Abstract

The paper presents a comprehensive review of distributed generation integration in power systems. The paper gives detailed information about the distributed generation in eleven sections and some subsections. A brief introduction to power system operation is presented. In its distributed generation and its importance to the power system is described. The paper thoroughly defines distributed generation as far as power system is concerned. Impact and effects of distributed generation in the power system are well explained. The paper outlines classes, types, features, advantages, drivers, benefits, challenges, and application of distributed generation in the power system. The functional relationship between distributed generators and capacitors is given. Impacts, effects, and technologies of distributed generation in the power system are reported. Comparison between the two widely used renewable energy technologies for distributed generation is also included. The paper explains how distributed generation causes challenges to the protection of distribution networks. Voltage and frequency control with distributed generation penetration in the power system is part of this work. The information contained in this paper can be used as a foundation for many types of research concerning distributed generation.
