“…Recently, power electronic based VAR compensators have been considered as an ideal candidate to adopt on such a feeder in order to address the voltage variation issues affectively [9][10]. The main advantage of the DVC is its capability to quickly respond to voltage variations by rapidly adjusting the reactive power injected into the node it is connected to.…”

“…Hence, these devices respond poorly to voltage variations caused by fast power variations from PVs during a cloudy day. Recently, power electronics based VAR compensators have been proposed to address these challenges, as they can respond to voltage variations much faster and thus provide much more effective VAR compensation on a distribution system [9][10].…”

This paper investigates the impact of high penetration Photovoltaic (PV) systems on the voltage profile of a distribution feeder. The paper shows that power fluctuations caused by intermittent PV output can affect the operation of volt-VAR devices and cause unacceptable voltage variations on the feeder. The paper also investigates the adoption of a Dynamic VAR Compensator (DVC) to mitigate these impacts. Simulations performed on a prototype feeder indicate that the DVCs will be quite effective in smoothing out even the fast voltage variations caused by cloud cover on the PV systems.
