“…In order to meet the Paris agreement targets for holding the increase in global temperatures to below 2 °C above preindustrial levels, and 80% carbon reduction target (compared to 1990 levels) by 2050, several effective solutions have been developed and one of which is to integrate Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) into the utility grid and develop a range of Distributed Generation (DG) technologies. The DGs can achieve enhanced flexibility and security, along with decreased peak demand, reserve margin, and transmission network losses [2]. Fig.…”

The concept of generating electricity from renewable sources has been developed to solve the problems raised by environmental pollution and diminishing fossil fuel resources. Integration of clean renewable generation into existing electrical systems has been proven to benefit both power system operators and customers. However, a number of technical and economic challenges still exist with regards to effective integration and optimal utilization of such sources. One of the issues much debated recently is the provision for islanded operation in distribution networks utilizing the locally available generation. There are many obstacles and challenges concerning technical, economic and regulatory aspects of islanded operation which attract a significant amount of research worldwide. This review paper covers the stateof-the-art in research on islanded systems, specifically concerning: generation control, islanding detection, protection, and other functions such as power-sharing and black start capability.
