Journal ArticleDOI
The potential impacts of grid-connected distributed generation and how to address them: A review of technical and non-technical factors
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential negative impacts at high penetrations include voltage fluctuations, voltage rise and reverse power flow, power fluctuations, power factor changes, frequency regulation and harmonics, unintentional islanding, fault currents and grounding issues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life‐cycle air emissions from PV power systems
TL;DR: In this article, the air emissions of grid supply versus grid-connected and off-grid photovoltaic power generation, using the framework of life-cycle assessment, in the context of rural household energy supply in Australia, are calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The future of Community Renewable Energy for electricity access in rural Central America
TL;DR: In this article, a comparative analysis from case studies across Panama, Nicaragua and Costa Rica was undertaken after field investigation conducted over eight months, and a cross-disciplinary method combining qualitative social research and techno-economic analysis of renewable energy power systems was then used for data integration and sustainability assessment of selected case studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peak load characteristics of Sydney office buildings and policy recommendations for peak load reduction
TL;DR: In this article, the potential for energy efficiency and demand management strategies in office buildings to reduce peak loads and hence defer electricity network augmentation is assessed. But, it was found that these measures could offer significant potential to defer network investment, with significant economic and environmental benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of grid‐connect photovoltaic systems: benefits, opportunities and strategies
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential impact of integrating photovoltaics (PV) into the Western Australian electricity networks is analyzed using real-time load and Australian Bureau of Meteorology climate data.
