Hydrogen and Battery Storage Technologies for Low-Cost Energy Decarbonization in Distribution Networks
Deep energy decarbonization cannot be achieved without high penetration of renewables. At higher renewable energy penetrations, the variability and intermittent nature of solar photovoltaic (PV) electricity can cause ramping issues with existing fossil fuel generation, requiring longer term energy storage to increase the reliability of grid operation. Here, a proton exchange membrane electrolyzer can produce H 2 and serves as a utility controllable load. The produced H 2 can then be stored and converted back into electricity, or mixed with natural gas, or used as transportation fuel, or chemical feedstock. This paper considers the perspective of the distribution system operator that operates the distributed energy resources on a standard IEEE 33-node distribution network considering the technical and physical constraints with the goal of minimizing total investment and operation cost. Different case studies, at very high PV penetrations are considered to show the challenges and path to net-zero emission energy production using H 2 energy. Sensitivity of utility PV costs and electrolyzer capital costs on producing H 2 at $\$1$ /kg are presented showing that the distribution network could produce 100% renewable electricity and H 2 could be produced at a cost of $\$1$ /kg by 2050 with conservative cost estimates and by 2030 with accelerated cost declines.

Multi-Objective PMU Allocation for Resilient Power System Monitoring
Phasor measurement units (PMUs) enable better system monitoring and security enhancement in smart grids. In order to enhance power system resilience against outages and blackouts caused by extreme weather events or man-made attacks, it remains a major challenge to determine the optimal number and location of PMUs. In this paper, a multi-objective resilient PMU placement (MORPP) problem is formulated, and solved by a modified Teaching-Learning-Based optimization (MO-TLBO) algorithm. Three objectives are considered in the MORPP problem, minimizing the number of PMUs, maximizing the system observability, and minimizing the voltage stability index. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through testing on IEEE 14-bus, 30-bus, and 118-bus test systems. The advantage of the MO-TLBO-based MORPP is demonstrated through the comparison with other methods in the literature, in terms of iteration number, optimality and time of convergence.
