| Abstract |
The penetration of distributed generation sets new
requirements for the electrical distribution network. The
network has traditionally been a passive component with
assumed ‘downwards’ power flow. Distributed generation
changes the basis of network operation and planning.
A safe and reliable usage of the network requires operational
protection. The present protection schemes may prove
nonfunctional in the presence of distributed generation.
Managing the more complex protection system is one of the main
challenges for the growth of distributed generation.
The network planning is typically performed with dedicated
planning systems. There is a need to develop these systems to
include the impacts of distributed generation. This would enable
effective planning activity as the grid integration of distributed
generation becomes more common planning task. |
