Abstract

This chapter provides a framework for evaluating the probable technical performance of electrical distribution feeders with distributed energy resources (DERs). It covers the key aspects of the underlying problems associated with assessing the technical impacts of DERs: the scope of the technical variables, data requirements and modeling, the management of uncertainty, and methodologies for simulating impacts. The analysis of practical feeders with DER penetration is demonstrated through case studies utilizing a state-of-the-art tool combining a probabilistic load flow approach and a stochastic simulator. Analyzing the analysis of the simulation results using risk factors leads to conclusions regarding the susceptibility of networks to technical issues. These outcomes are useful to network operators in determining the capacity of existing networks to host DERs, which informs the regulations, and feeder planning and design.
