As the rapid development of photovoltaic (PV) technology in recent years with the growth of electricity demand, integration of photovoltaic distributed generation (PVDG) to the distribution system is emerging to fulfil the demand. There are benefits and drawbacks to the distribution system due to the penetration of PVDG. This paper discussed and investigated the impacts of PVDG location and size on distribution power systems. The medium voltage distribution network is connected to the grid with the load being supplied by PVDG. Load flow and short circuit calculation are analyzed by using DigSILENT Power Factory Software. Comparisons have been made between the typical distribution system and the distribution system with the penetration of PVDG. Impacts in which PVDG location and size integrates with distribution system are investigated with the results given from the load flow and short circuit analysis. The results indicate positive impacts on the system interconnected with PVDG such as improving voltage profile, reducing power losses, releasing transmission and distribution grid capacity. It also shows that optimal locations and sizes of DGs are needed to minimize the system’s power losses. On the other hand, it shows that PVDG interconnection to the system can cause reverse power flow at improper DG size and location and increases short circuit level.
Impact of Distributed Generation on Energy LossNadineCroes
The aim is to give more insight into the effect of distributed power generation on energy loss. In most cases these distributed generators (DGs) are based on renewable energy such as solar panels and wind turbines, but there are also new technologies to increase efficiency such as the micro combined heat and power systems. Distributed generation can increase efficiency in the grid by reducing the distance between generators and consumers of electricity. The objective is to find an optimal mix of distributed generators (DGs) in a district so that energy loss is minimized and overload is avoided. The effect of using future electronic devices, such as electric vehicles, is also studied. To find an optimal mix of DGs a mixed integer quadratic programming model is defined and a case study is presented. The results indicate that the optimal solutions give substantial reductions in loss without overloading the system.
Renewable Energy Sources are being used in Off-Grid mode. By integrating all these sources to a common point energy efficiency can be improved and frequent dynamic faults can be avoided. This approach needs to implement smart grid and technologies.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to reduce power loss and improve the voltage profiles in an electrical system in optimal manner. The flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) device such as Distributed power flow controller (DPFC) can strongly improve the different parameters in a power system. DPFC can be used to reduce line losses and increase voltage profiles. The optimized allocation of FACTS devices is an important issue, so the Voltage stability index (L-index) has been used in order to place UPFC in power system. The advantage of the L-index is to accelerate the optimization process. After placing the DPFC, Firefly optimization method is used for finding the rating of DPFC. The results obtained using Firefly optimization method is compared with Genetic Algorithm. To show the validity of the proposed techniques and for comparison purposes, simulation carried out on an IEEE- 14 Bus and IEEE- 30 Bus test system for different loading conditions.
Keywords: Distributed power flow controllers (DPFC), Optimized Placement, Voltage stability index (L-index), Firefly optimization method, Genetic algorithm.

The high penetration of power electronic based distributed energy resources (DERs) has increased the importance and attention given to voltage security of distribution systems. Voltage control in the electrical power system is critical for a proper operating condition. Therefore, distribution systems must have the ability to maintain a secure voltage profile. Using inverters for Volt/VAR control (VVC) can provide a faster response for voltage regulation than traditional voltage regulation devices, such as transformer load tap changers and voltage regulators. The primary objective of this paper is to demonstrate how smart inverters can be used to eliminate the voltage deviation by solving a mixed-integer quadratic program to determine the amount of reactive power that should be injected or absorbed at the appropriate nodes. The proposed method incorporates capacitor banks connected to the network and determines whether to turn on or off the capacitor bank for voltage regulation. These processes will be demonstrated in several cases that are focused on mitigating voltage-dips and swells.

