Solving the problem of excessive voltage rises caused by rooftop solar using voltage-regulating distribution transformers (VRDT): a regulatory and technical evaluation
2019
The paper has analysed grid code requirements, regulatory framework settings and DNSP
responsibilities for distribution network augmentation in Germany and Australia driven
by the growing grid integration of dispersed generation based on renewables. VRDT
technology has proven in Germany to be an adequate technical solution for helping to
solve voltage disturbances in LV and MV-networks. As over-voltages are getting more and
more common in Australia as PV penetrations exceed 30% in most regions in Australia,
local DNSP have also started trialing VRDT technology.
