The aim of this paper is to analyze how the dispersed generators can be used to effectively control the voltage of the distribution network. The technical and economical viability of this proposal can be assessed throughout a systematic analysis of how the voltage of the point of common coupling (PCC) increases as a function of the injected active power, and the required reactive power needed to maintain the voltage of the PCC to a given value.
