Abstract :
Recent technology improvements in small generators and energy storage devices have provided a new opportunity for dispersed energy resources at the distribution level. At the same time, deregulation has encouraged a more decentralized approach to power delivery. This paper proposes some approaches to power system operations and control at the distribution level. A methodology for system security and associated operations is introduced. A simulation environment has been developed. Some results are presented showing the effectiveness of the new control methods
