An hour-ahead prediction offers the market members with the pre-dispatch prices for the next hour. It is useful for an effective bidding strategy where the quantity of bids can be revised or changed prior to the dispatch hour. However, only a few studies have been conducted in the field of hour-ahead forecasting. This is due to most of the power markets apply two-settlement market structure (day-ahead and real time) or standard market design rather than singlesettlement system (real time). Therefore, a multistage optimization for hybrid Least Square Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) model is developed in this study to provide an accurate price forecast with optimized parameters and input features. So far, no literature has been found on multistage feature and parameter selections using the methods of LSSVM-GA for hour-ahead price prediction. All the models are examined on the Ontario power market; which is reported as among the most volatile market worldwide. A huge number of features are selected by three stages of optimization to avoid from missing any important features. The developed LSSVM-GA shows higher forecast accuracy with lower complexity than the existing models.

Day-ahead prediction provides forecast prices for a day ahead that is useful for daily operation and decision-making. The main challenge for day ahead price forecasting is the accuracy and efficiency. Lower accuracy is produced due to the nature of electricity price that is highly volatile compared to load series. Hence, some researchers have developed complex procedures to produce accurate forecast while considering significant features and optimum parameters.

Phase comparison protection for distribution networks with high PV penetration

However, a high level of penetration of the energy sources in the distribution network will cause issues such as reverse power flow and the disruptions to the coordination of existing protection system. This paper looks on how reverse power flow will affect the tripping times of overcurrent relays and its effect on the coordination of the protection system. This paper also investigates on the possibility of using the phase comparison protection method to improve the coordination of the protection system in a high PV penetration environment.

Apart from the activation functions, number of layers, layer size, learning rate, and number of epochs, the number of delays at the input and at the feedback loop need to also be determined. The layer recurrent network (LRN) is seen to have the potential to outperform NARX. However, not many papers have reported on using the LRN to identify nonlinear systems. Therefore, it is the aim of this paper to investigate and analyze the parametric evaluation of the LRN and NARX in identifying 3 different types of nonlinear systems. From the 3 nonlinear systems, the satellite's attitude state space is more complex compared to the sigmoid and polynomial equations. To ensure an unbiased comparison, a general guideline is used to select the parameter values in an organized manner. The LRN and NARX performance is analyzed based on the training and architecture parameters, mean squared errors, and correlation coefficient values. The results show that the LRN outperformed NARX in training quality, needs equal or fewer parameters that need to be determined through heuristic processes and equal or lower number of epochs, and produced a smaller training error compared to NARX, especially when identifying the satellite's attitude. This indicates that the LRN has the capability of identifying a more complex and nonlinear system compared to NARX.

In medium term forecast, electricity price can be predicted for several weeks ahead up to a year or few months ahead. It is useful for resources reallocation where the market players have to manage the price risk on the expected market scenario. However, researches on medium term price forecast have also exhibited low forecast accuracy. This is due to the limited historical data for training and testing purposes. Therefore, an optimisation technique of Genetic Algorithm (GA) for Least Square Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) was developed in this study to provide an accurate electricity price forecast with optimised LSSVM parameters and input features. So far, no literature has been found on feature and parameter selections using the method of LSSVM-GA for medium term price prediction.

Power producers and customers use short term price forecasts to manage and plan for bidding approaches, and hence increase the utility’s profit and energy efficiency. This paper proposes a novel method of Least Square Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) with Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) to predict daily electricity prices in Ontario. The selection of input data and LSSVM’s parameters held by BFOA are proven to improve accuracy as well as efficiency of prediction. A comparative study of the proposed method with previous researches was conducted in term of forecast accuracy. The results indicate that (1) the LSSVM with BFOA outperforms other methods for same test data; (2) the optimization algorithm of BFOA gives better accuracy than other optimization techniques. In fact, the proposed approach is less complex compared to other methods presented in this paper.

An hour-ahead forecast provides market participants with the pre-dispatch prices for the next hour. It is beneficial for an active bidding strategy where amount of bids can be reviewed or modified before delivery hours. However, only a few studies have been conducted in the field of hour-ahead forecasting. This is due to most power markets apply two-settlement market structure (day-ahead and real time) or standard market design rather than single-settlement system (real time). Therefore, a hybrid multi-optimization of Least Square Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) and Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) was designed in this study to produce accurate electricity price forecasts with optimized LSSVM parameters and input features. So far, no works has been established on multistage feature and parameter optimization using LSSVM-BFOA for hour-ahead price forecast. The model was examined on the Ontario power market. A huge number of features were selected by five stages of optimization to avoid from missing any important features. The developed LSSVM-BFOA shows higher forecast accuracy with lower complexity than most of the existing models.

This control strategy can be used to improve the overall performance of an overcurrent relay for power system protection compared to conventional relay. It is essential for a relay to work efficiently to trip the circuit breakers in the presence of faults and at the same time proficient to coordinate well with the networks to avoid mal-operation. There are two different types of fuzzy logic control strategies proposed for the relay, the Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) and Fuzzy Bang-Bang Controller (FBBC). The FBBC is the same as the conventional FLC except that the defuzzification method uses largest of maxima (LOM). Comparisons between the fuzzy controllers and conventional relay are based on IEC 255-3 standard. These relays are implemented on a DSP TMS320F2812 and their performance is evaluated which is based on operation time, DSP’s execution time and grading margin. The results obtained show a significant performance improvement compared to conventional relay.
