Methodology for Annual Load Profile Estimation at the Outgoing Feeder of Distribution Transformers in Urban Areas

Abstract

The planning of power distribution system has to consider new trends like electromobility and power‑to‑x applications. These new technologies can have a massive influence on the load flow, especially by increasing penetration in urban areas with high population density. Efficient network planning requires the knowledge about current grid utilization as accurate as possible. Since the monitoring of load low is not covering the entire medium and low voltage grid, the document provides a method for annual load flow estimation at the outgoing feeder of urban distribution transformers.
