Smart grid services provided by building energy management systems

The integration of decentralized energy resources is associated with new challenges for the operation of low voltage distribution grids. At the same time, the interconnection of these systems offers large potential for providing smart grid services to increase power quality and grid stabilization in areas with a high penetration of renewable energy sources. Therefore, new operation strategies for photovoltaic inverters are presented in combination with building energy management systems. The effect of a locally controlled feed-in is discussed based on simulation results of exemplary rural grid structures.
