Abstract

An efficient tariff structure is such that it induces clients to use the network at times and places of least cost, thus reducing network investment requirements and stimulating the use of least cost energy alternatives. The Distribution Use of System Costs DUoSC are driven by two factors: the customer’s contribution to maximum demand, and the location of his connection to the grid.Cost reflective tariffs need to vary according to daily and seasonal time of use, depending on the situation of network load and also have some differentiation between regions with diverging network costs and load behavior. This way, customers can be incentivized to use the network more efficiently, at better times, and potential distributed generation can be directed towards load centers.Therefore, a new step towards the calculation of DUoSC with time-based and locational perspective needs to be prepared, for which the research project led by Empresa de Luz e Força Santa Maria – ELFSM is developing a new methodology that takes into account not only the customers contribution to maximum demand, but also his point of connection.Thus, this work proposes a novel methodology integrating the concepts of time-based and locational costs in order to enhance the knowledge of DUoSC and enable tariff setting in the presence of DG. The model will use geographic information as presented in Brasilian DSO databases and will obtain DUoSC through load flow simulation, considering the hourly costs and power flow of all distribution network segments.
