A review on islanding operation and control for distribution network connected with small hydro power plant
Hydro power generation is the oldest generation and provides the largest contribution among the renewable energy types of generation. In distribution system, most of the distributed generation (DG) is small scale hydro generation of which utilizes the natural flowing water of the river. This generat...

| Summary: | Hydro power generation is the oldest generation and provides the largest contribution among the renewable energy types of generation. In distribution system, most of the distributed generation (DG) is small scale hydro generation of which utilizes the natural flowing water of the river. This generation requires governor and excitation control unit to control and sustain the power generation when subjected to any changes of load behavior. More advanced control strategy is critically expected when considering the recent interest in distribution system to perform islanding operation of DG. Many of the literature have clearly highlighted this issue, but only a few have discussed on the islanding operation of small hydro generation. This paper therefore reviews this topic and relates the discussion with the controller designed for other type of turbines interfaced with synchronous generator. To strengthen the knowledge on islanding operation, the background of islanding is also presented in this paper. |
