Abstract
The integration of energy storage systems (ESSs), co-located with distributed photovoltaic (PV) units in low voltage (LV) networks, offers new opportunities to support distribution system operator (DSO) in distribution network operations and management. The deepening penetration of renewable resources exacerbates the challenge to maintain demand-supply equilibrium. ESSs can tackle this challenge making PV resources dispatchable. Here, we apply a Monte Carlo analysis considering different residential load profiles and PV/ESS characteristics (e.g., penetration levels, locations, and capabilities) to assess the impact that two different control strategies have in supporting the DSO in improving the power quality of the distribution network.
