Baselining Flexibility from PV on the DSO-Aggregator Interface

Flexibility can be used to mitigate distribution network overloading. Distribution system operators (DSOs) obtain this flexibility from market parties connected the network. After has been delivered DSO, it needs settled. This is typically done by comparing load measurements with a baseline. baseline describes an asset’s power profile in case no would have delivered. Until recently, baselining research mainly focused on large-scale, predictable and controllable assets. The DSOs however comes small-scale, less paper addresses problem for photo-voltaic systems. Three existing methods are selected based their simplicity transparency limitations respect application towards systems evaluated. Based this, proof-of-concept new, fourth method provided. It overcomes some of three ones, while still ensuring order promote acceptance practical applicability. All four subjected two different curtailment strategies: curtailing all peaks above threshold day-ahead request. Using weather data summer weeks 2019, shown that newly developed able provide more accurate than methods.
