Analysis of Smart Technical Measures Impacts on DER and EV Hosting Capacity Increase in LV and MV Grids in the Czech Republic in Terms of European Project InterFlex

Abstract

The paper presents a methodology how to quantify a technical and economic impact of selected smart solutions on hosting capacity increase of Distribution Energy Resources (DERs) and electric vehicles (EVs) on low voltage (LV) and medium voltage (MV) level in a large distribution area in the future. The official Czech government documents called National Action Plan for Smart Grids (NAP SG) and Clean Mobility (NAP CM) published by Czech Ministry of Industry and Trade present several scenarios of future expected development of DERs and EVs. Comparison of business as usual and smart grid solutions is presented and monetized.
