“…Power suppliers (distribution grid operators, energy retailers) target an efficient and fail-proof grid operation, for which a reliable forecast and control of electric loads is desired [7,8]. However, the intermittent nature of renewable energy production endangers the utility grid through voltage and frequency fluctuation [9,10]. The energy demand caused by charging EVs might further amplify this effect [11].…”

“…The energy demand caused by charging EVs might further amplify this effect [11]. To avoid these issues, power suppliers may influence the EV users' affection to connect their vehicles via dynamic energy prices [9,10,12]. At the same time, multiple EVs connected to the grid-especially if bi-directional charging is enabled [13]-help power suppliers to level out imbalances due to renewable energy generation [14].…”

Future power networks are certain to have high penetrations of renewable distributed generation such as photovoltaics (PV). At times of high PV generation and low customer demand (e.g., summer), network voltage is likely to rise beyond limits mandated by grid codes resulting in a curtailment of PV generation, unless appropriate control means are used. This leads to a reduction in energy yield and consequently reduces the economic viability of PV systems. This work focuses on scenario-based impact assessments underpinned by a net prosumer load forecasting framework as part of power system planning to aid sustainable energy policymaking. Based on use-case scenarios, the efficacy of smart grid solutions demand side management (DSM) and Active Voltage Control in maximizing PV energy yield and therefore revenue returns for prosumers and avoided costs for distribution networks between a developed country (the UK) and developing country (India) is analyzed. The results showed that while DSM could be a preferred means because of its potential for deployment via holistic demand response schemes for India and similar developing nations, technically the combination of the weaker low voltage network with significantly higher solar resource meant that it is not effective in preventing PV energy curtailment.

Some of the electrical power network assets such as transformers and switchgear assets were installed as early as the 1950s and are still in use today. 1 For example, the UK's National Infrastructure Delivery Plan 2016-2021 identifies that "much of the existing infrastructure which has served us well is now old" and that "major investment is required to accommodate new generation and replace aging assets". However, there is also a greater focus now on lowering the cost of deliveringThis is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
