description | Abstract Commercial off‐the‐shelf (OTS) photovoltaic systems coupled with battery energy storage units (PV‐BES) are typically designed to increase household self‐consumption, neglecting their potential for voltage regulation in low voltage distribution networks (LVDNs). This work proposes an enhanced sensitivity‐based combined (ESC) control method for voltage regulation, using BES control as level 1 and reactive power compensation as level 2. A centralized controller manages charging/discharging intervals, while local inverters handle real‐time power rates and reactive power, ensuring effective LVDN voltage regulation. The BES set points are obtained concerning the measured local bus voltage and according to enhanced sensitivity coefficients. The enhancement algorithm ensures that the full capacity of BES is utilized and that there is adequate capacity during charging and discharging time intervals. The proposed method, tested on 8‐bus and 116‐bus LV test feeders, outperforms OTS and an adaptive decentralized (AD) control method by completely preventing overvoltage issues, minimizing various changes in the direction of BES power, and reducing voltage deviation without significantly affecting consumers' grid dependency. |
