Non-Bias Allocation of Export Capacity for Distribution Network Planning With High Distributed Energy Resource Integration

A novel distributed energy resources (DER) allocation method focused on grid constraints that avoids topological bias is proposed for distribution networks. technology-agnostic approach used, where a non-bias of export capacity (NAEC) not specific to generation type calculated. Moreover, the NAEC extended from an into hosting (HC) using statistical approach. The methods are tested IEEE 33-bus system, and two typical Irish feeders -one urban, one rural- as case studies. Using high-resolution year-long quasi-static time series simulation (QSTS) three different profiles, validated against current practices state art in terms active balancing, security supply, interactions between users, operational concerns, fairness. Results show equivalent or higher level DER penetration achieved methodology. There no additional constraint violations methodology, moreover, slots with reduced, improving supply. Furthermore, results suggest avoiding makes network accessible more prioritises self-consumption.
