Energy Conservation and Loss Reduction Strategy of Active Distribution System with Distributed Photovoltaic Resources Considering Conservation Voltage Reduction

A Conservation Voltage Reduction Scheme for a Distribution Systems with Intermittent Distributed Generators

In this paper, a conservation voltage reduction (CVR) scheme is proposed for a distribution system with intermittent distributed generators (DGs), such as photovoltaics and wind turbines. The CVR is a scheme designed to reduce energy consumption by lowering the voltages supplied to customers. Therefore, an unexpected under-voltage violation can occur due to the variation of active power output ...

Energy Saving of Conservation Voltage Reduction Based on Load-Voltage Dependency

Abstract: Reducing voltage to reduce energy consumption, referred to as conservation voltage reduction (CVR), can lead to energy savings. Calculating the effects of reducing voltage requires accurate load models. This paper investigates a load-voltage dependency factor that can be measured via field experiments using common existing instrumentation. A relationship between the load-voltage depen...

Effect of Distributed Energy Resources in Energy Hubs on Load and Loss Factors of Energy Distribution Networks

In this paper, an attempt has been made to introduce a new control strategy including Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) and Diesel engine generator to control the voltage and frequency of autonomous microgrids. The proposed control strategy has multiple advantages over the recent control methods in microgrids. The proposed method applies the primary and secondary frequency control strategy...
