The installed capacity of photovoltaic (PV) systems globally reached 177 GW at the end of
2014. The annual rate of installations, 38.7 GW in 2014, continues to increase. A large part …

This paper proposes an effective sizing strategy for distributed battery energy storage
system (BESS) in the distribution networks under high photovoltaic (PV) penetration level …

Voltage stability is a major concern in many stressed power systems as shown by a number
of recent blackouts caused by voltage instability. In transmission systems the voltage …

Voltage regulation by means of coordinated voltage control is one of the challenging
aspects in an active distribution system operation. Integration of distributed generation (DG) …

This paper presents an analysis of the appropriate size and installation position of a battery
energy storage system (BESS) for reducing reverse power flow (RPF). The system focused …

We designed a battery energy storage system (BESS) based on the symmetrical concept
where the required control is by the symmetrical technique known as volt/var control. The …

This paper presents an overall evaluation of different reactive power control strategies in low
