We propose an efficient method for the assessment of localized voltage-constrained
distributed generation hosting capacity given an engineer's choice or estimate of a power …

Residential solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are interconnected with the distribution grid at
low-voltage secondary network locations. However, computational models of these networks …

Frequent changes in penetration levels of distributed energy resources (DERs) and grid
control objectives have caused the maintenance of accurate and reliable grid models for …

High penetrations of residential solar PV can cause voltage issues on low-voltage (LV)
secondary networks. Distribution utility planners often utilize model-based power flow …

Existing digital distribution network models, like those in the databases of network utilities,
are known to contain erroneous or untrustworthy information. This can compromise the …

Most residential photovoltaic (PV) systems are single-phase installations and, therefore, can
increase unbalance. More unbalance exacerbates voltage rise issues on certain phases …

Before residential photovoltaic (PV) systems are interconnected with the grid, various
planning and impact studies are conducted on detailed models of the system to ensure …

All new photovoltaic (PV) systems that interconnect with the power grid must now be
capable of various advanced inverter functions that can be leveraged to improve grid …

The identification and prediction of a power distribution system's topology is required for
reconfiguration of switches to redirect power distribution and for maintenance of the network …

The widespread adoption of residential solar PV requires distribution system studies to
ensure the addition of solar PV at a customer location does not violate the system …
