The distribution system worldwide is designed to be radial, with power flowing one way from centralized generation sources to consumption.
This paradigm is being flipped over by the high penetration of DERs, in particular at the grid edges, changing from a centralized generation model toward a complex distributed infrastructure with potentially tens of thousands of controllable generators and prosumers.
The change in radial nature of the distribution grid, impacts nearly everything, including grid management, design, protection, planning, and commercial operations.
To cope with the complexity in the grid management case, the deployment of a centralized/decentralized grid management solution, with predictive/proactive features in order to implement the true #smartgrid is a mandatory step to keep up the pace with the requirement of the 21st century requirements.
