    • A comparative study into the application of the NRS 048, IEEE 519-1992 and IEC 61000-3-2 on harmonic apportioning in a discrimitive tariff 

      Bezuidenhout, Schalk Leon (North-West University, 2003)
      Development in power electronics enabled sophisticated energy conversion. These new solid-state energy conversion processes are energy-effective, but are inherently non-linear which means that the load current is typically ...
    • Contextualisation and reporting of Quality of Supply data 

      Stander, Christiaan Marthinus (2014)
      Quality of Supply (QoS) concerns the interaction of the loads on the electrical grid with the voltage supplied by generation, in the transmission and distribution portions of the grid. Most power quality standards and ...
    • A discriminative approach to harmonic emission assessment 

      Peterson, B. (North-West University (South Africa), 2021)
      Harmonic emission assessment of a Renewable Power Plant (RPP) for grid code compliance, is a complex task that requires a fair and pragmatic approach. RPPs should only account for the harmonics they emit, i.e. those which ...
    • Dynamic modelling of an industrial microgrid 

      Erasmus, Rudolf Johan (North-West University (South Africa)., 2019)
      With a decentralized approach to power system development gaining traction in both developed and under-developed countries, the realization of the next generation of power distribution network is identified as the Smart ...
    • Dynamic modelling of an industrial microgrid 

      Erasmus, R.J. (North-West University (South Africa), 2019)
      With a decentralized approach to power system development gaining traction in both developed and under-developed countries, the realization of the next generation of power distribution network is identified as the Smart ...
    • Microgrid energy management system based on artificial intelligence 

      Swanepoel, G.C. (North-West University (South Africa), 2019)
      Microgrids provide the opportunity to combine various distributed energy resources to supply a local load independently from, or in parallel with the national grid. This allows the load to utilise renewable energy as much ...
    • Mitigation of operational risk in South African distribution networks with integrated renewable generation 

      Esterhuysen, Gert Nicolaas (North-West University (South Africa), 2019)
      Under the Department of Energy's (DoE) renewable energy independent power producer procurement program (REIPPPP), utility scale renewable energy projects were connected to sub-transmission networks. To date 4138 MW of ...
    • The remote calibration of instrument transformers 

      Rens, S. (North-West University (South Africa), 2019)
      Successful operation and control of a power system is dependent on the accurate measurement of field data. Each measurement received is the result of a chain of instrumentation and data handling processes, and with each ...
