Renewable sources of energy in distributed power generation

Abstract

Russia as the leading exporter of traditional energy resources is considering renewable energy sources (RES) as autonomous sources of energy, being the basics of a new direction which is being developed intensively now – distributed power generation. In autonomous energy systems based on RES power generation of RES is reserved by means of traditional power supplies. In this case there is a task to create a tracking inverter transforming direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC) according to characteristics of a parallel operating AC generator. An inverter designed in Bauman Moscow State Technical University can successfully solve this task and by means makes it real to connect AC and DC generators in order to sum up their capacities in a single electric system.
