Impact analysis of Photovoltaic Distributed Generation and Plug-In Electric Vehicles in a LV distribution network through the evaluation and application of the Non-Synthetic European LV Test System

Abstract

In this work, an altered version of the Non-Synthetic European Low Voltage Test System, from Koirala et al.) is built. Distributed PV generation and PEV representative loads are implemented and simulated in a daily time series power flow analysis for different penetration levels.The results obtained from the stress test comply with the assertions of prior studies, with some exceptions. To accommodate a high PV penetration, the implementation of coordinated control in the grid is mandatory.ope
