2. Frankfurt (Germany), 6-9 June 2011  Past: Only loads have been considered for distribution network planning Information about maximum loads have based on measures in RMU and number of customers Maximum loading of different equipment by diversity factors.  Today Generation has to be considered. Maximum utilization not definitely during peak load conditions Voltage / power quality becomes a critical factor in future Carsten Böse– Germany – Session 5 – Paper 0578 The needs in Network Planning will extremely change (1/2)

3. Frankfurt (Germany), 6-9 June 2011  Future: Data about consumption for each customer will be available (online/real-time) Actual status of the network can be calculated based on measurements also in distribution networks. Network operation and electronic components have to be taken into consideration Distribution network become more and more active network. New kind of loads are controllable (e.g. heat pumps, eCars, …)  Power System Planning has to consider “copper” and IT Carsten Böse– Germany – Session 5 – Paper 0578 The needs in Network Planning will extremely change (2/2)

4. Frankfurt (Germany), 6-9 June 2011 Example: 314kWp PV Plant near Erlangen Sunny day in April: 1,9 MWh Cloudy day in April: 1,2 MWh Carsten Böse– Germany – Session 5 – Paper 0578

5. Frankfurt (Germany), 6-9 June 2011 Carsten Böse– Germany – Session 5 – Paper 0578 Consideration of recorded loads and generation is the basis for future design  Meter Data Management Systems basis for load / generation model  meter data in 15 minutes intervals imported to PSS ® SINCAL  Identification of critical situations by “dynamic” simulations
