Voltage Control Techniques for Electrical Distribution Networks Including Distributed Generation
نویسندگان
چکیده
For the last three decades, a large scale integration of distributed generation (DG) is beginning to change the electrical distribution network from passive to active. Consequently, technical difficulties are created by significant impacts generated by DGs with voltage variation being the dominant effect. This paper presents a comprehensive review of voltage control techniques on electrical distribution networks connected with DG, recommendations are provided in terms of enhancing network voltage stability and maximising the DG utilisation.
