• Units capable of smoothing intermittency caused by fluctuating power output
• Operational variables can be user-defined i.e. Ramp rate control, time constant

WEIL Signatory Page
Voltage Regulation Smart Inverters Illustrative Example
• Operating at different power
factor affects voltage
magnitude
• Large Gen at end of a line
• For an illustrative example
operating at a 0.7 power
factor can have 2 times the
generator rating as one
generator operating at unity
power factor while maintaining
the same voltage
• $1M for 2 MVA dynamic VAr
device
• $3M for 500 kW, 1500 kW
battery
• $1M/mile for re-conductoring
Summary
• Diversity of load increases moving to the system level
• System was designed to accommodate one way power flow
- Voltage regulation impacted by loading and DG
• PV and PEV have significant impact on the grid
- New approaches are required to mitigate intermittency
- NEM customers do not pay
- “Smart” inverters are a necessary tool to traditional alternatives
- Need to change PUC and Rules
- Storage provides maximum flexibility
- Can operate as a generator or a load at any power factor
