  - Acta Energetica - Year 2017

  The introduction of distributed generation into a low voltage grid may cause voltage problems in it. The paper discusses the effect of microgeneration on voltage levels in a low voltage grid. A real low voltage grid of considerable length was selected for the analysis. The grid primarily supplies residential buildings in a rural area. Results of tests that consider potential measures which could be applied in this grid to improve...

  This paper presents a method that supports the decision in terms on selecting the best option of a load connection to a low- or medium-voltage power distribution grid, and of a micro-generation source connection to a low-voltage grid. The method is based on the search for the option with the lowest aggregate assessment measure, which is the weighted average of partial assessment measures determined for each of eight considered...

  - TEKA Komisji Motoryzacji i Energetyki Rolnictwa - Year 2012

  This paper discusses the results of analyses investigating the energy efficiency of biomass in comparison with other popular energy carriers used for heating, ventilation and water heating in residential buildings. The compared energy sources were lignite, natural gas, heating oil and electricity produced by conventional and integrated power generation plants. The most efficient variant relying on biomass and the least efficient...

• Improving voltage levels in low-voltage networks with distributed generation – case study

  Publication

  • R. Kowalak
  • S. Czapp

  - Year 2018

  The use of distributed generation in low-voltage networks may cause the voltage variation in them, within the wide range. In unfavourable circumstances, the voltage may reach unacceptable values. The paper presents the effect of distributed generation on voltage levels in a selected low-voltage rural distribution network in Poland. An analysis of possible methods for improving voltage levels in this network is conducted. The most...
