Abstract:
This chapter analyzes the reasons behind the widespread adoption of distributed generation in distribution systems. It presents the problems that can arise from high penetration of distributed generation in distribution networks. The hosting capacity is calculated—that is, the maximum amount of distributed generation that can be integrated into a distribution system while maintaining system performance within acceptable limits. A methodology is established for calculating the hosting capacity of distributed generation units in distribution networks, based on criteria such as overload of distribution lines and voltage rise at nodes. The methodology for determining the optimal location for installing a distributed generation unit on a distribution feeder with distributed load is also presented.
