Future Electrical Distribution System (EDS) should be prepared to successfully integrate distributed generation (e.g. photo-voltaic generation) as well as to meet the demand growth. In this context, the expansion of the EDS must to be planned in order to reduce the construction cost of substations and circuits together with the corresponding operation cost. In addition, a suitable operati…
The constant development of battery technologies motivates the interest in their adoption in the Electrical Distribution System (EDS). Despite the benefits they can provide to the EDS, investments in battery systems are still high; therefore, the planning of its allocation (at which node of the electrical network it will be connected), sizing (module capacity and inverter power) and opera…
The increase on EV adoption leads to the growth of the demand in the distribution network. A simultaneous charge of a large number of EVs can result in overloads and voltage values below the limits set by regulators. Thereby is necessary to implement a coordinated EV charging scheme to maintain proper system operation. On the other hand, energy storage systems (ESSs) allows the injection/…
The increase in the photovoltaic generation is a challenge for the operation of the electrical distribution systems (EDSs) due to overvoltage, overloads, and increasing system losses caused by the excess of generation. Thereby, energy storage devices, such as batteries, can be used to keep a proper operation of the EDS in which technical limits could be met while renewable generation is h…
The integration of renewable energy resources and new technologies in future electricity distribution networks requires planning methodologies that accurately consider the uncertainty associated with the output power from the renewable sources and the demand growth. To that aim, novel optimization methodologies for the multi-period expansion planning problem of distribution systems will b…

Electrical Distribution Systems (EDS) must operate considering economic, reliability and security criteria. Nowadays, distributed generators as well as renewable energy sources must be integrated to the EDS in order to satisfy growing demands and greenhouse-gas emission reduction goals. Operation problems such as Volt/VAr control and plug-in electric vehicle charging coordination must be …
