Environmentally constrained siting and sizing of distributed generation

Abstract


Distributed Generation (DG) technologies are gaining more popularity as an option to satisfy customer energy and capacity needs. On the other hand, DG technologies have the potential to provide better service at a lower cost in many applications since the extra capital expenditure in transmission and distribution grid reinforcement is avoided. Several researchers have worked on the problem of siting and sizing of DG resources within a power network. This paper discusses adding environmental constraints to assure the environmental benefits for DG addition.
