Probabilistic Load-Flow Analysis of Biomass-Fuelled Gas Engines with Electrical Vehicles in Distribution Systems

Feeding biomass-fueled gas engines (BFGEs) with olive tree pruning residues offers new opportunities to decrease fossil fuel use in road vehicles and electricity generation. BFGEs, coupled to radial distribution systems (RDSs), provide renewable energy and power that can feed electric vehicle (EV) c...
