The potential integration of distributed generation in medium & low voltage grids: the applicability of power flow and hardware-in-the-loop tools for simulation and validation

Aguado Alonso, MónicaMentesidi, Konstantina2016-06-102019-12-1720142014-12-17https://academica-e.unavarra.es/handle/2454/20873The current thesis is dedicated to the penetration of DG technology into a MV/LV distribution network that may loosely represent an Island or autonomous power system since MV/LV levels are of high interest as most of distributed energy sources (DER) will be connected there. Two simulation tools will be utilised throughout this work to demonstrate the implementation of DG technology on distribution networks; the Siemens PTI, PSS/E software tool that allows for grid penetration and analysis studies and RTDS/RSCAD program that allows for real time simulations and execution of Power Hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) tests.272 p.application/pdfengTransmisión y distribución eléctricaDistribución de energíaGeneración de energíaFuentes no convencionales de energíaThe potential integration of distributed generation in medium & low voltage grids: the applicability of power flow and hardware-in-the-loop tools for simulation and validationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
