Comparison of point-of-load versus mid-feeder compensation in LV distribution networks with high penetration of solar photovoltaic generation and electric vehicle charging stations

Comparison of point-of-load versus mid-feeder compensation in LV distribution networks with high penetration of solar photovoltaic generation and electric vehicle charging stations

Increasing use of distributed generation (DG), mainly roof-top photovoltaic (PV) panels and electric vehicle (EV) charging would cause over- and under-voltage problems generally at the remote sections of the low-voltage (LV) distribution feeders. As these voltage problems are sustained for a few hou...
