Potentials for asset optimizations in low and medium voltage networks through grid oriented feeding of distributed generation

Decentralized CHP micro units gain in importance for energy supply of residential buildings because of their high efficiency. The application occurs heat lead while the power- production happens not conform to the demand. By uncoupling operating times and thermal demand with a thermal storage system a gird oriented operation mode is possible to homogenize the grid load. This operation mode enables asset-optimizations in the low and medium voltage networks right from marginal penetrations of CHP micro units.
