dc.description.abstract |
Share of Non-Conventional Renewable Energy (NCRE), small hydro, wind, solar, bio-mass etc based electricity generation in Sri Lanka at present is 10% of the total annual generation. The Government of Sri Lanka has declared a national target of 20% from NCRE by 2020[1]. Most of NCRE power plants have been connected to the distribution network and are termed as Distributed Generators (DGs). With the increase of share of DGs, it affects system reliability, power quality and economic operation of the distribution network.
This paper focuses on the impact of economic operation of transmission and distribution network due to distributed generation in Sri Lankan power system. Network simulation studies have been carried out for transmission network and for four grid substations to which many DGs have been connected. The analysis revealed that transmission network losses have reduced with increase penetration of DGs to the system while distribution network losses are dependent on the amount of DG capacities connected to the distribution network. However, there is a reduction of network losses when overall network is considered thereby giving financial benefit from DGs added to the system. |
