Distribution System, Distributed Generation, Energy Audit and Loss MinimizationAbstract
The contribution of this work is presented in three stages. The restructuring problem for the distribution network will be considered as the initial stage of work. In this work the restructured Distribution feeder is analyzed using ETAP, which results loss minimization with good tail end regulation. The restructured feeder is implemented practically to achieve quality results. The second stage of the loss minimization works through the energy audit recommendation and incorporation of DG into the distribution system. The sensitivity analysis has been performed to determine the appropriate size and the operating point of DG. The implementation is tested to IEEE and TNEB Distribution feeder using ETAP. The third stage of work is to minimize the line loss and voltage regulation through HVDS concepts. In this work, a study has been carried out in TNEB system using ETAP software. An algorithm was used to convert LVDS to HVDS structure indicating the capacity of small transformer and their locations. It resulted with 10 to 30 % loss minimization with the implementation of all the proposed recommendation
