An insight to distributed generation of electrical energy from various renewable sources

Abstract

This research paper includes the concept of distributed generation of electrical energy from various types of renewable energy sources. The distributed energy resources (DER) system is located near to the load which improves the security of supply. Due to this the transmission line costs and losses are also reduced. This will result in efficient utilisation of electrical energy generated and ultimately improve the energy efficiency in the power system. As the DER system uses renewable energy sources, it also reduces the environmental impacts.
