Abstract

This paper analyses the effects of Distributed Generation and Energy Storage on the distribution grid of a university campus, in particular the effects on power flow and voltage profile as a function of distance. The original grid is formed by three distinct distribution feeders and contains 50 distinct loads. The plan is to introduce distributed generation with 500kWp of photovoltaic generation and 455kW from natural gas micro-turbines, as well as an energy storage system with nominal capacity of 1000kW/3000kWh. The program used to model and simulate this grid was OpenDSS, using data made available by the local utilities company and the university itself.
