Resumen:
One of the major changes currently involving distribution network systems (DNSs) is the ever-increasing integration of renewable-based distributed generation (DG), wind and solar PV types in particular. This is dramatically influencing the planning and operation of distribution systems, in general. The traditional “fit-and-forget” approach is outdated. Current developments in the DNS would require new, efficient and robust planning and operation tools to support smooth integration of such DGs. The present work focuses on an optimal integration of renewable-based DGs with reactive power support capabilities. Accordingly, a stochastic mixed integer linear programming (S-MILP) model is developed that takes into account the optimal integration of RES-based DGs and reactive power sources. The developed model is tested using a standard IEEE distribution system. Test results show that integrating DGs with reactive power support capability significantly enhances voltage stability and improves the overall cost in the system. Simulation results show that setting the reactive power support capability of the RES-based DGs from 0.95 leading to 0.95 lagging leads to the maximum penetration level of wind and solar PV power in the system.
