Protagonist of renewable energy in distributed generation: a review

Abstract

In the present scenario, world is progressing in the direction of energy crisis and severe ecological concerns due to the excessive utilization of non-renewable resources. Fossil fuel reserves are inadequate and produce hazardous geological contamination throughout the energy extraction. To meet such challenges, active amalgamation of renewable energy resources (RER) with distributed generation (DG) is the only way to progressing in future. Demand response scheme and battery storage is also essential for the reliable and consistent energy generation and efficient utilization. The role of RER in the evolution of DG is presented in this paper. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the barricades, reimbursements and influence of renewable energy based DG planning and framework. Moreover, a comparative assessment of renewable DG optimization based on optimization criteria and enhanced outcomes are evaluated for this futuristic atmospheric friendly approach.