The issue of voltage stability has become predominant in larger power systems, since the
system is operated close to its capabilities in recent years. Addressing this concern considering the
economic constraints is a challenge .This draws attention towards the localization of the reactive
components that can improve the overall voltage profile in the system. This paper discusses a
methodology for suitable selection of position (bus) for the placement of capacitor bank wherein the
injection of fixed amount of reactive power is made to depict a picture of the overall improved
voltage in the system considering the stability aspect for respective injection at that bus. The reduced
jacobian is used to determine the impact of reactive power injection in the form of system voltage
improvement.
Impact of Positive Sequence Admittance and Negative Sequence Conductance of D...ijtsrd
Voltage fluctuations resulting from variable output power of renewable energy sources are strictly challenging power quality in distributed-generation systems. This paper presents a control method for distributed static synchronous compensator (D-STATCOM) to alleviate variation of both positive- and negative-sequence voltages. The D-STATCOM simultaneously operates as fundamental positive-sequence admittance and fundamental negative-sequence conductance to restore the positive sequence voltage to the nominal value as well as reduce the negative-sequence voltage to an allowable level. Both admittance and conductance are dynamically tuned to improve voltage regulation performances in response to load changes and power variation of renewable sources. A proportional“resonant current regulator with selectively harmonic compensation is realized to control the fundamental current of the D-STATCOM as well as reduce the harmonic current, which could be an advantage in practical applications due to high voltage distortion in low-voltage micro grids. Voltage-regulation performances are discussed for different D-STATCOM locations as well as different D-STATCOM currents. Computer simulations and laboratory tests validate effectiveness. CH.

Influence of Static VAR Compensator for Undervoltage Load Shedding to Avoid V...IJAPEJOURNAL
In the recent years, operation of power systems at lower stability margins has increased the importance of system protection methods that protect the system stability against various disturbances. Among these methods, the load shedding serves as an effective and last-resort tool to prevent system frequency/voltage instability. The analysis of recent blackouts suggests that voltage collapse and voltage-related problems are also important concerns in maintaining system stability. For this reason, voltage also needs to be taken into account in load shedding schemes. This paper considers both parameters in designing a load shedding scheme to determine the amount of load to be shed and its appropriate location .The amount of load to be shed from each bus is decided using the fixed step size method and it’s location has been identified by using voltage collapse proximity index method. SVC is shunt connected FACTS device used to improve the voltage profile of the system. In this paper impact of SVC on load shedding for IEEE 14 bus system has been presented and analyzed.

In this paper adaptive zone-based Volt/VAR management is proposed, which coordinates active
participation of DGs with conventional voltage regulation equipment. To achieve a flexible and scalable
solution while minimizing complexity and requirements for data-handling capability, DG management
systems are integrated with decentralized parts of the Volt/VAR management system in smaller
geographical zones. Coordination of DGs with conventional voltage regulation equipment is based on
predefined control hierarchies. However, to reduce requirements for data handling capability, the distribution
grid is divided into zones with individual voltage regulation and reactive support schemes. To add flexibility
and scalability, these zones can be combined into larger zones with a common Volt/VAR management
scheme. This is referred to as adaptive zoning. The results indicate that the control schemes successfully
restore voltage to within limits after disturbance of grid conditions. Adaptive zoning effectively reduces
system complexity and requirements for data handling capability, while still ensuring a grid-wide solution.
The proposed concept is implemented to hybrid RES method the simulation results are presented by using
Matlab/Simulink platform.

Machine learning for prediction models to mitigate the voltage deviation in ...IJECEIAES
The voltage deviation is one of the most crucial power quality issues that occur in electrical power systems. Renewable energy plays a vital role in electrical distribution networks due to the high economic returns. However, the presence of photovoltaic systems changes the nature of the energy flow in the grid and causes many problems such as voltage deviation. In this work, several predictive models are examined for voltage regulation in the Jordanian Sabha distribution network equipped with photovoltaic farms. The augmented grey wolf optimizer is used to train the different predictive models. To evaluate the performance of models, a value of one for regression factor and a low value for root mean square error, mean square error, and mean absolute error are used as standards. In addition, a comparison between nineteen predictive models has been made. The results have proved the capability of linear regression and the gaussian process to restore the bus voltages in the distribution network accurately and quickly and to solve the shortening in the voltage dynamic response caused by the iterative nature of the heuristic algorithm.

