IMPACT OF DISTRIBUTED GENERATION ON THE ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION NETWORK OF TEXTILE FACILITIES: A SIMULATION-BASED APPROACH

Öz

As global energy demand continues to rise rapidly, traditional centralized generation and long-distance transmission systems are becoming increasingly insufficient. In this context, distributed generation (DG), which brings energy production closer to consumption points, is gaining prominence. One of the major advantages of DG systems is the local utilization of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power. While centralized systems are more vulnerable to natural disasters and technical failures, distributed generation diversifies energy supply and enhances grid resilience. In the near future, energy production is expected to be largely managed by consumers in a more flexible and interactive system. Accordingly, DG systems not only meet current energy needs but also play a key role in creating a sustainable, equitable, and robust energy supply. This study investigates the impact of distributed generation on the distribution grid of a textile factory. Using DIgSILENT PowerFactory software, load flow and short-circuit fault analyses were conducted to evaluate the technical effects of DG integration. The results are presented and analyzed comparatively.

DAĞITIK ÜRETİMİN TEKSTİL TESİSLERİNİN ELEKTRİK DAĞITIM ŞEBEKESİNE ETKİSİ: SİMÜLASYON TABANLI BİR YAKLAŞIM

Öz

Küresel enerji talebindeki hızlı artış, merkezi üretim ve uzun mesafeli iletim hatlarına dayalı geleneksel sistemlerin yetersizliklerini gün yüzüne çıkarmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, enerji üretimini tüketim noktalarına yakınlaştıran dağıtık üretim sistemleri giderek daha önemli hâle gelmektedir. Güneş ve rüzgâr gibi yenilenebilir enerji kaynaklarının yerel ölçekte değerlendirilmesi, bu sistemlerin en büyük avantajlarından biridir. Merkezi üretim altyapısı, doğal afetler veya teknik arızalar karşısında yüksek düzeyde kırılganlık gösterirken; dağıtık üretim, enerji arzını çeşitlendirerek şebeke dayanıklılığının artırılmasına katkı sağlar. Önümüzdeki yıllarda, enerji üretim süreçlerinin büyük ölçüde tüketiciler tarafından yönetildiği, daha esnek ve etkileşimli bir yapının hâkim olması beklenmektedir. Bu doğrultuda, dağıtık üretim yalnızca mevcut enerji gereksinimlerini karşılamamakta, aynı zamanda sürdürülebilir, adil ve dirençli bir enerji geleceğinin temel bileşenlerinden biri olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, bir tekstil fabrikasına ait dağıtım şebekesinde dağıtık üretimin etkileri araştırılmıştır. DIgSILENT PowerFactory yazılımı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilen yük akışı ve kısa devre analizleriyle, dağıtık üretim sisteminin şebeke üzerindeki teknik etkileri değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar karşılaştırmalı olarak sunulmuş ve analiz edilmiştir.
