Microturbines are a relatively new distributed generation technology. Combined heat and power, known as cogeneration, can be considered the most economical attractive investment in microturbines. Latest technologies and increasing energy prices are propelling this technology to the forefront....

The time-varying demand and stochastic power generation from renewable distributed generating resources necessitate an exhaustive assessment of distribution feeder parameters for the purpose of long-term planning. This paper proposes a novel formulation of probabilistic load flow for...

Continuity of electricity supply with renewable distributed generation (DG) is a topical issue for distribution system planning and operation, especially due to the stochastic nature of power generation and time varying load demand. The conventional adequacy and reliability analysis methods...