Small signal stability impact of utility PV with reactive power control on th...Power System Operation
With an increasing number of photovoltaic (PV)
inverters in the distribution system, their impact is no
longer negligible, especially in the aspect of dynamic
interaction. Accordingly, a comparison is done among
PV inverters of different reactive power control modes,
to determine their impact on the system voltage profile,
power loss and small-signal stability. Generalized
Nyquist Criteria (GNC) based on impedances in DQ
frames is used for stability assessment, which is validated
by time domain simulation results and also system
eigenvalues calculation results from MATLAB. From
these, guidelines are formulated to manage PV inverter
reactive power control strategies. Reactive power
control mode of volt-var Q=f(V) is preferred to other
reactive power modes to avoid voltage profile problem
and reduce power loss, but will induce small-signal
instability and cause PV terminal voltage oscillations.
There’s tradeoff between static influence and dynamic
impact in choosing the local reactive power control
strategies.

side".

11. ModalAnalysisforVoltageStabilityEvaluation
A system is voltage unstable if for at least one bus in the system
bus voltage magnitude decreases as the reactive power injection at
the same bus is increased.
other words, a system is voltage stable if V-Q sensitivity is
positive or every bus and unstable if V-Q sensitivity is negative
for at least one bus.

12. ReducedJacobianMatrix
The linearized steady state system power voltage equations are
given by-
∆P = incremental change in bus real power.
∆Q=incremental change in bus reactive power injection.
∆θ = incremental change in bus voltage angle.
∆V= incremental change in bus voltage magnitude.
10
13. at each operating point we keep P constant and evaluate
voltage stability by considering the incremental relationship
between Q and V. To reduce the above equations we assume
∆P= ∆P=0.
JR is called the reduced Jacobian matrix of the system. JR is
the matrix which directly relates the bus voltage magnitude and
bus reactive power injection.
11
14. The ith mode of the Q-V response is defined by the ith eigenvalue ,
and the corresponding right and left eigenvectors.
Since
Using this in ∆V, we get
By defining v=η∆V vector of modal voltage variation
q= η∆Q vector of modal reactive power variation
We can write uncoupled first order equation as-
12
15. Thus for ith mode voltage variation is -
Vi=1/ λi * qi
If λi >0 , the ith modal voltage and the ith modal reactive power
variations move in the same direction, indicating voltage stability of
the system.
whereas λi <0 refers to instability of the system.

16. The relative contribution of the power at bus k in mode
i is
given by the bus participation factor
Pki= ℰ ki* η ki
Participation factors determine the most critical areas
which
lead the system to instability.
Higher the magnitude bus participation factor
better be the remedial action taken too stabilize the
mode.

17. Continuouspowerflowmethodology
Determination of max loading is one of the most important problem
in voltage stability analysis that can’t be calculated by model analysis.
This uses successive solution, to compute the voltage profile up too
the collapse point
there jacobian become singular to determine voltage security margin

Application of the placement method and the corresponding indices are
examined on the well-known 33-bus radial distribution network.
The system total apparent load is 4.3694 MVA and DG penetration in all
cases is considered to be 40% (i.e., 1.7477 MVA).

28. Due to the radial nature of distribution networks, the buses of each
network branch, from the tail to the main feeder, usually have
participation factors in a descending order for a specific mode.

.
Application of the ranking method is examined on all candidate buses
obtained from the placement algorithm, bus 28 is the best site for reactive
power compensation in the case of shortage.
25
30. The places are ranked using an MERC method, which
determines a priority list of DG locations for reactive
power compensation during occasions of reactive power
shortage.
The placement algorithm is executed and remedial
effect of DGs, both in loss reduction and voltage profile
improvement in normal operation, and enhancement of
the loading parameter in the case of voltage instability
The ranking method is executed over the obtained
candidates to provide a priority list from the view point of
reactive power compensation in the case of shortage.

31. CONCLUSION
DG placement is different from the best location for reactive
power compensation and VSM in the presence of a voltage-
stability problem.
Long-term DG placement problem can be solved by CPF and
modal analysis while the short-term reactive power issues can be
addressed by the ranking method
