A review on optimal placement of distributed generators for reliability improvement on distribution network

摘要: The astronomically high demand for electrical power globally nowadays and the inability of the already strengthened existing infrastructure coupled with the high cost of investing in new expansion program by the utilities, necessitated the need for distributed generations to be injected into the distribution networks in order to meet consumer electricity demands. However, connecting DGs for optimal result to the distribution networks is an oculus task and created a lot of technical, economic, environmental and regulation difficulties with more enfaces centered around power system reliability. In this paper, a review on optimal placement of distributed generators for reliability improvement on distribution networks is presented. Majority of the work study centred on using both analytical and Monte Carlo simulation methodologies in finding the impact or effect of penetrating WTG and PV on reliability of distribution system …
