Abstract :
The Smart Grids context aims at bringing the distribution network accessible to new actors and in particular to renewable energy. Many solutions going from new planning methods to innovative operation modes are studied. Their efficiency is easy to evaluate regarding cost or reliability. Nevertheless, there is no official indicator able to evaluate their efficiency regarding renewable connection. The aim of this paper is to define such an index and to show its interest through several examples.
