Project Description
• Model large scale distribution systems
for evaluating ADMS applications.
• Integrate distribution system hardware
in ESIF for PHIL experimentation.
• Develop advanced visualization
capability for mock utility distribution
system operator’s control room.
Evaluation of advanced DMS functions NREL is working with utilities and Vendors to evaluate advanced DMS applications like
VVO, FLISR, OPF and market participation of distribution assets in a realistic environment developed during this project.

TECHNOLOGY ADDRESSED Understand impacts of smart inverters on distribution systems and advanced distribution management systems
R&D STRATEGY NREL is working with GE Grid Solutions to implement a comprehensive modeling, analysis, visualization and hardware study using a representation of Duke Energy’s utility feeder.
IMPACT Enable greater adoption of smart inverters at utilities by addressing the challenges of integrating them with GIS, DMS, OMS and SCADA systems.
Operational Impacts of High Penetration of PV on a Representative Distribution Feeder in Duke Energy’s Territory
6
Objective:
Understand advanced inverter and distribution management system (DMS) control options for large (1–5 MW) distributed solar photovoltaics (PV) and their impact on distribution system operations for:
Active power only (baseline);
Local autonomous inverter control: power factor (PF) ≠1 and volt/VAR (Q(V)); and
Integrated volt/VAR control (IVVC)
Approaches:
Quasi-steady-state time-series (QSTS)
Statistics-based methods to reduce simulation times
Advanced visualizations
Power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) and Co-simulation
Cost-benefit analysis to compare financial impacts of each control approach.

Summary
Illustrates the potential for coordinated control of voltage management
equipment and the central DMS IVVC by:
Providing substantial improvement in distribution operations with large-scale PV
Reducing regulator operations
Decreasing the number of voltage challenges
The preliminary cost-benefit analysis showed operational cost savings for the
IVVC scenarios that were:
Partially driven by reduced wear and tear on utility regulating equipment,
but dominated by the use of CVR/Demand reduction objective
Work needed in the area of integrating advanced inverters as controllable
resources into IVVC optimization strategies
Event triggered operation of DMS IVVC
Power factor set point in place of reactive power set point
