One of the global energy trends is the introduction of distributed generating facilities (distributed generation, DG). Therefore, the ongoing transformation of electric power systems (EPS) significantly changes the properties of power systems. Problems arise with ensuring sustainability, which is generally the main condition for validity and survivability of energy districts with DG facilities and EPS. Moreover, ensuring sustainability under remarkable perturbation remains one of the main tasks. This problem is mainly solved via mathematical modeling. However, the necessary EPS mathematical model of real dimension contains a rigid nonlinear system of differential equations of an extremely high order. Simplifications and restrictions, which reduce the completeness and significance of the obtained simulation results, are inevitably applied to improve the conditionality of the EPS mathematical model in numerical integration. Such an application requires verification. This article proposes a direction of verification alternative to the existing ones based on the use of a model standard instead of full-scale data. Such verification reveals the influence of the applied simplifications and limitations in numerical modeling on the quality of solving the sustainability estimation problems of an EPS with a DG under remarkable perturbation. The studies presented in this article are conducted using the example of an energy district with DG facilities included in EPS with real dimensions. The findings of these studies demonstrate the resulting errors of stability calculations under remarkable perturbation, the nature of their change and the causes of occurrence, as well as the influencing factors.
