DESCRIPTION:IAS &amp; PLES joint Chapter\, Toronto Section Invites you to the f
 ollowing technical event:\n\nTitle: Hybrid Renewable Energy Standalone Sys
 tems\n\nAbstract:\n\nSeveral isolated areas in the world currently use onl
 y diesel generators (DGs) to serve their requirements of electrical energy
 . However\, the use of DGs has many drawbacks: 1) high cost of electricity
 \, 2) air and noise pollution\, 3) Loss in fuel efficiency and maintenance
  cost. To remedy those problems it is better to generate power from a cost
 -effective\, environmental friendly renewable energy sources (RESs) such a
 s wind\, solar\, hydro\, biomass\, etc. RESs are clean and almost availabl
 e all over the planet but are intermittent in nature\, especially wind and
  solar power generations. This makes their integration to micro-grid with 
 DG difficult\, especially if the local grid is not connected to the main g
 rid. Hybrid standalone system consists of many elements such as photovolta
 ic panels\, wind turbines\, DG\, energy storage system\, AC and DC loads\,
  dump load etc. Most of these elements are connected to the AC or DC bus v
 ia power electronic devices. In this presentation many possible hybrid ren
 ewable energy standalone systems will be discussed. Control of some of the
  systems will be discussed in detail.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Ambrish Chandra\,

 n&lt;p&gt;Several isolated areas in the world currently use only diesel generato
 rs (DGs) to serve their requirements of electrical energy. However\, the u
 se of DGs has many drawbacks: 1) high cost of electricity\, 2) air and noi
 se pollution\, 3) Loss in fuel efficiency and maintenance cost. To remedy 
 those problems it is better to generate power from a cost-effective\, envi
 ronmental friendly renewable energy sources (RESs) such as wind\, solar\, 
 hydro\, biomass\, etc. RESs are clean and almost available all over the pl
 anet but are intermittent in nature\, especially wind and solar power gene
 rations. This makes their integration to micro-grid with DG difficult\, es
 pecially if the local grid is not connected to the main grid. Hybrid stand
 alone system consists of many elements such as photovoltaic panels\, wind 
 turbines\, DG\, energy storage system\, AC and DC loads\, dump load etc. M
 ost of these elements are connected to the AC or DC bus via power electron
 ic devices. In this presentation many possible hybrid renewable energy sta
 ndalone systems will be discussed. Control of some of the systems will be 
 discussed in detail.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Agenda: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;3:00 pm:&amp;nbsp\;&lt;span
