“…Different automation schemes provide different levels of reliability. Identifying the most appropriate feeder automation scheme represents a challenge for the distribution system planning [104]. Therefore, techniques need to address the impact of the automation schemes on distribution system reliability and some methodologies were proposed in [105,104,106] to deal with this purpose.…”

Apparent power in the soft-open pointVoltage magnitude and angle at bus i Chapter 2Literature Review: Reliability Assessment of Active Distribution NetworksReliability assessment tools are of crucial importance for planning power distribution systems. In recent years there has been an increased deployment of renewable energy, distributed generation, energy storage, electric vehicle, protection device automation and demand response schemes in the distribution system, leading to the creation of the term Active Distribution Networks (ADNs). All these technologies contribute in their own way to the network reliability. The objective of this chapter is to provide a critical literature review of the reliability assessment techniques used for the evaluation of distribution networks, emphasising the importance of an increased penetration of distributed energy resources and a more widespread application of control, protection and communication technologies. A detailed analysis and a comparison between different techniques used for the reliability assessment will be provided for each technology. Most of the content of this chapter has been already published in [10].

“…In spite of this fact, distribution systems have received less attention than generation and transmission systems. However, as business attention changes from consumers to customers, focuses are moving toward distribution in recent years [1]. Nowadays, the regulators examine the incentive-based mechanism to induce the EDUs to improve the system reliability.…”

“…The decision-making process about the network either upgrading itself or accepting penalties are evaluated in this paper. Distribution automation has been recognized as a way to use appropriate technology intelligently to enhance the reliability at lower system-operation cost [1]. Therefore, the effect of RPS on different automation schemes has been studied to show which automation scheme should be taken.…”

This paper investigates the effects of service quality regulation on investing in distribution automation. Among different regulatory instruments for quality regulation, the Reward-Penalty Scheme (RPS) has been selected to evaluate the effect of monetary incentive on behavior of Electric Distribution Utility (EDU) for service reliability. By implementing different automation strategies, the value of enhancing reliability indices and consequently the value of rewards and penalties are calculated for each strategy. For achieving to more realistic outcome, ten years horizon is considered. Furthermore, in the calculation of reliability indices, the time varying failure rate of components is taken into account. The proposed approach is applied to the Swedish Urban Reliability Test System to show the effectiveness of the proposed technique. This paper can be useful for decision makers in EDU to select the best automation strategy to maximize the utility profit in the presence of service quality regulation.
