Distribution automation and control on the electric power system, volume II: proceedings

Conference · Thu Mar 01 00:00:00 EST 1979

OSTI ID:6809103

The meeting of the Distribution Automation and Control (DAC) Working Group was sponsored by the Department of Energy (DOE), Division of Electric Energy Systems, to provide a forum in which electric utilities could communicate with each other, with DOE, and with DOE's contractors regarding research, development, and demonstration efforts to apply DAC to the electric power system. In these discussions emphasis was to be placed on identifying the priorities and needs for DAC development. The subjects covered included the technical motivations for distribution automation; solar energy as an unconventional energy source; load management; economic and institutional factors; emergency controls, impact of controls on systems design, and related topics.
