TL;DR: In this paper, a review of hybrid renewable/alternative energy (RE/AE) power generation systems focusing on energy sustainability is presented, highlighting some important issues and challenges in the design and energy management of hybrid RE/AE systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, a low power boost converter for thermoelectric energy harvesting that demonstrates an efficiency that is 15% higher than the state-of-the-art for voltage conversion ratios above 20.

TL;DR: In this article, a low power boost converter for thermoelectric energy harvesting that demonstrates an efficiency that is 15% higher than the state-of-the-art for voltage conversion ratios above 20.

TL;DR: A benchmark LV network developed within the EU project “Microgrids” and later adopted as a benchmark LV system by CIGRE TF C6.04.02 maintains the important technical characteristic of real utility grids, whereas, at the same time, it dispenses with the complexity of actual networks to permit efficient modeling and simulation of microgrid operation.

TL;DR: This task force paper summarizes the state-of-the-art real-time digital simulation concepts and technologies that are used for the analysis, design, and testing of the electric power system and its apparatus.
