Overvoltages in low voltage (LV) feeders with high penetration of photovoltaics (PV) are
usually prevented by limiting the feeder's PV capacity to very conservative values, even if the …

This paper demonstrates how reactive power injection from distributed generators can be
used to mitigate the voltage/VAR control problem of a distribution network. Firstly, power flow …

Distributed energy resources (DE) or distributed generators (DG) with power electronics
interfaces and logic control using local measurements are capable of providing reactive …

The penetration level of a photovoltaic (PV) system is often limited due to the violation of
voltage variation introduced by the large intermittent power generation. This paper …

The PV penetration level of a distribution system is often limited by the violation of voltage
variation caused by large intermittent power generation. This study investigates the use of a …

Energy demand has constantly been on the rise due to aggressive industrialization and
civilization. This rise in energy demand results in the massive penetration of distributed …

This paper proposes a plug-and-play control method to coordinate multiple distributed
energy resources (DER or DE) to regulate voltages in future distribution systems with a high …

As non-controllable and intermittent power sources, grid-connected photovoltaic (PV)
systems can contribute to overvoltage in low voltage (LV) distribution feeders during periods …

Energy saving in a distribution system through minimization of power losses is a crucial task
for cost-effective operation. One of the most effective approaches in minimizing losses is …

Renewable energy sources are expected to have a considerable share in the global energy
mix over the next years and consequently further research is required to enhance the …
