Distributed generation system planning based on renewable energy source

Abstract

Distributed generation systems are needed in order to use existing energy resources efficiently and to meet energy needs. Although the interconnection of distributed generation systems with renewable sources offers many advantages, technical difficulties may arise from the inappropriate integration of distributed generation. Therefore, optimal planning of distributed generation is very important for the distributed grid to provide the expected power. Optimizing production systems is used to increase efficiency, provide flexibility in electrical systems, reduce costs and reduce power fluctuations. Meta-heuristic algorithms are more suitable for multi-purpose applications. In this study, the renewable energy source and energy storage system in the distributed generation system are also mentioned. Some of the optimization methods used for optimal planning of the distributed system are also included.
