This is the first national low-voltage network taxonomy that outlines the characteristics of Australian low-voltage distribution systems.
Report extract
In order to improve the hosting capacity of distributed energy resources (DER) across Australia, a greater understanding is required of low-voltage networks, to allow design and assessment of appropriate technologies and systems.
The National Low-Voltage Feeder Taxonomy Study is the first national low-voltage network taxonomy that outlines the real-world characteristics of Australian low-voltage distribution systems.
In doing so, we have developed a realistic, publicly available, dataset and models describing the most common types of low-voltage networks found in Australia.
