Intelligent Local Grids for High PV Penetration

Detailed analysis of network losses in a million customer distribution grid with high penetration of distributed generation

“…At full asynchronism losses occur first for transporting DG power to neighbored grid areas or higher grid levels and second for bulk power supplying local consumers, e.g. off-peak heating systems loaded at night in local grids with PV surplus [5]. These losses could be avoided by smart grid operation.…”
