Advanced microgrid design and analysis for forward operating bases
Altmetrics
Abstract
This thesis takes a holistic approach in creating an improved electric power generation system for a forward operating base (FOB) in the future through the design of an isolated microgrid. After an extensive literature search, this thesis found a need for drastic improvement of the FOB power system. A thorough design process analyzed FOB demand, researched demand side management improvements, evaluated various generation sources and energy storage options, and performed a HOMER® discrete optimization to determine the best microgrid design. Further sensitivity analysis was performed to see how ...
