Study of the behavior of an electric power distribution system under the influence of photovoltaic generation

A study on the influence of the insertion of distributed generation in electric power distribution systems is presented. This study included the programming of a mathematical model corresponding to a photovoltaic solar panel, with the irradiance and temperature curves as inputs. The generated power values were applied to a generic generator installed on a test system modeled on the OpenDSS software. Finally, the voltage profile, power losses and the behavior of the power generated by the substation of the electric power distribution system, under different load and photovoltaic generation conditions, were evaluated.
