Distributed Generation (DG) resources can effect a lot on the reliability parameters in industrial microgrids. So, reliability evaluation of industrial microgrids is presented in this paper using a proposed composite index in the presence of DG resources and demand response (DR). This procedure of the reliability assessment is based on sequential Monte Carlo method with respect to the time varying load model. In this paper, wind and photovoltaic generations those are useful renewable generations are used. Since, the output power of these DGs depends on wind speed and solar radiation that are stochastic variables, therefore a number of scenarios have been considered in order to determine the output power per hour for each of them. According to the large number of generated scenarios, scenario reduction method is used based on two conditions that consist of power generation of DGs and load. Here the new composite index represents changes in the SAIFI, SAIDI and EENS indices per each KW of installed DGs. With considering to industrial load growth in the microgrid, a ten-year period is studied and the scheduling is performed in both islanding and grid connected operational modes. The concept of DR is also used in the islanding operational mode. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, the approach is applied on a standard IEEE RBTS BUS2 system in the presence of DG resources and the results in different conditions are achieved.
