Análisis de los efectos técnicos y comerciales de la aplicación del marco normativo vigente sobre generación distribuida en la Empresa Eléctrica Regional Centro Sur C.A.

Abstract

Distributed generation systems are on the rise, increasing the technical challenges for energy distribution companies. Although the economic aspect is often overlooked, it has equal weight to the technical one. Issues such as power injection, new connections and infrastructure are key challenges. This project focuses on studying the technical and economic viability of implementing renewable generation and self-supply projects in the CENTROSUR distribution network. Real data from electric company customers is analyzed to obtain accurate results, with names spoofed to preserve privacy. Although the technical results are promising, the economic conclusions are not so promising. The electricity company must consider new tools to face the future with these emerging technologies.
