Definition: Dispersed generation is a decentralized power plant, feeding into the distribution level

power-grid and typically sized between 10 and 150 MW. (source)

Our electric utility infrastructure in this country is based on a system of large power plants feeding
power to customers through a vast transmission and distribution system, collectively known as the
grid. Dispersed generation is a concept where smaller, highly efficient power plants would be built
along the existing grid, close to the end-user customer. It is similar in concept to the move from large
central computers to desktop computers on a network.

Transmission Line is to Transmit power from one source to another.(sending End and Receiving End)
Tie Line is a kind of Back to Back transmission called sychronization.(now a days most popular
synchronization is by means of HVDC)
The Only main Difference,
The Power flow in a Transmission is fixed (ie) from sending end (source) to Receiving End (load)
The Power flow in a Tie line will flow in both the direction since both the sources are synchronized.

Plant Load Factor is the ratio of the actual output of a power plant over a period of time and its
output if it had operated a full capacity of that time period. Plant Load Factor = Gross Generation /
(Installed Capacity * Number of Hours)

AGC is control scheme which ensures that frequency deviation from the nominal value
is brought to zero, and the power flows between different areas in an interconnected
system are regulated.
The major means of voltage control in a power system is by generator excitation
control.
An exciter is usually controlled so as to regulate generator terminal voltage. The general
structure of a voltage regulator system is shown on the right. While the regulator
maintains voltage close to the reference value, an operator may also slowly change the
reference value itself if a change in reactive power is desired. A typical
excitation system also utilizes limiting signals which change the reference voltage so
that the generator works within its reactive power capability.
characteristics of special devices.

As per the Electricity Act 2003, the Regional Load Despatch Centre monitor grid operations, exercise
supervision and control over the inter-state transmission system, are responsible for optimum
scheduling and despatch of electricity within the region

While governors act relatively fast to arrest frequency decline, AGC is slow acting. While
governors can be present on almost all generators in a system, AGC is present only in
selected units.
