Effects of Centralized Battery Storage Placement in Low-Voltage Residential Distribution Networks with High Photovoltaic Penetration

摘要

In this paper, power flow simulation is used to investigate how centralized battery storage can aide in mitigating under-voltage conditions in highly PV penetrated residential network. It also investigates how the placement of the battery storage relates to the rating of the storage used. It is found the reduction in storage rating is quadratically proportional to the distance along the low-voltage distribution feeder.
