Modern trends in the development of electric distribution networks for agro-industrial facilities related to the introduction of more complex production technologies, increased consumer loads and stricter requirements for reliability and energy efficiency of networks are considered. In the conditions of sectoral supply restrictions and the need to replace imported components, the possibilities of implementing the advantages of distributed electric power in flexible energy supply of agro-industrial and social facilities on the basis of domestic technology and innovative methods are presented. (Research purpose) The research purpose is considering the technical support of distributed generation systems and analyzing possible problems that may arise during the integration of distributed generation sources into the electrical system of the agro-industrial complex. (Materials and methods) Used statistical data to analyze the availability of agro-industrial facilities with distributed electric power. (Results and discussion) It has been shown that the agro-industrial complex is dominated by objects that are far removed from the center of the energy system, with electrical equipment that is morally and technically outdated, which affects the reliability of power supply and the quality of electricity. It was determined that the introduction of distributed generation sources requires modernization or updating of the main electrical equipment of distribution points or substations. Alternative technical solutions have been proposed to improve the quality of electricity supplied to consumers and the reliability of power supply systems, focused on the maximum approximation of the power source to the consumer by placing distributed generation sources near the objects of the agro-industrial complex. They gave specific schemes of power supply systems, the results of technical and economic analysis and options for using traditional and renewable sources of electricity. (Conclusions) It was stated that the further development of the agro-industrial complex facilities is associated with an increase in the level of energy supply, reliability, energy efficiency and environmental friendliness of power supply systems through the introduction of modern distributed generation systems based on traditional, renewable and combined sources of electricity.
