Distributed energy resources (DER), encompassing distributed generation (DG), energy storage systems (ESS), and controllable loads, is an effective technique for enhancing power distribution system reliability and power quality .
Distributed energy systems are an integral part of the sustainable energy transition. DES avoid/minimize transmission and distribution setup, thus saving on cost and losses. DES can be typically classified into three categories: grid connectivity, application-level, and load type.
Extensive research has been conducted on the optimized placement of distributed energy storage systems to improve the reliability and resilience of distribution power systems. However, several limitations and areas for improvement remain, as highlighted in prior studies.
An appropriately dimensioned and strategically located energy storage system has the potential to effectively address peak energy demand, optimize the addition of renewable and distributed energy sources, assist in managing the power quality and reduce the expenses associated with expanding distribution networks.
In particular, distributed-energy storage addresses a wide range of the above potential issues, and it is gaining specific attention from customers, utilities, and regulators. The potential of distributed-energy
