Challenges for the Goal of 100% Renewable Energy Sources to Fit the Green Transition
The increasing penetration of Renewable Energy (RE) into the electrical market is desirable in terms of sustainability. Nevertheless, it is a challenge that all the interested actors shall address from both the technical and economical points of view. This paper provides an overview of the main challenges and solutions towards the technological transition to an electrical system with 100% renewable energy sources in terms of innovations and operative limits of the traditional systems. These innovative paradigms will also address the social impact and government policies.
Experimental investigation on high-efficiency control algorithms for three-phase induction motors
This paper presents an experimental investigation regarding the power losses variations occurring in three-phase induction motors (IMs) as a function of the magnetization level of the machine. More in detail, the power losses identification is obtained by changing in real-time the working operating conditions of the IM drive and the IM reference flux. The sets of measurements are carried out by setting up a test bench and the obtained results confirm that the power losses occurring in induction motors can be minimized by adequately setting the direct axis current component for each IM working condition. This research represents the starting point for the conception of advanced real-time los…
Virtual Synchronous Generator: An application to Microgrid Stability
The objective of this paper is to illustrate an alternative control algorithm for power converters which have the task of introducing the energy generated by systems based on the use of renewable sources such as photovoltaic or wind power, into small-sized networks, microgrids. Virtual Synchronous Generator can operate both in parallel to the main network as well as in isolated and autonomous conditions (islanding-mode). The contribute of this work is to drive a consolidated approach, made in the time domain, in a more flexible and less time-consuming approach based on Park transformation

Enhanced modulation strategy for 7-level voltage waveform in asymmetrical 5-level Cascaded H-Bridge Inverters
The CHBMI performance optimization can be reached both with hardware and software solutions. Generally, asymmetrical configurations allow the extension of the voltage levels number and the implementation of an innovative modulation strategy allows for improving the performance in terms of harmonic distortion and conversion efficiency. This work is devoted to the development of a modulation strategy that allows improving the performance of an asymmetrical single-phase five-level Cascaded H-Bridge Inverter generating a 7-level voltage waveform. Thus, a digital approach and corresponding digital functions are presented. Subsequently, the impact of the dead time and the influence on the voltage…

Magnetic field effects on human body of wireless chargers for E-bikes
For the electric vehicles battery charging, the wireless power transmission is increasingly representing an innovative solution. The inductive power transfer is the standard technology of wireless charging: the energy transfer occurs between two magnetically coupled coils. Although this battery charging system is especially convenient for E-bikes, the physiological effects of the related magnetic fields shall be estimated and taken into account. In this paper, a 200 W prototype of wireless battery charger for E-bikes is proposed and described. Moreover, various measurements of the surrounding magnetic field are carried out to evaluate the actual physiological compatibility of the system.
