Authors: Ali Tarraq, Faissal El Mariami, Abdelaziz Belfqih, Touria Haidi Pages: 315 - 348 Abstract: Due to its multiple benefits, the integration of renewable-based distributed generation (RDG) into the distribution network (DN) is of great importance. Yet, given the complexity of this network, optimal distributed generation planning (ORDGP) is considered a complex combinatorial problem, which remains a real challenge for investigators, decision-makers, and investors. This issue involves finding the optimal locations, sizes, power factors, and number of RDGs to be incorporated into the DN to improve the network's overall efficiency while meeting a set of voltage, current, and power constraints. Moreover, the incorporation of uncertainties related to this type of source, especially wind turbine or PV system, decreases the ability of classical and analytical methods to solve the ORDGP problem. For this reason, meta-heuristic and hybrid methods have become very promising essentially because of their randomness. In this context, a systematic and comprehensive literature review on the different definitions, classifications, and interests of RDG, as well as on the different optimisation techniques, represents the main objective of this study. Concisely, this paper provides in-depth knowledge and serves as a useful guide for future researchers and investors in the ORDGP.

Authors: Lede Niu, Jingzhi Lin, Lifang Zhou, Anlin Li, Yan Zhou Pages: 349 - 365 Abstract: In order to clarify the quantitative relationship between construction land changes and carbon emissions, a prediction method for carbon emissions from construction land in central Yunnan urban agglomeration area based on multiple linear regression model was proposed. Taking the central Yunnan urban agglomeration area as the study area, based on the data of construction land from 2011 to 2020, the carbon emission of construction land was predicted by using the multiple linear regression model. There is a positive correlation between the carbon emissions of the central Yunnan urban agglomeration area and the level of construction land use. From 2011 to 2020, average annual growth rate of construction land area was 8.56%, and the average annual growth rate of carbon emissions was 5.75%. The annual growth rate of carbon emissions from 2021 to 2030 is 0.97%, indicating that the government's carbon emission control measures have achieved good results.

Authors: Lede Niu, Jingzhi Lin, Lifang Zhou, Anlin Li, Yan Zhou Pages: 366 - 382 Abstract: Passive energy-saving buildings have problems such as low energy consumption prediction accuracy and complex prediction process. A multi-step prediction method for energy consumption of passive energy-saving buildings based on energy consumption perception is proposed. Firstly, the related thermal parameters and building parameters of passive energy-saving buildings are calculated by steady-state calculation. Secondly, the equivalent thermal parameters of building air-conditioning load, air-conditioning load equivalent thermal parameters and air-conditioning load thermal parameters are determined by means of first-order differential equations, and the envelope structure is calculated. Finally, the ultrasonic sensor is set in the energy-saving building, and the energy consumption data of each part of the building is sensed to realise multi-step prediction. The experimental results show that the fluctuation of the predicted energy consumption value of the proposed algorithm is less than 1 J, the prediction accuracy is always above 90% and the time cost is about 1.54 s.

Authors: Yingwei Chen, Zhikui Chang Pages: 383 - 394 Abstract: Aiming at the problems of long prediction time and low prediction accuracy of traditional distributed energy load intelligent prediction methods, a distributed energy load intelligent prediction method based on least squares support vector machine is proposed. The method of linear interpolation is used to process the missing load data of distributed energy, and the wrong load data of distributed energy are processed horizontally and vertically. On this basis, the t-test standard in probability and statistics method is used to identify the abnormal load of distributed energy. Using least squares support vector machine, a distributed energy load forecasting model is constructed to realise the intelligent forecasting of distributed energy load. The experimental results show that the average MAPE and RMSE of the proposed method are 1.008% and 1048 respectively, and the time of distributed energy load forecasting is 15.8 s. The proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy and efficiency of distributed energy load forecasting.

