Abstract

Large-scale integration of renewable energy (RE) resources into the electrical grid has increased significantly over the last decade, affecting the network at various nodes even at considerable distances from the common connection point. This paper presents an overvoltage assessment caused by the integration of two wind generators (WGs) into a low voltage distribution grid, which is structured into three zones. Two scenarios are studied, the first one considers the low voltage grid without WGs, representing its natural operating condition. In the second scenario, two WGs are connected in zone 3, inducing voltage rises at different nodes within the same zone, by reaching 7.9%, and affecting nodes located in other zones (Zone 1 and Zone 2). The simulation is performed using MATLAB/Simulink (R2025a), and the results obtained are compared to the standards test feeder IEEE 33-bus network, showing the overvoltage caused by WGs integration at nodes close to the connection point while improving voltage quality at distant nodes.
