Adaptive Islanded Configuration for Quality Improvement in Power Delivery Systems with Distributed Generation

The use of decentralized electrical energy resources may be a useful support to the main power supply. In particular, in the event of an upstream supply outage, the temporary islanding operation of dispersed generators in distribution networks might greatly improve the quality and continuity of the power supply. The aim of this work is to verify the feasibility of temporary grid- disconnected operation of self-adaptive autonomous portions of distribution networks that use embedded generators. In particular intentional islanding of generation and loads is automatically carried out with an adaptive configuration that depends on the local generation/load state at the time of outage.
