Distributed Generation and Resilience in Power Grids
We study the effects of the allocation of distributed generation on the
resilience of power grids. We find that an unconstrained allocation and growth
of the distributed generation can drive a power grid beyond its design
parameters. In order to overcome such a problem, we propose a topological
algorithm derived from the field of Complex Networks to allocate distributed
generation sources in an existing power grid.Comment: proceedings of Critis 2012 http://critis12.hig.no
