Distributed Storage Capacity Reservations in Microgrid for LV Network Operation

In the proposed approach, the amounts of reserved storage capacities are basically evaluated following two criteria: contribution of customers to network pressure and operational cost of storage battery. Besides, an optimal solution for allocating reservation amount is put forward through an enhanced mixed reservation algorithm. A case study is carried out in a practical network in UK to implement the proposed method for network pressure mitigation and investment deferral.
