ABSTRACT

With the growth of distributed generation (DG) and renewable energy


resources the power sector is becoming more sophisticated. Distributed generation
technologies with their diverse impacts on power system are becoming attractive area
for researchers. Reliability is one of the vital areas in electric power system which
defines continuous supply of power and customer satisfaction. Around the world
many power generation and distribution companies conduct reliability tests to ensure
continues supply of power to their customers. Most of reliability problems in power
system are due to distribution network. In this research reliability analysis of
distribution system is done. The interruption frequency and interruption duration
increase as the distance of load points increase from feeder. Injection of single DG
unit into distribution system increases reliability of distribution system, injecting
multiple DG at different locations and near to load points in distribution network
further increases reliability of distribution system, while introducing multiple DG at
single location improves reliability of distribution system. The reliability of
distribution system remains unchanged while varying the size of DG unit. Different
reliability tests were done to find the optimum location to plant DG in distribution
system. For these analysis distributions feeder IEEE 33 bus test system is selected for
case study.
This work presents a novel design of microgrids which are named as clusters
of Distributed Generation (DG) resources employed to cater power requirements of
distributed loads in isolated and grid-integrated modes. The idea of optimal modelling
of microgrids has become a key research topic in the smart grid technology,
referencing strategic and systematic calculations. A bulk distribution system can be
divided into various microgrids to deploy powerful control and development
foundation in future distribution systems as framed by the IEEE Standard 1547.4. The
design of large distribution systems through multiple microgrids with reliability
enhancement has not been addressed in existing literature. To makeup this gap, this
work presents an improved method for modelling multi-microgrids by considering the
system reliability. This methodology examines the behaviour of system during
temporary faults, for system reliability by strategies for probabilistic reliability index.
The loads are variable by deploying various DG types. Problem formulation,
proposed conceptual plan and solution methodology are explained in this study. The
standard IEEE 33-bus and 69-bus distribution systems are considered for reliability
assessment as the test system. The impact of optimization coefficients on the
proposed system and the robustness of the developed methodology are reviewed in
this assessment.
DG is expected to play an increasing role in emerging power systems. One of
the major issues in the planning stage for future distribution systems is the optimal
design of multiple micro-grids (MMGs) in distribution systems. This work describes a
novel method for clustering a traditional passive distribution system into a cluster of
Multiple Micro Grids (MMGs). Clustering a traditional distribution system into
MMGs provides numerous benefits for consumers and distribution system operators,
including a local control strategy to minimise interaction between different MGs,
local reactive power compensation to minimise power losses, preventing fault
propagation, and ultimately improving system reliability. In each MG area, DGs and
reactive power resources are installed to meet the acceptable level of reliability. The
proposed clustering procedure is based on a weighted graph partitioning method, with
the weights representing the apparent power of the lines. Various reliability tests were
performed to determine the best location for DG penetration in the distribution
system. The passive distribution system becomes an active system after DG
penetration. As a result, planners must investigate the impact of DG on distribution
system reliability. The objective of this work is to investigate the impact of DG on
distribution system reliability. The results on the test distribution system demonstrate
the proposed method’s performance and effectiveness.

This study aims to transform conventional power distribution systems into


autonomous microgrid networks by sizing and placing distributed generators
optimally (DGs). First, N main DGs are placed to create an autonomous microgrid.
Second, all possible combinations of initially deployed DGs are made, then 1 to N-1
DG outages are considered. The network's resilience is analysed by removing DGs
one by one. This step analyses load shedding, network power loss, and voltage limits.
Based on the resiliency analysis, additional DGs are added to the transformed
network. In first and second step DG sizing and siting are investigated using heuristic
methods (particle swarm optimization and genetic algorithm). The formulation aims
to reduce load shedding, active and reactive power loss, and network voltage
fluctuations during DG outages.
PREFACE

The function of an electric power system is to satisfy the system load


requirement with a reasonable assurance of continuity and quality. The ability of the
system to provide an adequate supply of electrical energy is usually designated by the
term of reliability. The concept of power-system reliability is extremely broad and
covers all aspects of the ability of the system to satisfy the customer requirements.

Reliability is a key aspect of power system design and planning. This research
presents reliability constrained planning for radial operated (with respect to
substation), electrical distribution systems through the integration of Dispersed
Generation (DG) units. The application of distributed generators for electrical
distribution systems is a new technology.
Dispersed Generation or Distributed generators (also known as Distributed
Resources) come in many forms including gas turbine driven synchronous generators,
wind powered induction generators, fuel cells with inverter circuitry, and others. The
use of distributed resource generation is projected to grow. This growth is due to cost
reductions available with distributed generators. The cost reductions may be the result
of released system capacity or reductions in generation costs at peak conditions.
Most of previous research has been focused on transmission system reliability.
This research focuses on distribution system reliability. This work extends previous
research, which demonstrated indices used in describing power system reliability
calculations.
One aspect investigated here is the effect of Distributed Generators (DG) on
power system reliability. Standards for connecting DGs into distribution systems are
just being developed and issues related to existing DG interconnection practices have
been discussed.
The placement of distributed generation and its effects on reliability is
investigated in this work. Previous reliability calculations have been performed for
static load models and inherently assume that system reliability is independent of
load. The study presented here evaluates improvement in reliability over a time
varying load curve. Reliability indices for load points and the overall system have
been developed. A new reliability index is proposed. The new index makes it easier to
locate areas where reliability needs to be improved. The usefulness of this new index
is demonstrated with numerical examples subjected to various case studies.
