19 Agenda 4. solutions 4.1 grid reinforcement 19

20 Increasing amount of DG s causes in rural distribution grids: - in the first step voltage problems (voltage rise) - in the second step equipment overload (lines, transformers) a cost optimized solution is usually a combination of grid reinforcement and smart applications the reinforcement of a distribution grid is e.g.: - replacement of overhead line by underground cable - replacement of cables with low capacity - change of separators - additional feeders - replacement of distribution-transformers - additional secondary substations - replacement of HV/MV-transformers - additional primary substations 20

21 Agenda 4. solutions 4.1 grid reinforcement 4.2 optimization of planning parameters 21

36 Feed-in-management feed-in-management according to German EEG 2012 permitted only until full reinforcement of grid. From the perspective of grid operator a permanent feed-inmanagement would be helpful. Regulation of generation - Hydro power plants: only partly possible - biomass: only partly possible - No problems with PV s, in Germany since 2012 permitted 36

40 Agenda 1. Development of DG s using the example of E.ON Bavaria 2. Impact of increasing DG on the grid 3. Prognosis of PV 4. Solutions 5. Amount of grid-reinforcement 6. Conclusion 40

41 conclusion Grids are fundamental for energy system. Change of energy system causes big challenges for transmission- and distribution grids. Reinforcement of distribution grids must increase faster as expected due to change of energy system. Enormous investment is necessary for connection of DG. First estimations: billion until 2020 generation must support grid stability. 4 Grid operators can reduce reinforcement of grids by using smart and intelligent technologies (e.g. using full voltage range) 5 Storage development is absolutely important. Adjustment of regulation is necessary 41
