Building on its ongoing work to address widespread power outages in Michigan, the Michigan Public Service Commission today (April 13) announced it will conduct several technical conferences aimed . . .

With DER Aggregations, non-NEM DER participations, and Reliability Standards involving invertor-based DERs, such disputes should involve more, and more complex, issues.

With the rapid depletion of fossil fuel based resources and growing concerns related to climate change, significant development of renewable energy has been observed around the world. Reliability assessment of power systems is a key aspect to measure the impact of renewable distributed generation (DG) units on modern distribution networks. This paper proposes a Monte Carlo simulation based approach to investigate the influence of the stochastic nature of renewable and distributed resources inclu...
