This survey paper discusses the fundamentals of power systems modelling in the presence
of large amounts of converter-interfaced generation (CIG). By referring to real-life events …

Among different sources of alternate energy, wind and solar are two prominent and
promising alternatives to meet the future electricity needs for mankind. Generally, these …

During recent decades with the power system restructuring process, centralized energy
sources are being replaced with decentralized ones. This phenomenon has resulted in a …

The proliferation of distributed energy resources is setting the stage for modern distribution
systems to operate as microgrids, which can avoid power disruptions and serve as …

Hydropower is one of the renewable energy sources having the highest conversion
efficiency than other renewable energy sources. The hydro turbine is considered as the …

The addition of distributed generation to a power system improves its performance. It makes
it more sustainable and efficient. But it also poses substantial challenges for designing a …

Microgrid, which is one of the main foundations of the future grid, inherits many properties of
the smart grid such as, self‐healing capability, real‐time monitoring, advanced two‐way …

This review paper is focused on the impact of distributed generation (DG) on distribution
system protection. The integration of DG is transforming the traditional radial distribution …

The power grid infrastructure has evolved from a centralized to a distributed model utilizing
renewable energy sources in the last few years. This trend is likely to continue, given the …

Conventional overcurrent protection schemes for radial distribution systems usually attempt
to coordinate a recloser at the beginning of the feeder with the fuses on the laterals. The …
