- Enhancing smart grid integrated renewable distributed generation capacities: Implications for sustainable energy transformation
- Abstract
- In the quest for sustainable energy transformation, the integration of renewable distributed generation (IRDG) within smart grids (SG) presents a promising avenue, yet it is fraught with multifaceted challenges that impede its full potential. The study delves into the intricacies of SG-IRDG, shedding light on the inherent issues that currently stymie its efficacy and widespread adoption. Chief among these is the inherent intermittency and variability of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, which pose significant challenges to grid stability and reliability. This unpredictability necessitates advanced grid management and energy storage solutions to ensure a consistent and reliable energy supply. Additionally, the integration of RDG into existing grid infrastructures demands substantial technological and infrastructural upgrades, alongside the development of sophisticated grid management systems capable of accommodating the decentralized nature of renewable energy sources. The study also highlights the regulatory and policy barriers that further complicate the SG-IRDG landscape, including outdated regulatory frameworks that are ill-suited to the dynamic and distributed nature of renewable energy generation. Financial constraints also emerge as a critical bottleneck, with the high initial investment required for SG-IRDG technologies and infrastructure posing a significant hurdle for both public and private stakeholders. Through a comprehensive analysis, this research underscores the imperative for a holistic approach that encompasses technological innovation, regulatory reform, and financial mechanisms to overcome these challenges.
