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 ...

Synchroinverters are a special kind of smart inverter that mimics a synchronous generator and are able to avoid grid voltage frequency fluctuations and faults by responding dynamically and ...

California and other locations are moving to renewable energy at high speed. But even in these forward-leaning areas, there is still an active debate about which renewables and where. Part of that ...

WASHINGTON ― Net metering practices should be revised to reflect the value that distributed electricity generation ― for example, electricity generated by rooftop solar panels ― can provide to society ...

Many utilities use direct transfer trip (DTT) for disconnecting/reconnecting distributed generation sites – e.g., solar PV. Let us review a real-life application ...

The potential of distributed energy resources to radically transform how utilities manage their T&D systems has been recognized throughout the industry. To take advantage of this potential, Southern ...

Experts from several top electronics companies discuss how requirements are changing for distributed generation equipment, and the new semiconductor technology that’s helping solve those issues. In ...
