Development Strategies for Electric Utilities
Journal Title: Acta Energetica - Year 2016, Vol 29, Issue 4
Abstract
Electric utilities are of key importance for the national economy. Many research institutions deal with issues of the power sector to find an answer to the question, which of the developed strategies to ensure energy security of the country should be taken into account? Should the companies adopt the strategy of adaptation or perhaps the strategy of breakthrough? If they follow the adaptation course, should it be a passive or active adaptation, and under what circumstances? These questions are constantly analysed by the author, and the answers are to be used to develop recommendations needed to build a secure power market. The article discusses the structure of the market and two basic models – traditional and competitive.

The Optimal Choice of Electrochemical Energy Storage Parameters
The possibility of using energy storage in a power system is being highlighted increasingly often. Its operating mode or manner of use is called the “storage usage strategy”. One of them, program operation, was selected...
The use of Small Scale Inverters Working with Renewable Energy Sources in Order to Improve Voltage Quality in a Power Distribution Network
The paper presents the results of a research project aimed at the construction of a single-phase inverter designed to transfer power from renewable energy sources (RES) to an electric power system (EPS). The research con...
Study of Interdependence of Wind Generation Output and Potential PV Generation in the Area of ENERGA-OPERATOR SA
