Distributed Generation in Future Grids: Will 'Energy Islands' Become a Reality?

By Hans De Keulenaer / Published on Sun, 2005-05-22 00:00

Johan Driesen, Ronnie Belmans, K.U.Leuven, ESAT-ELECTA, Belgium

In modern distribution grids, more distributed generation technologies emerge. The most far-going implementations are ‘energy islands’ with a high degree of autonomy from the central grid. This paper considers different technological barriers that emerge with increasing penetration of such systems: power quality, control problems, safety issues, environmental aspects, the availability of primary energy resources and economic aspects.

Power Quality: Interactions Between Distributed Energy Resources, the Grid, and Other Customers

By Hans De Keulenaer / Published on Wed, 2005-05-11 00:00

Math H.J. Bollen, Mats Häger, STRI AB, Sweden

This paper presents the three aspects of power quality concerning distributed energy resources (DER). The voltage quality experienced by a DER unit impacts the performance of the unit: bad voltage quality may reduce the life length of the unit and lead to incorrect operation or tripping.
