Paper Title
Reliability Analysis of Ranau Microgrid, Sabah, Malaysia
Abstract
This paper presents the reliability analysis of Ranau microgrid, a standalone microgrid in the district of Ranau, Sabah. Power flow for IEEE 9 bus also performed and analyzed. Power flow is defined as an important tool involving numerical analysis applied to power system using the Power Factory DIGSilent 14 software to calculate the power flow. Reliability analysis depends on the spinning reserves of the system. Adequate spinning reserves enabled a system to have a reliable operation. It is the amount of generation capacity that can utilized in a given time to establish the balance between load and generation. After the simulations and calculations, the analysis of reliability of the Ranau microgrid were presented.
