Local voltage control in distribution networks using PI control of active and reactive power

Journal paper

This paper was presented at the XXII Power Systems Computation Conference PSCC in Porto, where a decentralized voltage control method is proposed, combining three strategies: support with reactive power, single-sided set point tracking of the upper voltage limit, and limitation using delta control.

The paper is published in the journal Electric Power Systems Research, Volume 212, November 2022, as part of a special issue on PSCC 2022.

Energy Storage for Voltage Control in LV Grids

Master Thesis

This master thesis performed by Ida Samnegård at Lund University, addresses overvoltage issues in low voltage grids caused by large solar power production. The suggested method uses PI controllers with BESS to absorb active power thereby limiting the voltage rise.
