Abstract

Distributed Generation DG is a form of energy generation that services a customer onsite and supports a distribution network The DG is attached at the voltage of the delivery system The energy used for DG should ideally be sustainable DG may be used as a backup generator It contributes to the delivery network s increased reliability If the DG unit is placed optimally in the delivery network the increase in reliability will be greatest The system of installing disconnects at parts forming a junction in the distribution network affects the reliability changes attributed to DG communication with the distribution network Therefore there is a need to enhance Distributed Generation in Port Harcourt
