Coordination of Investor-Owned DG Capacity Growth in Distribution Systems.

This paper proposes a novel schematic approach for coordinating the selection of distributed generation unit investment proposals submitted by multiple, competing, private investors to achieve maximum investor participation while complying with the technical operational limits of the local distribution company. The concept of domains and commons has been used to identify the largest transgressors to system function, and forms the basis for revisions to the investor proposals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
