Intelligent network technology is the key to efficient use of distributed energy resources. The intelligent network is the future conversion for the techniques and strategies of production and the interaction of all the components of the electrical network. Noting that climate change is a major issue of concern, the world is now facing the increasing price of petroleum products, coal, etc., as well as reducing the cost of renewable energy systems. However, to achieve this task, it is necessary to address an efficient energy management system. In this context, the concept of smart grid plays a crucial role and can be successfully applied to energy systems.
In recent years, the use of renewable energy sources in the smart grid system has been increasing. The search for cleaner, greener and more reliable energy sources has considerable implications for the existing energy transmission and distribution system. Traditionally, power is generated in bulk and is distributed to large load centers through transmission lines. The transfer of power was always a form, which is from the utilities to the consumers. Now, in the immediate future, renewable energy sources can not support the entire network by themselves. So they have to be connected to the main network which acts as auxiliary power sources, thus reducing the overall load on the primary power generation units. They could also be used to serve load units totally isolated from the main network. An energy system that has wind turbines, micro-generators, fuel cell-based system and photovoltaic systems that increase the main power lines will constitute a distributed power generation (DG) system. In a DG system, end users should not only be passive consumers, but also be active providers of the network. Distributed generation (DG) is an alternative that is not only gaining momentum, but can also play an important role in meeting growing energy demands by using an alternative source of energy such as photovoltaics, wind, fuel, etc. the integration of renewable energy into the energy system is to minimize the environmental impact on conventional plants. The smart grid plays an important role here. The basic objective of the smart grid is to promote active customer participation and decision making, as well as to create the operating environment in which both public services and consumers can interact with each other. In smart grids, users can influence utilities by providing DG sources, such as photovoltaic modules or energy storage devices at the point of use, and react to price signals. In addition, utilities can improve reliability through demand-response programs by adding DG or power storage at substations, and providing control automation to the network.
