“…The objectives are to simultaneously achieve LM, VM, increase DG penetration (DG%), and associated benefits in LDN planning, respectively. Figure 1a illustrates a simple electrical equivalent loop model for the VSI evaluation of LDN [36] and is similar to one line diagrams based on three distribution lines as considered in [4,5]. The type I loop, being simple and feasible, is considered for a study where two radial feeders form a closed loop and is fed by the same power transformer [5,36].…”

This paper presents a new planning approach based on voltage stability index (VSI) together with improved loss minimization (LM) formulations. The method has employed for application of distributed generation (DG) unit placement (location and size) in a loop (configured) test distribution network (LDN). Initially, VSI relationship for equivalent loop model has employed to find out potential locations for DG placement in LDN. Later, loss minimization formulations and loss minimization conditions (LMC) have been derived on the basis of an equivalent electrical model of LDN, for single and two DGs operating at various power factors, respectively. The proposed approach is comprised of two variants and has demonstrated on the 69-bus test distribution network. The first planning variant as a single case has applied for DG allocation (location, size, number) in LDN under normal load. Similarly, the second planning variant has demonstrated with three cases (six scenarios per case), evaluated under normal load and impact of load growth (across five years), respectively. The proposed approach has analyzed in terms of various performance indicators and results obtained have compared and found in close agreement with existed works in literature. Simulation results verify the validity of the proposed planning approach and establish that LDN performs better than radial distribution network from the perspective of load growth.

“…The loop distribution network (LDN) is an upgraded version of the conventional DN under the application of an advanced power distribution system (APDS) [13,68,69]. Such a DN structure/topology is advocated over its radial counterpart, primarily due to better reliability than the radial counterpart, voltage stability, fault traceability and high DG/REG penetration, respectively [13].…”

“…Such a DN structure/topology is advocated over its radial counterpart, primarily due to better reliability than the radial counterpart, voltage stability, fault traceability and high DG/REG penetration, respectively [13]. However, higher upgrading cost constraints, upgraded protection requirements, advance automation, expected increase of short-circuit currents (SCCs), complex control needs and comparatively high losses usually ocurr in LDNs compared to traditional planning methodologies.…”

Smart Distribution Networks: A Review of Modern Distribution Concepts from a Planning Perspective

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Smart grids (SGs), as an emerging grid modernization concept, is spreading across diverse research areas for revolutionizing power systems. SGs realize new key concepts with intelligent technologies, maximizing achieved objectives and addressing critical issues that are limited in conventional grids. The SG modernization is more noticeable at the distribution grid level. Thus, the transformation of the traditional distribution network (DN) into an intelligent one, is a vital dimension of SG research. Since future DNs are expected to be interconnected in nature and operation, hence traditional planning methods and tools may no longer be applicable. In this paper, the smart distribution network (SDN) concept under the SG paradigm, has presented and reviewed from the planning perspective. Also, developments in the SDN planning process have been surveyed on the basis of SG package (SGP). The package presents a SDN planning foundation via major SG-enabling technologies (SGTF), anticipated functionalities (SGAF), new consumption models (MDC) as potential SDN candidates, associated policies and pilot projects and multi-objective planning (MOP) as a real-world optimization problem. In addition, the need for an aggregated SDN planning model has also been highlighted. The paper discusses recent notable related works, implementation activities, various issues/challenges and potential future research directions; all aiming at SDN planning.

“…The traditional system did not have a large number of interconnections, its demand was minimal and its most widely used topology was radial as it is easier to control. However, with the improvement of infrastructure, a closed topology, better control and monitoring was needed to ensure service [2]. Some benefits of the implementation of a Smart Grid worth mentioning are, on the one hand, there is a better distribution of electrical energy in a system which is controlled and monitored in near-real time with high-speed transmission, that is, it implies the existence of an advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) [1] [3].…”
