Abstract
The subject of this study is the development of an innovative tariff system for a public low-voltage direct current (LV DC) distribution network by Dutch distribution system operator Liander. Today's distribution networks face numerous transformations. The increasing penetration of distributed renewables and storage systems, which generate DC power or require an intermediate DC stage, and the growth of appliances, based on power electronics and consuming DC power, bring to the possibility to use DC distribution networks. Liander is developing a public LV DC distribution network, which will connect DC supply with DC demand in the most efficient way. For this local DC network, Liander is developing a new tariff system, which will contribute to reduction of integral social costs for both the customer and the distribution system operator. A new tariff system will offer incentives, which will stimulate customers of a local DC grid to collaborate and to balance with each other. This study sketches contours of a new tariff system and describes the basic elements of this system.
