Microgrids Reliability Evaluation with Renewable Distributed Generation and Storage Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a model for reliability evaluation of Microgrids with Distributed Generation based on renewable energy resources. In this approach, DG participates in the network operation coordination as an active agent and not as a decentralized generation under which the utility has no control. Stochastic models are considered for representing generation availability related to wind energy and solar energy. The use of storage is explored as a means of reducing supply intermittency by a specific model for representing the charge state. The influence of microgrids on distribution network reliability is evaluated considering also the probability of success of the islanding operation and the impacts of the storage systems on the power availability.
