Abstract

Distributed generation (DG) in the future will play an important role in the electricity supply systems, in wich can provide DG capacity from a few hundred kW to tens of MW. However, it is connected to the local power grid, DG will have certain influence on the power quality of the power grid. One of the most significant effects is that they will change the configuration of the local power grid as well as affecting the operation mode of the grid. This paper presents a method of finding the optimal open loop, analyzing and selecting the appropriate mode of operation to reduce power losses of power distribution networks that includes DG.
