Hosting capacity of a university electrical grid considering the inclusion of wind-turbines for different background distortions

The introduction of distributed generation has affected power systems. The hosting capacity is used to determine the amount of generation that can be connected to the system without deteriorating its performance. This paper proposes the analysis of the hosting capacity regarding the inclusion of wind turbines considering different background distortions. A case study is performed on a Brazilian university distribution grid. The results shown that the hosting capacity varies significantly with the background distortion and becomes an important parameter when considering the inclusion of distributed renewable generation with non-linear characteristics.
