Advances in Distributed Generation Source Digital Twins Design

Abstract

The emerging power systems will be proliferated by different distributed generation sources and storage facilities. The adequate modeling of these novel facilities, and power systems in general, is of fundamental importance for the evolution of power systems since the appropriate models are the only tool that can feasibly be used to investigate such diverse and complex multi-domain structures. In other words, the development of digital twins of the distributed generation sources presents a prerequisite for advancements in several domains (technical, financial, social, ecological, etc.). This paper explains several modeling approaches and provides examples of how the models could be used.
