This paper presents an overview of the impact of high penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems in low-voltage distribution networks (LVDNs). High integration of solar PVs in the LVDNs has severe implications on the system parameters, efficiency, and stability. This paper also introduces the methods that have been driven to overcome these effects to preserve the steady-state conditions in the system during excessive penetration of PV generation units. A comparison between the contributions and shortcomings of the most recent researches for overvoltage mitigation strategies has been driven. Also, it includes comparing different overvoltage mitigation methods to handle the impact of the overvoltage under high penetration of PV units in the LVDNs. Besides, it presents a comparison between overvoltage mitigation methods based on their pros and cons.
