An interface protection system with power line communication for distributed generators remote control
2014
The aim of this work is to present a narrow band power line communication (NB-PLC) interface protection system (IPS) for distributed generators (DGs); it has been developed according to the current standard CEI 0-21 and the requirements for smart grid applications. For such applications, the new IPSs have to implement new intelligent functions such as remote monitoring and control of DGs and Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) inverters, not only in terms of disconnection but also of voltage regulation and power modulation by the utility control. The main feature of the developed IPS is the ability to interact with both the grid and the DG's and ESS's inverters. In fact, it can communicate with t…
La 5th IABR di Rotterdam: How do we go about making city?
2012
The projects shown during the 5th IABR (International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam) "Making City", hold in Rotterdam in 2012, have treated the topic linked to the development of some specific contests, through the individuation of many factors which influence the urban planning, as global tendencies, cooperation and smart connections: these are necessary strategies to define a Smart City. They are connected not only to the infrastructures and to digital connections, but also to the business, understanding of technology, users for urban planning and control of features from which depends the success of future cities. From the integration’s ability of Architecture, urban planning and lands…
