Abstract-Increased the numbers of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) can have a significant impact on distribution system performance, such as reduction in power quality and efficiency, increase in power losses and voltage variations, as well as an adverse impact on the customers’ energy price. This paper proposed approach evaluates the effect of integrating a large number of PHEV on power system operation as well as appropriate operation of PHEVs can improve the voltage profile in the network by eliminating the voltage drops in highly-loaded buses with discharging reactive power. Furthermore, the optimal placements for charging stations and renewable energy sources (RES) are identified. The objective function includes minimizing the cost of power delivery to the PHEVs, the reducing losses as well as minimizing the voltage deviation between different buses in distinct hours. For increasing the load factor of the network, special coefficient is introduced into the problem. The ratio between the hourly demand and the peak in the day-ahead load characteristic is multiplied with the electricity tariffs which lead the aggregators to charge their PHEVs in off-peak hours. For this purpose, Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm is presented for optimal planning of charging stations and RES. The proposed method is implemented in 69-bus radial distribution system (RDS).

The Haymarket Riot was an opportunity for the people to fight for what they believe but the police tried to stop that . A bomb was thrown in a crowd of officers because they wanted less working hours.So the people throw a bomb to make sure that they could get what they want but it backfired on them. McCormick Reaper Works hired new and untrained people to take their places in the company that was not from the same union as the past workers.
First built in the early 1900s by inventors tinkering with combinations of the electric motor and the gasoline engine, hybrid vehicles were dropped when gasoline-fueled vehicles became more reliable and easier to start, and gasoline fuel more readily available. Research and development of hybrid vehicles was revived by concern about oil dependency in the1970s and about air pollution in the late 1980s.

“Recent polls suggest that between 46% and 58% of the American population believe marijuana should be legally regulated, while support for allowing the medical use of marijuana is about 80%” (“10 Facts About Marijuana”). As of 2014, twenty-three states and Washington, D.C. have passed laws allowing smoked marijuana to be used for a variety of medical conditions (4). However, these state marijuana laws do not alter the fact that using marijuana continues to be an offense under Federal Law. The use of cannabis for medical purposes may have been introduced up to 10,000 years ago. Accordingly, it was most certainly developed in China in 2900 BC, being referred to as a popular medicine by Fu Hsi, the Chinese emperor at the time (9). Marijuana was recommended for malaria, constipation, rheumatic pains, “absentmindedness,” and “female disorders.” Marijuana should be legal because of its many benefits: medical use, tax revenue boost, and industrial and commercial use.
Driving a car is something that can be quite exhilarating, as it makes the person feel free, as if they can go anywhere that their hearts aspire. With the unveiling of the new hybrid vehicles, there is an alternative means to get to an end. These vehicles are some of the best for the money, while keeping things such as the atmosphere and gas mileage in mind. They are many other improvement in driving a hybrid car, even over these huge ones that make many humans convert; even if it's just for the fact that they are cheaper when it comes to insurance.

Abstract: LEACH TDMA schedules of each cluster are built independently. This can lead to collisions among clusters if the same channel is allotted to more than one overlapping clusters at the same time. To reduce this type of interference, in LEACH each cluster communicates using different CDMA codes. Thus, when a node is elected as CH, it chooses randomly from a list of spreading codes and informs all the nodes in the cluster to transmit using this spreading code. Hence all clusters can have intra-cluster communication in parallel. However, in large WSNs, as number of clusters increases self-noise generated by these codes may cross threshold limit and reach capacity limit. This forces to look at multiple channel use for improved throughput and energy-efficiency. We present an energy-efficient multi-channel routing protocol (CFCA) for wireless sensor networks. By computing the size of each cluster and identifying non-overlapping clusters, the proposed method allows channel reuse within WSN. This algorithm optimizes number of channels required for the given WSN.
A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to move the vehicle.[1] The term most commonly refers to hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which combine an internal combustion engine and one or more electric motors. However other mechanisms to capture and utilize energy are included.
Recently there has been much excitement regarding the release of the first hybrid electric car into the American consumer market. The concept of eco-friendly driving and the wide variety of electric cars in the market may seem to be a relatively new concept in the automobile industry; however, this is far from true.
The Audi A3 Sportback e-tron name is a mouthful. Once you get beyond the lengthy moniker for this unusual plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), calling it “e-tron” or “A3 e-tron” seems entirely appropriate.
Hybrid cars are vehicles that have a combustion engine with an electric motor and battery pack. There are many types of hybrid vehicles and they are all different. As we know gas can be expensive at times. It is bad on our environment as it causes pollution. Hybrid vehicles is one way we have improved our economy and environment. It provides less emissions than regular vehicles and gasoline is just a backup, as these vehicles run off electricity as the main source. Earlier models have used lead-acid batteries, which were bad on the environment due to the high amounts of toxic lead. Hybrid vehicles have since then improved and now contain lithium ion batteries. Hybrid cars do have many positive aspects, but they are not completely safe toward the environment.
Energy plays an important role in human activities. The utilization of fossil fuel based energy resources has increased the impact on the global environmental issues such as CO2 emissions that contribute to global warming and a drastic climate changing. The need of exploitation of new sources such as renewable energy (RE) becomes crucial. The combination of multi-source renewable energies at the distribution stage and the proper energy management will definitely reducing the cost of operation and could deliver the best efficiency and reliability to the users.
As the Earth turns round and round, transportation is in evolution. From the first car in the world, Benz Patent-Motorwagen powered by a 670W internal combustion engine to today’s powerful supercars. But the thing that never change is that they always need to drink fossil fuels, until now. All of a sudden, many types of electric vehicles are showing up in dealerships. Different than the jokes in past, people are seriously considering if they need to buy one for lower emission tax, lower price to feed and more parking space. And even for the polar bear’s life, as many advertisements show. But electric vehicles are not ideally perfect, not as many advertisements show. They are expensive, they need a long time to be fully charged and they will put power plants in developing country working under much higher pressure. On top of that, pollution in battery production cannot be ignored.
, 2009; Gonder et al. , 2009), and reduces greenhouse gases emissions GHGs) relying on the raw materials of the marginal supply of electricity used to charge them (McCarthy and Yang, 2009; benjamin What 's more Hirsh, 2009). Furthermore, (Yang, 2013) conducted that compare with a base conventional vehicle, a PHEV can decrease gas utilization by more than 70%, given the accessibility of daytime charging. (Denholm et. al, 2013) presented that PHEVs are comparable to conventional hybrid electric vehicles, yet all the characteristic a bigger battery and plug-in charger that lets electricity from the grid to displace a part of the petroleum fuel drive energy. Also, PHEVs reduce petroleum utilize and output fewer tailpipe emissions when operating electrically, in any case without the extent constraint of immaculate battery electric vehicles. They additionally diversification and cost stabilization on fuels, since electricity could make produced from a lot of various elementary fuel sources. Also, (Zhang et. al, 2011) found that given the magnitude of establishment the infrastructure that would be required high power, non-home charging locations, large batteries with home 1. 44 kW charging show the probability for reducing fuel consumption with a significant minimum
Hybrid is a term used to describe a combination of two or more distinctive things, aiming to accomplish a common objective. A hybrid vehicle is a fuel efficient vehicle having two motors- one a gasoline powered motor and the other electric motor. The reason for combining two motors is using their strengths and reducing deficiencies. Electric motor is used at low speed wile gas motors perform better at high speed generating extra power for a particular motor weight. During rush hours, when vehicles are continuously stopping and running, performance of electric motor is appreciative. Gas motor supports higher speed supporting driving at the highways.
