Abstrakt: This paper presents a detailed comparative analysis between synchronous and induction machines for distributed generation applications. The impacts of these generators on the distribution network performance are determined and compared by using computational simulations. The technical factors analyzed are steady-state voltage profile, electrical power losses, voltage stability, transient stability, voltage sags during unbalanced faults, and short-circuit currents. The results showed that the best technical choice depends on the network characteristics, i.e., the main factors that may limit the penetration level of distributed generation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
