  • Abstract
    This paper presents a new methodology to determine the firm capacity of distributed generation units (DGs) connected to electrical distribution networks, using the risk analysis tool Value at Risk (VaR). The stochastic nature of wind and photovoltaic generation can be represented through Monte Carlo simulation. These results were used to analyze the impact of DGs on the feeders´ peak demand value.
