The European Union will continue advancing hydrogen projects, focusing on infrastructure design and supporting production with European equipment, according to Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission.
A group of scientists from a major Chinese grid operator have proposed to use an enhanced version of the particle swarm optimization algorithm to adjust inertia and damping coefficients in batteries linked to PV systems. Their approach was validated through a series of simulation and was found to enhance transient performance.
