The reactive power imbalance that is flowing in a distribution network reduces the total amount of active power that can be transmitted and also incur voltage drop, increasing the network losses as well. In this work a study has been carried out on an IEEE 28 bus system with a varying load profile of a private power utility having a distributed capacitor placement. Thereafter the aim is to develop...
This paper discusses the challenges that can arise from the lack of coordination among the distribution optimization applications. It analyzes the optimization objectives and the corresponding control strategies of the individual optimization applications to illustrate the conflicts in both the objectives and the control logics among the applications. Typical operation scenarios are explored to demonstrate...
Electrical utilities strive for optimal grid operations while increasing efficiency and maintaining high reliability. With the advent of the Smart Grid, these objectives remain important worldwide. Recently many separate optimization applications for distribution grid operation have been deployed, including FDIR, IVVC, OFR, and DR. These applications may have been developed with sophisticated optimization...
Conservation voltage reduction (CVR) is one of the cheapest technologies that can be intelligently leveraged to provide considerable energy savings. The addition of renewables in the form of distributed resources can affect the entire power system, but more importantly, affects the traditional substation control schemes at the distribution level. This paper looks at the effect on energy consumption,...
