EC 5: PLANNING OF POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
Chairman: dr Aleksandar JANJIĆ, Elektronski fakultet Niš
1. Forecasting consumption and production of electrical energy:
- Metodologies for the demand and production forecast
- Forecast of intermittent distributed resources
2. Network quality indicators: requirements, results and benchmarking:
- Comparison of economic and technical performance
- System reliability
- Assessment of technical and non-technical losses
- Increasing resilience to low-probability, high-risk extreme events
- Microgrids and local energy communities to increase security of supply
3. Network structures and criteria for network planning:
- Innovative solutions for enabling the energy transition (e.g. RES integration, electric vehicles, direct current distribution, flexibility, etc.)
- Active networks and smart networks
4. Planning methods:
- Distribution planning and flexibility
- Integration of distributed energy resources (distributed generation, storage, EV, etc.)
- Integration of EV installations for fast charging in the network
- Microgrids and local energy communities in distribution planning
