Current power systems are not designed to support the massive integration of PV and to respond to the grid codes. The application of intelligent and online control methods for better coordination between all parts of modern electrical systems is very important.
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.
Some major standards for PV integration in distribution systems such as IEC 61727, IEEE 1547, and VDE-AR-N4105 are defined and used in to ensure that the power quality and stability defined by grid codes for PV sources connected to the grid are maintained.
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.
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.
