In recent years, the diffusion of photovoltaic distributed generation (PVDG) has played a key role in achieving climate and energy policies goals. This increase stems from both the decline of technology costs and also from the support policies adopted worldwide. Yet, the achieved diffusion levels and the related impacts vary across locations.
Distributed photovoltaic systemsoffer a solution to the demand for electricity and also the margining concern for cleaner and more secure energy alternatives that cannot be depleted. While distributed generation is not a relatively new concept, it still is a rising approaching for providing electricity to the core of the power system.
Distributed generation is the energy generated near the point of use. The ongoing energy transition is manifested by decarbonization above all. Renewable energy is at the heart of global decarbonization efforts. Distributed energy systems are complimenting the renewable drive.
Distributed solar generation (DSG) has been growing over the previous years because of its numerous advantages of being sustainable, flexible, reliable, and increasingly affordable. DSG is a broad and multidisciplinary research field because it relates to various fields in engineering, social sciences, economics, public policy, and others.
Traditional distribution planning procedures use load growth to inform investments in new distribution infrastructure, with little regard for DG systems and for PV deployment. Power systems can address the challenges associated with integrating distributed solar PV into the grid through a variety of actions.
