Popis: Continued integration of distributed renewable generation, such as PV, pushes the power distribution system toward its capacity limits. The traditional solution has been to invest in upgrading the system infrastructure in order to accommodate the additional capacity required by these resources. This paper discusses an alternative solution by active control and management of these resources in order to defer the system upgrade investments. A cost analysis shows how the proposed method can be an economically preferred solution in comparison with the conventional approach.
