Abstract

The active power distribution network operation under integration of different renewable distributed generations, storage units and dynamic loads is becoming of interest due to substantial benefit in maximizing the penetration of available renewable energy resources (RES). In this paper, an approach to maximize the penetration of RES like solar, wind etc. into active distribution system (ADS) by maximum utilization of existing solar photovoltaic inverters (SPVI) in the system is presented. Optimal utilization of SPVI may enhance the voltage stability of the ADS and wind power penetration into the system. Proposed SPVI control approaches are depended on active power generation of solar photovoltaic (SPVG), rating of SPVI, and required reactive power in the ADS. Optimal power flow embedded nonlinear optimization problem is solved to incorporate the SPVI control approach. The proposed approach is demonstrated on IEEE 33 node radial distribution system.
