When distributed generation causes net reverse power flow on a distribution feeder, several voltage-related issues can occur. According to studies published by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory ...

For years asset managers have discussed the need to transition to a “next-generation” distribution model to offset industry-wide margin declines. Many have been slow to adopt more advanced data, ...

When it comes to DG assets, it’s not so much what you have, but how you use it. The total is often greater than the sum of its parts, and perhaps no better example exists in today’s electric power ...

In Part 1, we looked at how industrial-scale distributed generating plants (typically hundreds of kilowatts to tens of megawatts), powered by renewable energy, are playing an important role in ...

Distributed generation stands out in the Cuban power system, where there are hundreds of units dispersed throughout the country. In times of contingency, and as usually happens when a hurricane hits ...

For a majority of the United States' electricity and grid network's 100 plus year history, utilities have largely been unchallenged monopolies because of high barriers to market entry, among other ...

Brazil has reached a milestone in its distributed-generation solar capacity, with a total of 24 GW. Since April, it has deployed an additional 4 GW of distributed solar capacity. However, the third ...

Brazil has reached 37 GW of installed capacity in distributed generation (DG). The Brazilian Association of Distributed Generation (ABGD) projects a 20% growth in installed DG capacity in 2025, which ...
