Potential of non-frequency ancillary services for a distribution system operator
Reiskup, Filip ; Holub, Martin (referee) ; Ptáček, Michal (advisor)
This thesis provides a basic overview of the ancillary services in a transmission system. It summarizes changes regarding the implementation of European directives SOGL and EBGL. It describes in detail a portfolio of non-frequency ancillary services used in the distribution systems. It evaluates the demand of E.ON distribution system potential for those services in particular locations. Practical part is focused on a potential of reactive power management in this distribution area. It evaluates reactive power flow into transmission system and indicates the most critical substations. This thesis also covers analysis of existing resources in this distribution area and assign their possible potential in reactive power management.

Charging Stations for Electric Vehicles
Zajac, Tomáš ; Ptáček, Michal (referee) ; Radil, Lukáš (advisor)
Bachelor´s thesis deals with issues of electric vehicle and EV charging. In its first part, categorization of EV´s is listed alongside with description of energy accumulation used in EVs and it´s key features. Furthermore, key mechanisms regarding EV charging standards and equipment are defined and the possibilities of varying charging station designs are presented and described. First part is closed by short overview of trends and innovations. Next part is focused on operating costs analysis of electric vehicles and vehicles with internal combustion engine. Final part deals with selection of charging station, creation and description of mathematical model of its charging cycle. Impact on grid is discussed along with optional partial decoupling of the load from the grid, achieved by the application of energy storage elements – buffer accumulation. Thesis is closed by proposal for calculation methodology for capital and operating costs analysis. This analysis is programmed and the overall cost of the investment is discussed.

Analysis and design of the replacement of the specific overhead line in distribution network
Račuch, Marek ; Bátora, Branislav (referee) ; Ptáček, Michal (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the issue of the reconstruction of outdoor cables of low voltage distribution network in exchange for the cable line. It analyzes the important factors which are necessary for the preparation of the project documentation for the issue of the territorial consent. The thesis is divided into 4 main chapters. After the first chapter there is introduced chapter 2, which shows the differences between cable and outdoor cables with their advantages and disadvantages. Chapter 3 deals with the guiding principles for low-voltage cable design and the types of equipment needed for the proper operation of a particular distribution network while respecting the requirements of valid PNEs and ČSNs. Chapter 4 explains the chronology of the process leading to the formulation of a basic technical proposal, which is further addressed in Chapter 5, which deals with the complete formulation of the project documentation for the issue of territorial consent.

Complex simulator of the solar irradiance
Petrov, Roman ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Ptáček, Michal (advisor)
This work consists of a theoretical part, which deals with various ways of mathematical equations to model the thermal photovoltaic cell. Thermal modeling describes a photovoltaic cell temperature, and heat capacity of the photovoltaic cell. This temperature is usually function or directly dependent on the intensity of solar radiation. In the theoretical section explains several ways to model thermal photovoltaic cells. Thermal modeling is outside the scope of this paper, it is mainly the modeling of solar irradiance, which is discussed in detail in the next section, and then in the practical part. The practical part is concerned with constructing mathematical equations that describe the intensity of solar radiation. These mathematical equations are then used to build a mathematical model. The actual mathematical model is created in a computer program PSCAD, wherein the main input parameter of the intensity of solar radiation. This model can simulate the course of the sun, for which it is necessary to set various parameters such as: region, time of day, the seasons, but also has a function that is essential for modeling of solar radiation intensity, and it is cloudiness. Cloud is fundamentally changing the size of the radiation intensity, and its direct constituents. After compiling a complex simulator of solar irradiance, this simulator is tested for its validation in form of doing couple of graphical runs of intensity of solar radiation for various locations on Earth, which are time dependent.

Analysis of air quality around selected energy devices
Páll, Marek ; Ondroušek, Luděk (referee) ; Ptáček, Michal (advisor)
My thesis deals with analysis of air quality close to power devices and with rating of emissions caused by these devices. In the work there are listed laws and regulations, which relate to the rating of indoor and outdoor air quality. Further, there is a briefly clarified problem of pollution, outdoor air pollution and methods of measurement of pollutants. Main characteristics of workplace climatic conditions and their permissible limits are classified and characterized. Areas where the analysis was done are specified and there is mentioned a brief course of the measurement. In further parts are stated results of measurements done close to the boiler, where natural gas is burned, and a boiler, where wood chips are burned. The last part is dedicated to evaluation of emissions measurement results.

PV plant performance evaluation and optimization
Špinar, Marek ; Ptáček, Michal (referee) ; Morávek, Jan (advisor)
The Master´s thesis deals with issues of operational performance of two photovoltaic power plants. In the thesis is stated the history of photovoltaics, description of photovoltaic effect, used materials and production technology of the most used material in PV industry – Silicon. The basic parts and parameters of photovoltaic power plant are described. Thesis also solves, how could be done the first and periodically control due to relevant directives. The ways of diagnostics potentional failures, methods of measuring and the exam of monitoring system are stated. Practice part is focused on measuring and comparing operational performance of FVE Kurdějov and FVE Šakvice II. Operational performance was calculated from exported data for years 2014 and 2015. The thesis also contains measuring of each string connected to inventors, which are installed on the power plant. The result is an identification of strings with decreased operational performance. Based on that was created recommendations for optimalization and increase of the performance. The last part is software for simulation of photovoltaic power plant. This SW calculates potentional energy, which could be produced in a day with available data export. The calculation is defined by parameters, which are assigned.
