Traditional central power supply and distributed generation have the advantages and limitations themselves. Micro grid technology can integrate the advantages of distributed generation and that makes for large scale new energy and renewable energy power generation system connected to the grid. First, the micro grid research background and significance are introduced in detail, then the current research situations of micro-grid at home and abroad are represented, in the end, the key problems and development prospect of micro grid are discussed emphatically.

PurposeThe power industry is the pillar industry of the Chinese economy, and also a major carbon emitter. The performances of both the production and operation of the power industry are crucial for a harmonious development of society. This study proposes an improved data envelopment analysis (DEA) model to analyze the sustainable performance of China's power supply chain (PSC).Design/methodology/approachTo analyze the sustainable performance of PSC systems in China's provincial regions, this study proposes a two-stage directional distance function (DDF) model. The proposed model not only considers the leader–follower game relationship between the power-generation system and the retail system, but also considers the factors that measure the sustainability level of the PSC.FindingsThe proposed model is applied to assess the sustainable performance of the PSCs of China's provincial regions. The findings are valuable and mainly include the following aspects: First, compared with other models, this study regards the intermediate variable of the power system as a freely disposable variable; therefore, the efficiency of the proposed model is more realistic. Second, the average efficiency of China's power retailing system is generally lower than the average efficiency of its power-generation system. Third, significant regional differences affect the power-generation efficiency, while the regional differences in power retail efficiency are not significant. The power-generation performances of PSCs in East China and Northeast China are generally higher than in other regions.Originality/valueThis study introduces the convex technique into a DEA model and thus proposes an improved two-stage DDF DEA model. In response to the game-theoretic inherent in power systems, this study also introduces the leader–follower game into the two-stage model. In addition to the theoretic novelty, all PSCs can be classified with this model. Moreover, specific recommendations for each type of PSCs are proposed based on the efficiency results, thus providing vital guidance for the practice.

The Distributed Generation can enhance the system power supply reliability and alleviate the pitch peak and restricted transmission capacity caused by large-scale wind power grid connection and other problems. In Fuxin, the system power supply is inadequate; the wind power integration is restricted and there are rich wind power reserves. Based on the current situation, this paper analyzes the necessity and feasibility of developing the distributed wind power in Fuxin and provides advisory opinions on the development sites and mode of wind power generation.

New energy power generation system needs interface converter to connect to the grid. Because the type of new energy is different, its interface converter is also different. In order to adapt to the diversification of the modeling and control strategy of the converter, a generalized interface model is established in this paper. The model is based on the electromechanical transient simulation, which ignores the physics switching device and simplifies the control module. Finally, adaptive verifications are made in PSCAD/EMTDC and Matlab/Simulink for photovoltaic power generation system and wind power generation system. The results of simulation prove the validity of the generalized model.
