An Approach to Quantify the Technical Benefits of Distributed Generation
Abstract
Recent changes in the electric utility infrastructure have created opportunities for many technological innovations, including the employment of distributed generation (DG) to achieve a variety of benefits. After a brief discussion of the benefits, this paper proposes a general approach and a set of indices to assess some of the technical benefits in a quantitative manner. The indices proposed are: 1) voltage profile improvement index; 2) line-loss reduction index; 3) environmental impact reduction index; and 4) DG benefit index. Simulation results obtained using a simple 12-bus test system and a radial system are presented and discussed to illustrate the value and usefulness of the proposed approach.

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.
