Abstract

The increasing connection of distributed generation at distribution levels from a certain penetration level may not only influence the operation and design of distribution systems, but affect to the operation and stability of transmission system as well. This paper aims to study the impact of distributed generation on the frequency and voltage stability. The results show that depending on the penetration levels and DG technologies, the impacts are different.
