Abstract
Understanding network losses is important regarding energy efficiency and grid regulation. A method was developed to determine grid losses for each voltage level of a distribution grid and to investigate the influence of distributed generation and reactive power. The losses in an actual distribution grid in northern Germany with a high share of PV and wind energy are calculated.
