Description
Summary:This report documents the results of an R&D project, titled "distributed energy resource (DER) demonstration", and covers the development, installation, operation and performance of DER equipment on the AEP distribution system. The intent of this R&D project is to demonstrate the concept of: 1) utilizing commercially available generation equipment as a means to reduce electrical peak load on thermally-loaded distribution station facilities; 2) deferring a major capital investment and allowing sufficient time to implement a plan to upgrade the 23 kV sub-transmission and station facilities to 69 kV; and 3) verifying the integrity of data security and use of wireless/digital cellular communication equipment at remote locations on the distribution system
