Comparative Analysis of Different Micro Energy Resources Under Distributed Generation

Abstract

The renewable sources of energies are getting more attention due to limitations and gradual depletion of fossil fuels. Distributed generation which is a combination of both renewable and non-renewable sources of energies is becoming the prime attraction of researchers for its design and development. This paper attempts to present a brief comparative analysis of the different micro energy resources used in a typical stand- alone hybrid distributed generation. For proper selection of micro energy resources used in distributed generation reliability, cost and environmental degradation associated with the micro energy resources must be given due consideration for economic and efficient design and development.
