DESCRIPTION:Increased use of converter interfaced Distributed Energy Resour
 ces offers new opportunities and challenges in the power system networks. 
 Microgrids integrating Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and Energy Storage S
 ystems (ESS) are being increasingly deployed not only to provide clean ene
 rgy access to remote communities and strategic/building complexes\, but al
 so to increase resiliency and reliability of supply\, provide flexibility 
 and back up power to the main network while helping in addressing the glob
 al environmental concerns. Operation of Smart Distribution Systems integra
 ting microgrids\, renewable sources and storage require proper control and
  protection systems to be designed. Advance Distribution Management System
 s (ADMS) are required to ensure optimal power sharing\, storage management
 \, maintaining required power quality and stability of supply.\n\nThe main
  focus of an ongoing Indo-US joint project ‘UI-ASSIST’\, involving 31 
 consortia partners from US and India\, is to evolve model for future smart
  distribution networks integrating RES\, ESS and microgrids. Both India an
 d US teams are also setting up field demonstration pilots\, five in each c
 ountry\, containing microgrids under rural\, semi-urban and urban settings
 . This talk will briefly discuss the technical details and challenges face
 d in developing Smart Distribution Systems and will share experiences in s
 etting up rural\, urban and semi-urban pilots in India by the UI-ASSIST te
 am.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE PES\, IEEE IAS\, IEEE PELS\, IES society\n\nS
