Abstract
- The expected impact of distributed generation (DG) into Smart Grid represents a great challenge of the future for power systems. In particular, the integration of DG based on renewable energy sources (RESs) in distribution networks, without compromising the integrity of the grid, requires the development of proper control techniques to allow power delivery to customers in compliance with power quality and reliability standards. This paper proposes a coordinated local control approach that allows distribution system operator (DSO) and independent power producers (IPPs) to obtain benefits offering the voltage regulation ancillary service to DSO and maximizing allowable active power production for each RES unit belonging to the same IPP. The control is based on a cooperation of data transfer between DSO and IPPs. In order to realize such cooperation, a nonlinear constrained optimization problem is formulated and solved by sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method. The validation of the proposed control technique has been conducted through several time series simulations on a real MV Italian distribution system. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
