Impacts of Distributed Generation in Power System

Abstract

A distributed generation (DG) system is comparable to a conventional power plant. It makes use of renewable energy sources (hydropower generation, solar power, wind, etc.). Reactive power imbalances in the power system are being addressed by the current study as a means of enabling DG integration. The technique focusses on determining the best place to connect a compensating device and obtains simulation results with DG interfaced under typical power system operating conditions. The network parameters were set and the results were tested in accordance with IEEE-14 bus standards.
