Reliability Assessment of Distribution Network Considering Micro-grid Using Value- Based Method
نویسنده
چکیده
Using Micro-Grid (MG) as energy sources changes the reliability of distribution power systems. This paper studies the effects of MG on the reliability of a distribution power system. The method is based on the value-based method for a MG located in Iran. The obtained results show that when the MG capacity changes, then the reliability of the power system varies non-linear. Therefore, the optimal number of the fuel cell and photovoltaic units for maximum reliability can be obtained by using value-based method.
