Insertion of Photovoltaic Generation in the Planning of Electricity Distribution Systems Based on its Economic Potential

The objective of this work is to evaluate the insertion of DG-PV (Distributed Photovoltaic Generation) and its dissemination with the support of energy storage as a value option in the electric power distribution system, aiming at generating in the form of another product available to the consumer by the distributor. Methodologically, an algorithm is developed that first involves understanding the regulated market from a specific region and calculating LCOE for photovoltaic generation and the energy storage system. The methodology will evaluate the photovoltaic system at three times: acquisition, regular operation, replacement of the inverter, and battery bank replacement, each for one year. The results are based on reducing the generation costs of DG-PV (Distributed Photovoltaic Generation) combined with its potential for savings of scales. However, for the generation of 1.5kWp, there is a savings of scales of 60.113%, and for 10000kWp, a savings of scales of 26.478%.