Authors: Jinhua Kang, Guanglei Zhao Pages: 408 - 420 Abstract: In this paper, a low-carbon treatment method of green construction waste based on genetic algorithm is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the group organisation method is used to search in the search solution space to calculate the carbon emission of green building construction waste. According to the calculation method of carbon emissions, the product of activity data and emissions is obtained. Then, through the model objectives and constraints, a single cycle multi-objective mathematical model with waste treatment cost and low-carbon emission as the objective function is established. Finally, the genetic algorithm is used to solve the model to realise the low-carbon treatment of green building construction waste. The experimental results show that the proposed low-carbon treatment time of green building waste is only 16.7 s and the carbon emission is only 0.13 g, which can effectively improve the low-carbon treatment efficiency of green building waste.

Authors: Wei Yuan, Zhigang Liu Pages: 448 - 460 Abstract: For green buildings, the effect of energy-saving potential evaluation using the current method is poor and the evaluation efficiency is low. This paper uses the entropy weight method to study the energy-saving potential evaluation method of green buildings. Firstly, the evaluation index system of energy-saving potential of green buildings is established under the principles of scientificity, systematicness and operability, and the evaluation indexes are obtained. Then the entropy weight method is used to determine the index weight and calculate the energy-saving potential index. Finally, the energy-saving potential is evaluated based on the value on the basis of analysing the economic benefits. The simulation results show that the accuracy of the proposed method for energy-saving potential evaluation is up to 100%, the evaluation time is within 5 s, the evaluation accuracy is the highest and the evaluation time is the shortest.

Authors: Yao Li, Hui Liu, Wei Xia, Yanwu Ruan, Xiaochuan Guo Pages: 461 - 473 Abstract: In order to improve load balance and energy efficiency of renewable energy grid, this study designed a layered energy balance control method based on island mode. Firstly, the operation characteristics of renewable energy grid in island mode are analysed, and then the energy balance control of renewable energy grid is divided into three layers, namely, renewable energy output control, grid reactive power control and grid voltage control. The experimental results show that the load waveform of bus voltage tends to be stable after a short abnormal change in the early stage, and the voltage stabilises around 220 kV after 6 s. The maximum renewable energy utilisation rate can reach 95%, indicating that the proposed method achieves the design expectation.

Authors: Intissar Darwich, Islem Lachhab, Lotfi Krichen Pages: 474 - 488 Abstract: In this paper, enhanced particle swarm optimisation algorithm is suggested that uses mutated inertia weight which is based on Cauchy distribution in order to optimise fuel cell/ultra-capacitor electrical vehicle cost. This approach is dedicated to identify the optimal number of units of each energy source according to the vehicle performances. The proposed algorithm is based on Cauchy operator which substitutes the random function in classic PSO. Moreover, this method operates within constraints and inhibits to fall in local optimum problem. Cauchy distribution function permits to improve the convergence speed algorithm and to benefit global search ability of particle swarm optimisation. Simulation results show that the enhanced particle swarm optimisation contributes better in speed convergence and accuracy in comparison with classic PSO algorithm for solving traction system cost optimisation.

Authors: Intissar Darwich, Islem Lachhab, Lotfi Krichen Pages: 489 - 502 Abstract: The Iranian electricity market was reformed over the last three decades primarily to promote competition and improve its production efficiency. This paper provides an analysis of competition in the Iranian electricity market. Although other works have provided similar assessments, none has provided a thorough probe over a long period. This paper analyses the Herfindahl Hirschman Index (HHI) of the market for the last decade which has not been done. Also, the paper forecasts the index in the market for the next year to project its direction. Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) was implemented to forecast the indices in an efficient computational time. Grid search is used to select the optimal model for forecasting, and interactions analyses provide insights into the parameter options that lead to significantly improved accuracies. The results show that the market was unconcentrated from 2012 to 2021. Also, the forecasts show that the market will remain unconcentrated for the next year. Furthermore, the analysis shows that the entrance of new powerplants into the market could reduce the concentration in the market.
