This is an introductory course for utility and consulting engineers to practice their peripheral knowledge of Distributed Generation Technologies and power distribution systems. There is a need to improve understanding of the various DG technologies, differences in operational and control characteristics, and interaction with power distribution systems. A brief overview is taught on modeling DG facilities, and caveats used in the conduction of load flow studies to assess grid impacts. Examples are cited to highlight a need for more advanced studies at times.
