In European member states renewables-based electricity generation (RES-E) and co-generation of electricity and heat (CHP) are eligible for typically technology-specific MS support schemes. This drives the growth of distributed generation (DG) - this are generators connected to the electricity distribution grid - to significant levels. Most member states implemented specific regulation to allocate...
Effective integration of distributed generation (DG) in distribution networks can be stimulated by providing adequate economic signals to inform DG developers and operators about the preferable locations and the value of DG in the context of providing network flow control services and deferring network reinforcement. DG which contributes positively in the reduction of network investment cost should...
This paper discusses distribution network pricing and the critical role that it plays in the economic and technical integration of distributed generation (DG) into power systems. The central point of DG integration is first of all to quantify the extent to which different DG technologies can replace network assets as well as the extent to which DG can be said to drive investment in network capacity...
Distribution network development planning is a complex task due to the size of a typical distribution network, the interconnectivity of its elements and the presence of various uncertainties. This planning process becomes even more complicated due to the constant pressure to reduce distribution network capacity reserve, operation and maintenance cost, and to postpone the capital investments as far...
This paper assesses the economic benefits of DG and how incentive schemes and technical constraints can affect those benefits. DG can possibly reduce network power flows and losses and some DG can have carbon saving benefits, on the other hand DG can sometimes breach technical limits and therefore need to be constrained. The technical limitations such as line loss, voltage, line flow, fault limits...
