The increasing diffusion of distributed generation plants in recent years highlights problems concerning voltage regulation in medium voltage (MV) radial distribution networks.

Abstract

The increasing diffusion of distributed generation plants in recent years highlights problems concerning voltage regulation in medium voltage (MV) radial distribution networks. Among various possible control techniques able to regulate voltage profiles, intelligent systems based ones seems to be very promising. In particular, fuzzy control techniques are very interesting for a wide range of applicative fields like power distribution systems control, allowing regulation of voltage profiles handling uncertainty/vagueness and imprecise information. This paper presents a decentralized fuzzy based control technique finalized to realize a local regulation of voltage profiles at buses where wind power generators are connected, in order to avoid their disconnection. Validation of the proposed control system has been carried out by simulations conducted on a real MV Italian radial distribution system.
