Active voltage control has been studied extensively in the past decade but only few real implementations have been realized although active voltage control can in many cases decrease the total costs of a distribution network and enhance the voltage quality. This paper discusses the barriers for active voltage control and also suggests measures to overcome these barriers. Also the development process of an active voltage control method is described.
