Mejoramiento del factor de potencia en redes de distribución con generación distribuida mediante la matriz de sensibilidad de voltaje

Abstract

This article makes a study at the level of distribution networks with distributed generation to improve the power factor to short, medium and long term, where demand tends to increase and the need to use renewable energies becomes essential to contribute to energy sustainability and environmental, which benefits new generations. This analysis is a necessary measure to contribute to the decentralization of large-scale generation, through the inclusion of small and medium-sized generation, which helps to minimize energy costs and where consumers become resilient users in the care and management of distributed generation, in addition to creating awareness in the use of environmentally friendly energies. The study involves the application of a quantitative and experimental model, where the active and reactive power variables are evaluated using the voltage sensitivity matrix, which allows improving the power factor in distribution networks with the help of the digsilent computational tool, which is responsible for efficiently managing an electrical system with variable demand. The mathematical model is developed on IEEE 13 and 37 bars electrical systems to prepare a prior roadmap for energy dispatch, referring to hours of low or high demand and future expansions of the electrical grid, due to the trend of increasing demand over time, both at residential, commercial and industrial levels.
