Planning for Distributed Generation
Abstract
Distributed generation (DG) can be incorporated into distribution planning as an option along with traditional feeder and substation options. In place of rigid capacity planning rules, the planning process needs to incorporate more detailed simulations of capacity constraints and customer damage costs because utilities now assume more risk. Planning tools need to simulate load variations, contingencies, dispatch and control action to more accurately determine the capacity limits and related costs. This is especially important when considering DG because the siting and dispatch have an important impact on the benefits to the utility. Equally important is the evaluation of economic risk given uncertainties such as load growth. Because of the added complexities associated with these analysis techniques, the planning process must incorporate appropriate screening tools to determine the depth of analysis needed for particular projects, thereby making more efficient use of already scarce planning resources.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
