A Review of an Essential Role of the Distributed Power Generation- Applications and Challenges

Ali Mohammad Shams Ghadamgahi* and Zahra Hashemi

The installed capacity of the renewable energy resources has in increasing trend over the last few decades. Societies cannot only rely on the traditional sources of energy to meet the whole of the demand. The population and consumption patterns are increasing while the recently developed units work more efficiently. Renewable energy resources are the best currently available substitution for the traditional sources of energy. Wind turbine and solar PV panels have got a lot of attention to be installed in a hybrid power network. Wind turbine technology is more mature compared with the solar PV panels. Although, the negative effects of the renewable energy resources are negligible compared with traditional resources, a comprehensive study should be performed to clearly identify the possible challenges of the implication. This study focuses on the essential role of the distributed generators included wind turbines, solar PV panels, and energy storage devices as hybrid power network. The most important application and challenges of a hybrid power network will be discussed with respect to the smart environment.
