Using behind-the-meter reactive power to enhance residential operating envelopes (OEs)
- High penetration of residential distributed energy resources (DER) can create voltage and thermal issues in low voltage (LV) distribution networks.
- Operating Envelopes (OEs), i.e., time-varying export/import limits at the flexible customer connection point, are an effective solution to preserve network integrity.
- Behind-the-meter reactive power (Q) can counteract voltage deviations, enabling enhanced OEs.
