Abstract
The ever-growing population and globalization have resulted into an increase in demand for power. Additionally, ecological concerns like an unnatural weather change have constrained us to locate new and different substitutes to the current conventional sources of energy. To provide a solution to this crisis of energy in a way that is environment friendly, we have focused our attention towards making renewable energy resources as an alternative to currently employed sources of power. This paper contains extensive study on different Distributed Generation (DG) sources, comparing their merits and demerits also comprising of the impact when added to an already existing AC power grid. Accordingly, the planning methodologies have been discussed which will help us in determining which type of DG suits best to our requirement. This paper also contains the review of optimal placement techniques and sizing methodologies for DG system in grid networks, which are together known as Hybrid Energy Systems (HES).Â
Highlights
The concentrated power age has been available for quite a while
Hybrid Energy Systems (HES) can be tried in lab or can be performed in the pilot plants, or it could be as yet enhanced before implementing before simulation, thinking about different parameters
The diagram of the significant viewpoints identified with Distributed Generation (DG) and its effect that DG may have on the task of disseminated systems are talked about
Summary
The concentrated power age has been available for quite a while. These frameworks use ordinary conventional assets for power age. Distributed Generation (DG) which amounts to small power sources associated close to customer terminals are developing as an alluring substitution. Energy sources apart from the conventional energy assets, for example, sun oriented and wind are copiously accessible in nature and thusly have pulled in different energy producing manufacture segments to produce such power on a substantial scale. The wind turbine and PV cluster based DG units are normally controlled with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) towards augmenting their energy generation. There are two particular strategies for solar based power generation to be specific solar photovoltaic and concentrated solar thermal.
