispiece is a strong full-page colored depiction of FC by Bess B. Cleveland. I believe that I have seen it somewhere else as frontispiece, but I cannot place it. Compare the smaller version of the same illustration in The Home University Bookshelf, Volume III, 380 (1945).

Optimising BESS Control Strategies for Congestion and Price Arbitrage
No full textRenewable energy generation projects are often measured by their peak capacity. A wind farm rated at 25 MW will generate 25 MW of power under the right circumstances. This peak capacity is reached very little in practice. However, these generators are forced to purchase grid operation infrastructure that can handle this peak generation event. The high voltage grid connections are expensive and increasingly difficult to receive permits for. This work presents a solution in which the high voltage grid connection is undersized in comparison to the renewable energy generator. A battery energy storage system is installed in the local grid to solve the issue of excess energy generation (congestion).A simulation of the local network has been built that models a battery energy storage system (BESS), the network and uses data from a solar park. A case study in which a 19 MW solar park is connected to the high voltage grid with a transformer of only 14 MW as well as a 14 MW | 30 MWh BESS on the network is investigated in the rest of the work. Furthermore a BESS control strategy for price arbitrage on the TenneT imbalance market is presented and encoded such that it can be optimised.Four heuristics are presented that time and size the congestion issue in a manner the control strategy of the BESS can prepare for and solve congestion when necessary. These heuristics are tested against strategies optimized for revenue maximisation through price arbitrage. While the most aggressive strategies did not solve all the congestion events in these simulations, we found that the heuristic that takes the average generation of the solar park into account performs the best while remaining appropriately conservative.A basic evolutionary algorithm is presented that optimizes a BESS control strategy for price arbitrage when the BESS is not needed on the local network to solve congestion. Although the strategies earn ~33% less revenue due to the congestion related limitations, the optimisation surrounding congestion does improve revenue by 2.58%.The results presented in this work suggest that this setup of a local grid can be economically viable and that the BESS can solve the congestion issue when steered with an appropriate control strategy. We hope to inspire parties that battery energy storage systems can earn substantial revenue aside from solving issues on a (local) grid.Computer Scienc

Modelling and performance analysis of an integrated control system for providing ancillary services using a BESS
No full textThe production and consumption of energy in all walks of life is moving towards a greener and more sustainable mix of energy sources away from the traditional sources of coal and gas. With this shift, more renewable energy is expected to be integrated into the grid replacing conventional synchronous generators. In such conditions, the stability of the grid becomes a major concern due to the lack of inertia with the loss of base load generators. As a result, there is an urgent need to develop flexible solutions like Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) to provide ancillary services. Current research tackles it with a piecemeal approach towards frequency and voltage stability. As a result, different types of controllertopology are currently used to get each electrical parameter within the acceptable tolerance limits The contribution of this paper is to build an integrated controller based on droop control to tackle the two parameters of voltage and frequency stability simultaneously with one controller in a holistic fashion. To achieve this goal of demonstrating integrated control, different control schemes were tested and compared in terms of performance with respect to frequency control. The application of the above mentioned integrated control in a decentralized controller environment like a virtual power plant (VPP) was also demonstrated. The testing and design of the control schemes and BESS was done via benchmark models built for real time digital simulation (RTDS). The results show that the control schemes employed in the BESS can effectively contribute towards providing ancillary services in a holistic manner.Electrical Engineerin
