Multi-energy storage SoC equilibrium strategy based on the variable regulating factor by CHEN Jingwen, LIU Jiaxin, ZHANG Wenqian

“…In view of the overcharge and over-discharge of individual energy storage units due to differences in the state of charge (SoC), rated capacity and line impedance of the microgrid multi-energy storage units, which will affect its service life and make the stability adjustment ability of the microgrid deteriorate, this paper proposes a multi-energy storage SoC dynamic balance strategy based on the variable regulating factor. The arccotangent function is used to associate the droop coefficient with SoC and rated capacity, and the virtual voltage drop compensation link is introduced to achieve the balance of multiple sets of energy storage SoC. …”

Transpiration and Water Use Efficiency of Mediterranean <i>Eucalyptus</i> Genotypes Under Contrasting Irrigation Regimes by Juan C. Valverde, Rafael A. Rubilar, Alex Medina, Matías Pincheira, Verónica Emhart, Yosselin Espinoza, Daniel Bozo, Otávio C. Campoe

“…Low irrigation reduced CAI by 5–25% and Tr by 10–35%, while WUE responses varied across genotypes, ranging from a 12% decrease to a 48% increase. Based on their functional responses, genotypes were grouped as follows: (i) stable performers (Es, Ecg, Eb) exhibited high WUE and consistent Tr under both WR; (ii) partially plastic genotypes (EgH, EngH) combined moderate reductions in Tr with improved WUE; and (iii) water-sensitive genotypes (EgL, EngL, En) showed substantial declines in Tr alongside variable WUE gains. …”
