Allocation of Feeder Usage, Losses and Peak Load in Distribution Systems with DG Using Shapley Value

Abstract

This paper presents a new method for quantifying and allocating the effects of distributed generation (DG) in distribution systems. The basic concept is the identification, accounting and sharing of what is referred to functions in the proposed methodology, which represent chargeable properties and are considered fair when investigating DG's remuneration. In this work, the functions that will be evaluated represent the impact of DG on the feeder usage, electrical losses, and peak demand of the distribution network. The allocation among local generating sources is performed using the Shapley value from the cooperative game theory. The proposed method is applied to the IEEE 33 bus test system and the results are fully discussed.
