“…Under the Township Electrifi cation Programme, more than 1,000 townships in nine western provinces were electrifi ed in just 20 months, bringing power to almost one million rural Chinese (NREL, 2004). Important to the success of China's rural electrifi cation efforts have been education of local and national decision makers, training and capacity building, technical and implementation standards and community access to revolving credit (Wallace et al, 1998;NREL, 2004;Ku et al, 2005).…”

“…There has been little prior exploration of China's capacity for PV innovation, how it is developing and how it might be improved. Existing studies of PV in China have either focussed on the demand side (see for instance: Wallace et al , 1998; Byrne et al , 2001) or on the development of those skills useful to install, operate and maintain imported PV systems (IEA‐PVPS, 2003; Ling et al , 2002). The few studies that have addressed industrial innovation in PV in China (Dai and Shi, 1999; Zhu, 2004; Zhao, 2004) have done so only descriptively and are used by this study as background information sources.…”

Under the ecological crisis, climate change threatens the survival and development of human beings, the total amount of industrial carbon emissions continues to increase, a serious threat to the harmonious development of man and nature, promote low-carbon economy and ecological civilization is imminent. Low-carbon independent innovation has become an inevitable choice for China to develop low-carbon economy, but also a powerful weapon for China to adjust its economic structure, cope with international competition and improve its comprehensive national strength. Independent innovation model as a way to improve the capacity of independent innovation experience, has become the key to achieving low-carbon independent innovation.

This paper discusses the interconnection of a Dis-a rural area or in a forested area where extension of the tributed Generator (DG) to an ac distribution system and a main system grid would be obstructed by environmental or microgrid using power electronics based back-to-back Voltage economic constraints. A microgrid could also be connected to Source Converters (VSCs). The DG is assumed to produce a the main system grid and exchange power with it. Utilities constant dc output voltage. The DG is connected to the microgrid geneall seste rirementexhat the wit of Utive through a VSC that ensures that the voltage of the microgrid is generally impose the requirement that the amount of reactive regulated to be balanced sinusoids having a fixed peak despite power injected into the distribution system should be minimal. the loads of the microgrid being unbalanced and non-linear. The This paper proposes the concept of a DG that supports a DG is also connected to the main ac system through another microgrid and also provides a prespecified amount of real VSC. The VSC interfacing the DG to the main ac distribution system controls the real power to be injected into the distribution power to the main system. The DG is assumed to produce system. The main system VSC also additionally performs as a constant dc output voltage. The DG is connected to a an active filter by compensating for non-linear and unbalanced typical 1 MVA, 11 kV distribution system and a 1 MVA, 11 loads that may be connected to the main distribution system load kV microgrid through back-to-back power electronics based bus. Control of both the VSCs have been described. The DG is icrogrid through baCkoa powe tronics asd seen to perform effectively even when the main distribution bus Volte Source converte VSCs step-up transformers and voltages are unbalanced and distorted. Simulations performed filters [5]. The switching of the VSCs are controlled so that the using PSCAD/EMTDC support the theory presented in the paper. DG can inject a desired amount of real and reactive power into the main distribution system and regulate the microgrid voltage Index Terms-Distributed Generation (DG), Voltage Source to be balanced sinusoids having a fixed peak. Moreover, the Converter (VSC), output feedback control. additional benifit of compensating for unbalance and nonlinearity of loads connected to the main distribution bus is also provided [6]- [9].
