Abstract: To meet needs of electricity in rural India, there is an alternative option to be searched as the traditional ways and present approach which is renewable energy based and decentralized. While considering for options in the renewable energy sector for this purpose, such as bio-energy technologies are being explored. This work basically is intended to minimize the problems and difficulties involved in the generation of power by biomass combustion technique. The work behind this paper is to conduct a power system analysis of a 6 MW biomass power plant to calculate an impinging force advantageously placed distributed or embedded generation on distribution systems using an iterative power system simulation tools as regards the load flows, short circuit or fault studies, relative protective relay co-ordinations. This paper is based on modeling of single line diagram and simulates it through Electrical Transient Analyzer Program (ETAP) software. This work is investigated and resolved the problem to build the required confidence that a high penetration of biomass power plant connected to the grid is both realistic and secure.
