Abstract
The aim of the DGFACTS project is to solve the set of quality of supply (QS) problems arising from the integration of Distributed Generation (DG) into the electric Distribution networks. Current power quality, efficiency and reliability, ensured by the utilities and supported by the use of powerful conventional generators, could dramatically decrease because of a more spread responsibility on the Grid Quality Management and the technical shortcomings because of the characteristics of the DG-units and the Distributed Generation Networks themselves. The project will introduce the use of the FACTS concept in distribution systems by designing a set of modular systems (DGFACTS) to optimally improve the stability and QS of each distribution network with high DG\RES penetration. In addition, the project will face the management of QS responsibilities in this new scenario.
