Distributed Generation and its Impact on Distribution Generation. Power generation using the renewable energy sources

      Аннотация: Distributed Generation is an approach that employs small scale technologies to provide electricity close to the end users of power. DG technologies often consist of modular generators and they offer a number of potential benefits. In many cases, distributed generators can provide lower cost electricity and higher power reliability and security with fewer environmental consequences than traditional power generators.The Distributed Generation (DG) is a small generation unit whose production capability varies from few kW (kilowatt) to several MW (Megawatt) and it is based on renewable sources of energy like solar energy, wind energy, tidal energy, biomass etc. As we already know that the demand of the electrical power is increasing day by day in a non- linear fashion with the time. Therefore, today’s engineers are looking for an alternate source of energy that can handle the increased energy requirement effectively as and when needed. Distributed generation is a boon in today’s scenario...
