operation point will be at the intersection of the power-voltage profile of theload and the PV array. If the operation point is at the maximum power point (MPP), maximumpower from the PV array will be achieved. However, since the MPP is irradiation dependent,installation of a power regulator and continuous MPP tracking control technique are essential. Figure 1: Electrical characteristics of a PV panel in different illumination. B. Energy Storage Systems Since renewable energy have intermittent characteristics, energy storage systems arenecessary for a high penetration of energy into a power system. Energy storages are also ofcritical importance in power systems to meet peak demands and to improve the reliability of thepower

the current. That means for each event that occurs, six waveformsare recorded. These waveforms will be referred to as the voltage and current profiles. B. Sampling Waveforms The process of sampling raw captured waveforms entails determining which data to feed into the machine learningalgorithm. The PowerVisa has a sample rate of 256 samples/cycle [8], or 15,360 Hz for a 60 Hz grid. As such,analyzing the transient events would likely produce unreliable results. Because of this, the transient portion of thewaveforms are ignored, and the steady-state waveforms from the pre-transient and post-transient portions of eachevent were the chosen as the input for the NILM algorithm. For consistency, each waveform sample represents twocycles of

(27), A and B are the number of solar PV and solar thermal panels, respectively. Thevariable C represents a value of 0 or 1 which indicates whether not a CHP system is installed. Itsvalue is dependent on the spark spread calculation and whether not CHP is deemed costeffective. The CostPV and CostST refer to the installed cost of one panel for both solar PV andsolar thermal systems.

parameters. When designing a BMS,design considerations must be made for cell balancing. Cell balancing is the process ofequalizing charge across all cells within a battery bank, either through dissipation as heat orthrough the transfer of energy from high power cells to low power cells. To better understand themechanics of cell balancing, the design team reviewed the research of B. Yildirim et al. found inreference [3]. This article covers three methods of cell equalization in battery energy storagesystems (BESS). Cell balancing is an integral component to maintaining SOH. While cells of thesame voltage may be used in a system, “manufacturing and thermal variations, differences ininternal impedances, and self-discharging rates” will cause variation
