16 DSO s VS access and planning process Planning The contribution of DER to firmness. Regulatory mechanisms from DER to deliver firm capacity to DSO s Distribution networks are designed for peak power, which is needed few DG is able to delay investments under some circumstances Regulatory mechanisms for firm capacity Low firmness periods Predictable and controllable primary source hours per year Low capacity required Many DG s 16

17 Active approach towards distribution network development, planning & access/connection Access Firm Non-Firm Connecti ion Firm Non-firm X Fit and forget approach Everything solved at the planning stage (passive networks) Only operation approach Everything is connected at the planning stage with no restrictions and solved at the operation stage (re-active networks) Active management approach Combine solution between planning and operation (Active networks) Fundamentals Connection: process for DER to be connected to network Access: ability to inject/withdraw energy to/from the network 17

20 Active System Management (New role for DSO) WHY? HOW? What? Decentralised and intermittent generation and DER challenge DSOs Active distribution system management ICT, rules & responsibilities for thesystem change 20

21 The key issue A new regulatory framework should cover all the DER aspects DG revenues and Incentives Access and Connection Model Roles and responsibilities Security of Supply and Quality of service System services with DER DSO incentives schemes and revenues 21

22 Information Exchange & new tecnology Ex-post information from TSO SCADA (real time exceptionally) LV: Very limited MV: P and V above certain capacity (sometimes via DSO) HV: P, V, Q (via DSO) - Depending on the level of automation TSO DSO DSO Distributed Generation: HV, MV, LV (µg) Real time (where needed): Power flow & voltage information, fault management. DSO->TSO: Aggregated P monitoring TSO-> HV DSO: Topology information Offline: TSO->DSO: Day-Ahead weather forecast and dispatch plans Real time (where needed): P, Q, V pf monitoring & control Offline: Maintenance, planned outages, day ahead setpoints Today Future Source: Eurelectric 22

25 Recomendations From distribution networks From renewables From DG connection From passive demand To distribution systems.. To real distributed generation.. To DG integration.. To active demand participation From passive networks From From networks and generation follow demand paradigm To active networks.. To a coordination between network users &network operators 25

26 Conclusions Active Distribution System Management is required to maximize the efficient and sustainable integration of a rising share of Distributed Energy Resources (DG, flexible loads, EV, Storage..) System services are key for DER integration to support system operation Distribution networks will evolve todistribution systems: Congestion management, voltage control, information exchange, connection and planning are fundamental tools to maintain security of supply & quality of service at the distribution level Define new roles and responsibilities and Coordination among all stakeholders and adequate regulation are necessary 26
