Investigation of Sensitive Load Location for Incorporation of DG
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
In recent years with ever increasing load demand by customers and difficulties for construction of new power plants, transmission lines and substations, power distribution system is experiencing an urgent need of distributed generation (DG) sources. Employing DG in a distribution network has several advantages. While introducing DG in a network, it is essential to determine the adequate size, number and location of DG units. The poor selection of location would lead to higher losses than the losses without DG. There are several issues pertaining to interconnecting distributed generation to grid such as voltage rise, high losses, and negative impact on power quality, reliability and protection. All the issues can be eradicated only when a proper attention is given to find a suitable location of DG units. The poor selection of location would lead to higher losses than the losses without DG. Therefore, the aim of this paper is find a suitable location for the incorporation of distributed generation (DG) in a power system by carrying out a comprehensive study of the impact of load variation on active and reactive power losses. This will provide the information of those load sensitive location DG should be installed. The analysis of results shows that an increase in load always leads to an increase in losses but the degree of increase in losses is different for different load buses.
