Abstract

In Japan, CHP has been installed for energy saving for decades. Recently renewable energies such as photovoltaic cells and wind power are being installed with increasing speed. But such generators may influence to the stability of the electric system. To enhance the introduction of renewable energies, we have to reduce the influence to the stability of the electric system. It is important to make a good use of distributed generations to reduce the influence using information technologies.
