In addition, the voltage fluctuation and power quality issues may limit the PV penetration level and hence mitigation measures are needed to alleviate the potential problems. In this paper, the impact of PV on the distribution network in term of voltage performance and losses has been investigated by using the OpenDss simulator tool.
Therefore, it is of great significance to study the voltage control strategy of a distribution network containing PV. The most traditional reactive power voltage control in distribution networks is to use reactive power resources such as transformer taps and capacitor banks [6, 7] for regulation.
The distributed energy storage and photovoltaic are connected at the same node. The total load of the system and the active output of photovoltaic are shown in Figure 8. Figure 6. Schematic of distribution network structure and distribution of photovoltaic-storage system. Figure 7. Installed capacity of PV vs. peak load power. Figure 8.
Achieving energy balance within each region of the distribution network is facilitated through the collaborative strategy of photovoltaic storage. The voltage regional autonomy capability refers to the voltage regulation capacity of photovoltaic storage within each region of the distribution network.
In addition, in , to prevent overvoltage problems in power distribution networks, the use of the battery has an important role and three various scenarios for grid conditions, are tested as the voltage control mode, mitigating reverse power flow mode, and scheduling mode.
For distribution networks with increasing PV integration, a local voltage regulation approach is suggested in . A very short-term solar generation forecast, a medium intelligent PV inverter, and a reduction of the AP are reported as forecast techniques.
