    Integrating Photovoltaic plants – the European challenge

    Integrating renewable energy into the low-voltage (LV) grid is a topic that we have discussed with over 40 DSOs in Europe and came to the understanding that a huge portion of new connection requests, especially for PV plants, are being rejected or significantly delayed.

    The challenge of connecting PV plants to the low-voltage grid is widespread among European DSOs (distribution system operators) and is causing significant concerns within the industry. To shed light on this problem, let us delve deeper into the various facets of this issue and explore potential solutions to address it.

    Integrating renewables with DER voltage control

    2022 was a record year for renewable capacity at 340GW and electricity generated by photovoltaics alone is expected to grow 15% per year until 2030 according to the International Energy Agency. However, integrating PV plants comes with challenges for both grid operators and plant operators. Grid edge intelligence and remote DER control can help protect, automate and balance our increasingly dynamic networks.

    Managing renewable energies: how voltage control schemes help

    The transition towards electrical energy generation from renewables is one of the key prerequisites for creating a greener and more sustainable future for all of us. Great progress has been achieved in integrating renewable sources into the network, and according to the International Energy Agency, the electricity generation specifically from photovoltaics will grow 15% per year until 2030. This is a success - however, the integration of photovoltaic plants also comes with quite a few challenges.
