“…Many research studies have been proposed in the recent past for reliability modeling of solar irradiance and integration of the solar system with the conventional systems. The focus of this work was to track the maximum irradiance for obtaining maximum solar power (Yan et al, 2018;Li et al, 2021;de Vries, Loonen, and Hensen 2021), assess reliability based on power loss due to variable insolation (Pandit et al, 2021), determine the reliability of electric vehicles (Hashemi-Dezaki 2019;Talukdar et al, Deka, and Goswami 2021), and optimize the cost for reliability evaluation (Ram, Bhandari, and Kumar 2021). However, the major challenge for the present and upcoming grid-connected solar DG system is to adequately supply the load demand (Okundamiya 2021), which needs to be addressed.…”

The global concerted effort toward achieving carbon neutrality has given impetus to the accelerated growth of renewable energy sources with government patronage. The smart grid has the mandate to integrate renewable energy sources adeptly toward meeting the vision of carbon neutrality by 2050 in many countries. Solar energy generation has emerged as one of the most viable options due to the rapid stride of innovations in this domain as well as due to the decreasing trend of the cost of photovoltaic (PV) technology. However, the uncertain sunlight leading to uncertain solar energy generation with a low-capacity factor has been a challenge to maintain the legacy reliability of the power system. Unlike a two-state model being used for analyzing conventional generators, a multistate model has been proposed for incorporating the random variation of solar energy generation correlating with random irradiance. An innovative approach for formulating probabilistic modeling of solar energy is implemented to evaluate different reliability indices such as loss of load probability (LOLP) and expected energy not served (EENS). Different case studies with results prove the efficacy of the proposed probabilistic model–based availability of solar power generation due to solar irradiance uncertainty along with interaction with stochastic load model on smart grid reliability and carbon neutrality.

“…In this paper, the electric motor and its controller are considered as a system, and the impact of the failure of this system on the overall failure of a vehicle is evaluated. In [27], an approach is proposed to investigate the reliability and availability of a solar electric vehicle equipped with a standby plug-in facility. In this paper, a composite reliability model based on the Markov theorem is developed to consider the stochastic failure and repair characteristics of the main components of the electric vehicles including the power supply system, energy storage system, motor-drive system, controllers, and energy management system.…”

The transportation system contains many fossil fuel-based automobiles equipped with the internal combustion engine that results in the pollution of the environment and greenhouse gas emissions. In recent years, to replace these automobiles with clean choices, electric vehicles are developed. So far, three kinds of electric vehicles including hybrid, plug-in, and full-electric vehicles are introduced. In the hybrid and plug-in electric vehicles, both the internal combustion engine and electric motor are used to move the vehicle. However, in the full-electric vehicle, the movement of the vehicle is done only by the electric motor. Due to the development of the electric vehicles in the transportation system, different aspects of these vehicles such as reliability must be studied. The reliability indices of the electric vehicles are affected by the failure rate of the composed components. Thus, to exactly determine the reliability performance of the electric vehicles, the failure rate of the main composed components affected by different parameters such as speed of the vehicle and temperature is taken into account. In the present paper, to accurately study the reliability of all-electric vehicles, the impact of variation in the temperature and vehicle speed on the failure rate of the composed components including battery, inverter, electric motor, and other static and rotation parts of the full-electric vehicle and consequently the failure rate of the vehicle is investigated. To determine the impact of operating temperature on the failure rate of composed components, the Arrhenius law is proposed. Based on the variation in the vehicle failure rate in terms of the vehicle speed and temperature, the reliability of the electric vehicle at different conditions is determined. It is concluded from numerical results performed in the paper that the failure rate of the understudied full-electric vehicle varies between 3.5 and 6 failures per year when the temperature varies between 0 and 50°C and the vehicle speed varies between 0 and 200 km/h.
